Just Another Social Profile Really

At this point, writing a post about the ongoing fiasco at Techcrunch is a bit like pointing out that bears like doing their business outdoors or that the chap who lives in Rome with the big hat happens to be a Catholic. But, as a reader of Techcrunch, I think it’s worth getting a few [...]

I was flicking through TechCrunch a moment ago and noticed that they had also published the Barack/Wassup YouTube ad. The post, by TechCrunch owner Michael Arrington, made no suggestion as to the rights or wrongs of the candidate, but merely suggested that it was a pretty cool video.

Berocca, the hang-over cure vitamin supplement beloved by millions of binge drinkers health nuts have jumped into the world of Web 2.0 and are engaged in a bit of social media marketing.
