I love these guys

I love these guys. I finally am seeing a really fantastic alternative to traditional "interruption" marketing, and this new marketing system isn't really anything like Seth's "storytelling." Nosireebob, these guys have a whole new, customer centric way of marketing.

Stay with me now. You are visiting a website that has kids games on it (my eight year old) and are prompted on screen that your machine has detected a dangerous virus and you "MUST CLICK HERE!". So the dutiful 8 year old clicks. (giggling: this is just so cooooool).

Now, you infect, er..., uh, discreetly install... yeah, that's it... discreetly install some tricky software that now puts a PORN feed right on your desktop. Now some stupid, luddite folks may not understand how cool that is, so you make it non-removeable. That is sheer genius.

But... it get's better. You infe.., discreetly install, some software that makes it entirely impossible to use the computer. You can't use the internet or any applications because of this clever marketing masterpiece.

Now, damn almighty, I can't wait to buy stuff from the folks who did this to my computer. I am nearly chomping on the bit to buy stuff from them. As a matter of fact I would like to meet them in person to tell them exactly what I think of their incredibly thoughtful marketing strategy... taking down my PC that I need to actually do work. Gets me all tingly.

So, hey... any hackers out there wanna meet me? You wanna? Come on, don't be scared. Come on down, boys. I just wanna have a chat with you.

And yes, I will gladly do the time.
