Have you seen:
...Zachary Christie---6 years old--going on 30...watch for his documentary
...the AMP iphone app---PepsiCo
in a nut shell...'pick a chick..get free coaching for pick-up lines'
a.] disliked by: numerous callers--"contributes to the objectification of women"l
b.] promoted by: Boston Dating Coach- Thomas Edwards on his blog-"this actually could be useful for
someone you went on multiple dates with." ...he noted: "a guy could pull up links to local vegan
restaurants is he were dating a ' tree hugger type'
PepsiCo tweet: "Our app tried 2 show the humorous length guys go 2 pick up women. We apologize if it's in bad taste & appreciate your feedback"
O-O-O-Kay!
cell phone "pick up lines via Links" [the 'pick a chick' are my words / they use words- more mature ?]
a Dating Coach...
a Humorous app---How so-- Guys, I would revolt & question just who / whom designed this app-perhaps the
same group that has been designing most of the TV ads [seen last few years]
PepsiCo--BAD PR idea---good tweet--under 140 characters.
++++++++
Have you ever questioned:
...the effectiveness of Cialis TV ads
...1 female & 1 male
...ending up in SEPARATE claw-footed tubs
...in the outdoors
...holding Hands
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
some one kind of " missed the whole point"
BUT, on the other hand...
these ads are still better than discovering that you are humming along with the catchy song on an ad--only to
realize that the ad in question is the ad for VIAGRA
"VIVA [ Las Vegas... } VIAGRA
!
++++++++
Google Wave
saw on AgentGenius.com today:
article by Benn Rosales--a main contributor / developer of web site [Great site]
...a beta app...alows for interactive, immediate communication & collaborating via the net
...you need to be "invited" to participate
...go to site for google Wave..sign in with your google accnt. info....scroll to button: "request an invitation"
I got as far as finding "how to" but didn't click on "request an invitation"...
a] this is a 'beta' app.
b] google knows that I try & shortly thereafter remove a 'beta' app
c] and, IF I had clicked the button, begging for[ whoops-requesting an invite}- It would = REJECT
My concern in this 'new way to interact' is that if contracts are openly presented, with all parties participating
in the "wave" of the moment--would you want clients to be able to change, delete, re-organize, etc ?
would you trust the "security" to do this on line? perhaps I am 'dating' myself here, but my "alert sign" Is
flashing overtime. If it is true, that all our Clients in the near future will be participating in the G.Wave, then
some training seems to be on "to-do" lists. [especially Sal & I]
+++++++
Google Chrome and ME
...did reload on this computer
...no longer a 'beta'
...forcing self to keep it at least until Friday
...really, REALLY like the igoogle browser/ home page much more
...cannot find list of History / sites visited & do NOT get the Chrome page with all the "little windows" that
may or may not represent History
...I love to change things, just ask Sal, he'll tell you so, however--this is a:
different google,
different searches,
different processes--they seemed to have changed the AR up load window for photos, gifs,etc.
++++++++
All in all--a very interesting day if truth be told & for those of you who already knew ALL of this--
well, Have a Laugh on me
[Can ANYONE explain why auto-drafts are occurring every 3 minuets-how can this be changed? Is it on my computer? I know that it is NOT a Chrome issue]
