In the last TWiT podcast they talked about Viral Advertising as if it were something new.
William Gibson wrote about it in his last book Pattern Recognition.
Makes you wonder how often this new form of advertising is assulting us.
While watching the closing ceremonies of tonights Olympics - a man burst onto the stage and
started screaming while a speach was being given. The commentators immeadiately ponder,
terrorist? Later in the broadcast they clarify that it was someone hawking for an Online Casino...
Sneaky Viral Advertising??? How can you tell in this day and age.
I was also wondering about a post here in Off Topic from a few weeks ago exalting the
effectiveness of a certain sleep aid.
yikes...
