Astroturfing

Today at work I was talking with (e:Paul) and (e:Tony)(?) about (WIKIPEDIA - astroturfing), which is when companies or organizations try to create the image of broad or spontaneous support from the general public but really it's all bought and paid for and basically just sleazy marketing (astroturf, as in fake grass - not really grassroots).

Paul was talking about how Sprite faked up rap concerts and paid cool kids to go and look cool and the broadcast it all on MTV as though everyone else was paying to be there, when really Sprite was footing the bill. So now Sprite is the face of of rap or something ridiculous.

Read through some of those examples on the linked wikipedia page - how cynical do you have to be to try something like this?

The First of Many

Our neighbors have a scary porch. It's sagging, but looking at it I don't know where it is going to. The post looks like it's shrinking, not sinking or bowing out (although the face boards are popping off). The base looks fine but the top is way too low.

I am not sure how that can be. One night we'll be woken to the sound of it crashing in to our bedroom.

iphone keyboard

It's working pretty good but I wish when it made suggestions it would give a few options instead of one at a time.

I'm typing this post from it and haven't had to hit backspace once yet. For me it's a big step up, but Paul I'm sure you'd be frustrated by the non-802.11 wireless speeds. Not too bad though definitely usable.

There is no way to upload files through regular web pages which is pretty annoying. Have to email them or sync to get photos off.

All in all I love it. Those are my only complaints as far as basic functionality go.

Well That Didn't Last Long

I got one. An iPhone. The number I was assigned is awesome. The number is sort of like a full house in poker, if you think about it.

435-5888

or

HELL-888

or

HELL-TUTU

If only it was 666.

iPhone

I've always used a pretty basic cell phone. But now I am thinking it's time to get a real phone.

Paul - are you lining up somewhere on Friday to get yours?
