I read about the launch of the Microsoft Affiliate Network over at Mike Allen’s blog on ReveNews yesterday.
Interesting stuff – according to Mike, who received an invite to join the affiliate program…
This network, which “exclusively encompasses all the Microsoft premier affiliate opportunities,” launched today and is built on a customized version of Kowabunga’s MyAP v9 affiliate tracking and management technology.
The rumor mill has already started over whether Microsoft is interested in acquiring KowaBunga/Kolimbo from Think Partnership. If that were to happen, I’d appreciate if all parties involved would issue the press release at Affiliate Summit.
The affiliate program is by invitation only, but you can get more details and submit an application at http://www.microsoftaffiliates.net/.
I applied last night and got an auto-reply that they will be reviewing my application and will get back to me within 1-2 business days.

Very cool, I just applied! On another note, ThinkPartnership stock is up 20% today!
Yeah, just one offer for Windows Live OneCare — I was expecting at least a few participants. Oh well, it’s a beat and we got a sneak peak.
That was quick – I was manually accepted into their program in less than 12 hours.
Here is a sample of their creative:
