"And how well trained you are...starting a thread based on your emotion, based on the reaction you had to the cover of the NY Post. Viral Marketing could not be taught better than that."
Okay, for real, I want people to stop talking about viral marketing as if it is a new concept that is the result of business training. Let's all just admit that it is just a term WE use to convince clients that our ideas are fresh.
"Viral Marketing" is simply creating word of mouth and has been around since the dawn of time. Should we not talk about ideas anymore just because they were originated from a media outlet or from the Evil Corporatocracy? Yes, let's not discuss anything anymore because we're actually spreading viral marketing plans.
Let's not talk about how an Anti-Gay Marriage Amendment is discrimination because we read about it in the papers, which are owned by conglomerates like Knight Ridder.
Is the general consensus that if an idea you don't agree with is talked about, then it is viral marketing originating from the government or a corporation? This IS a conspiracy to take away the rights of others, yes, because the country where live has done that since its inception. But if this were truly viral marketing, it would be poorly planned because it has the effect of people like us doing something against it, namely, discussing why it is wrong.
If we don't talk about it, how will it change? So cut it out with the conspiracy theory viral marketing junk. It's not helping.
