"US regulators will for the first time crack down on bloggers who fail to disclose fees or freebies they get from companies for reviewing products. The Federal Trade Commission, decided to update its nearly 30 year old guidelines to clarify the law for the vast world of blogging. Offenders could face eventual fines of up to $11,000 (GBP 6,900) per violation."

when I first setup my blog I contacted several companys, geeks.com, etc. and asked about doing reviews of products and got told sorry we don't do that anymore....
It works the other way around. First you build a very successful and influential blog with a lot of readers. Then the companies will contact you and ask you to review their products.
