Politics and Advertising should not mix

15 August 2009

There’s an interesting boycott war going on out there right now, all over Glenn Beck. It all started (I believe) with this video. Apparently it has had some success as some advertisers are pulling out of the Beck program, because many people are offended by the guy or something. These offended people set up [...]

BCBSDE website stupidity

8 March 2009

In this morning’s News-Journal paper I see an advertisement for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Delaware’s website where it lists all the wonderful things you can do on it, like order a replacement ID card.

SMS short codes and the evil that is M-cube

21 February 2009

This post is to document frustrations I had removing a monthly charge from M-cube to my wife’s cell phone for $9.99 a month from the SMS short code of 44999. Now most sane people would just contact their cell phone provider and complain right away, but I’d figure I’d just do it the way you [...]

Maddox is an idiot

10 March 2005

So, I’m figuring since I’m the last person on the planet without a blog (my wife has FIVE, believe it or not), I figured the time has come. And like all typical boring blogs, I’ll have to write about someone else’s blog, specifically Maddox’s rant on Orbitz. OK, so he got screwed by Orbitz, but [...]
