Posted by Ellie Mirman on Mon, Dec 03, 2007 @ 08:30 AM
As follow-up to my previous post on the Fun World of Marketing, here is the second installment of Fun World of Marketing: Link of the Week. This week's link is dedicated to... well, you know who you are.
Support - via text message - for those trying to quite smoking. Very cool stuff. I love how I continually find new ways technology revamps traditional products or services.
As a contrast to my last statement, I am actually reminded of a joke from Mike Birbiglia. So for your reading pleasure (and hopefully Mike won't mind me reproducing his joke here on my blog):
"I get really annoyed with technology. They don't make better technology, they just combine stuff. Like you go to buy something, everything's also a camera. They'll be like, 'It's also a camera!' I'm like, 'I just wanted a grapefruit.' They're like, 'It's a camera grapefruit. You take pictures of yourself eating the grapefruit, and then you eat the camera, and you shit the pictures!' Oh my god, that is the opposite of what I wanted."
- Mike Birbiglia, as heard on Invite Them Up
