Linkbait of the day: Virgin America's guest stars.

Want to get covered by blogs? Include bloggers in an ad. Want to get dugg? Mention Kevin Rose. Never mind that the Diggnation videocast / podcast isn't really a blog. Here's the lineup:

Boing Boing; Technorati 100: #3; Alexa 2,382:

• Xeni Jardin
• Cory Doctorow
• David Pescovitz
• Mark Frauenfelder, #7 on NxE's Fifty Most Influential Bloggers
• (missing: John Battelle who added ads in 2004)

Engadget; Technorati 100: #1; Alexa 501:

• Pete Rojas, Founder and Editorial Director, #6 on NxE's Fifty Most Influential Bloggers
• (missing: Ryan Block, Editor-in-Chief ... plus 27 others)

Diggnation at Revision3; Alexa 11,812

• Alex Albrecht
• Kevin Rose, #2 on NxE's Fifty Most Influential Bloggers

OK, I took the bait. What are they selling? The VA Difference. Feature #1:

the first U.S. airline with mood lighting.

Hmm; can't say that's something I missed on a recent 7+ hour flight across the Atlantic. More useful: 100v power at every seat. A selection of movies is also on the list, but it's pay-per-view.

It will be interesting to see how much coverage Virgin gets. Meanwhile, it's yet another way for top bloggers to earn money.

Hat tip: Techmeme

Update at 3:45 pm: Though I hate to link to Valleywag, a comment on their post points to a Twitter note from Xeni Jardin:

none of us at BB received tix, miles, any form of compensation for this, nor will we.

Hmm; fame over fortune?
