personal ads

The Apple PC guy/ Mac guy ads are well known. The series with Justin Long and John Hodgman has become a cultural phenomenon being parodied and copied wide and far. Apple has taken the ads online with a new campaign that combines the fun of the original TV ads with a creative use of site ad space. Instead of simply using a video ad the campaign utilizes a right hand box and a top leaderboard with both characters appearing to look at the leaderboard as the message there fails presenting a negative message on Vista. The campaign has been spotted on sites including Engadget. PCMag and News com where on the later it was also displayed on a page reviewing Vista. Clever stuff from Apple. Ad video below : PC and Mac are represented here in the UK by comedy duo David Mitchell and Robert Webb. Webb (Mac) is a skinny cool-sort-of-guy while Mitchell (PC) is fat and round-faced so the advertisers obviously thought they’d found a good match. Of course in their various works Webb tends to play characters who are thick shallow and annoying while Mitchell tends to play intelligent and likable if insecure characters. So it’s an even more perfect fit but not in the way Apple intended. @5: Apple could run an advert in which they cut a cat’s throat in front of her kittens then stamped on the kittens one by one as some tosser declaimed “This is what using a PC is like” and the fanboys would still love them. They’d probably win even more awards for originality. Negative advertising is arrogant and irritating - comparing prices and concrete stats is ok (if done honestly) but just going ‘hahaha these guys suck’ makes you look like an arsehole because you are. But Apple a gigantic corporation that sells overpriced electronic goods and is even more obsessed with making people do things ‘their way’ than Microsoft is treated by hacks and fans as if it was a local mom and pop outfit that can do no wrong. Never underestimate the power of positioning yourself as a beleaguered and oppressed minority. What works for fundamentalist Christians and Muslims also works for savvy marketers. Whether you are actually oppressed or whether you’re even actually a minority is totally irrelevant. There used to be a convention in advertising that you didn’t directly name a competitor in an ad but that went by the boards with the Pepsi Challenge. I think Apple has been smart to key in on the fact that younger consumers today grow up in a culture of snarky sarcasm where standards are few and far between. So ridiculing a competitor is considered cool. Microsoft as the dominant player in the space has been careful not to elevate Apple’s importance by directly attacking them in ads but with bricked iPhones. Leopard install glitches etc it’s not as if they don’t have ammunition they could fire back if they wanted to. May be creative but it’s poorly integrated - users have complained about crashing browsers freezing memory hogging and sound problems. Very irritating unless you are on a high-speed connection that can stream the video the buffering is poorly done resulting in a looped video with no pause function. Apple should stop whilst they are kind of amusing if somewhat based on loose ‘facts’ it’s getting lame pretty fast. It’s clever use of the Flash ‘Shared Objects’ in Flash - which can allow two Flash objects to ‘talk’ to each other. (We use them on podcast com for the ‘playnow’ and ‘add to playlist’ buttons) Cleaver ad their best so far. Maybe I should switch to a Mac. I mean. I’d be the cool guy at the coffee shop that looks hip because he has the latest fad. While I am at it because I am so insecure and rely on pop culture to define my identity. I should buy the most popular clothes get an iPhone ipod and start listening to some top 40. I mean. I would rather be the 1337 d00d with an STD than chubby and made fun of; because my own insecurities ya know. I can’t wait for the “next” thing Mac comes out with. I need an identity hurry please and help me fit in. Most of the Mac stuff is total fud. Linux is way better and it’s free.“but if you try it……”Dude don’t even go there if that’s what you were thinking we use Mac here every stinking day. That being said. I would use a Mac before Windows any day of the week. Just never before Linux. The ads well they are teh geh. The free markets have yelled out pretty loud where the Apple platform fits. It has lots of good applications but it never has and never will become a market leader in personal computing. Their well executed marketing campaigns are entertaining but other than feeding the mac zealots inferiority complexes they have little impact on changing market share. I think the ads are having some issues on news com. When this ad first showed up the “Don’t Give Up” banner wasn’t there. Now it’s there but only lights up once unlike the Mac Rumors sighting. Personally. I think it’s better without the banner. The off-screen. “Pulp Fiction”-esque “What’s in the Briefcase” glow was what made click to hear with sound in the first place. It’d be a more intriguing ad if it wasn’t spelled out. I enjoy the ads and recognize them for what they are. That doesn’t make them any less entertaining. By the way being a retired college professor in the computer science field I of course taught PC based applications etc however after trying a Mac several years ago I’m a convert! So much more stable and useful than a PC! My Dell just sits in the corner for the most part while I use my MacBookPro with Leopard! In fact a Mac makes a very good Vista machine. I dual-boot (triple-boot) between Mac OS X Leopard. Windows XP Pro and Windows Vista Ultimate.

Online dating has had its fair overlap of bad press. MSN posts articles occasionally that broach with the different horror stories dealing with online personals that have turned out to be a disaster. Why? It is because some people do not be at the fine print of dating personals to understand the difference between a stalker a married individual looking for some extracurricular fun or someone who is genuinely interested in finding a potential partner? Not all personal ads are alike. Many may seem to describe that perfect someone but you have to pay close attention to the ad. There are con artists out there and though the internet has brought us closer together it has also increased the likelihood of running afoul by a less than scrupulous person. If an ad seems too good to be true chances are that it is. If the person's photo seems like a professional picture or they mention another website or make a reference to immediate love…delete the ad block the person and forbid them like the plague. Online dating sites often employ writers to revamp a person's personal ad for a fee. A great way to express if a person's ad has been written by another person is by the first few email exchanges. If the person's ad had exceptional grammar and was descriptive yet their telecommunicate messages are filled with errors it is a big roll that the site helped write the personal ad for them. If you still want to give online dating a shot you absolutely must have safety precautions in displace before you agree to give the person your telecommunicate number or meet them for a date. Cell phones can now be traced back to an individual's communicate so giving out your cell phone number is not safe anymore. The key is to treat every ad with a bit of skepticism and a healthy dose of common sense. Singles sites be on the internet but not everyone is single. There are some websites such as Eharmony that check for married individuals looking for an affair but it is not a foolproof method. Some online dating websites are perfectly fine with married people looking for other people but it is a slippery slope. Personal ads should be required to ask if someone is married but ultimately you have to take the responsibility for yourself to look for signs that the person is already taken. With a little caution and attention to detail online dating can lead to many wonderful adventures in the dating world. People all over the world are finding their matches online and are having great success. It is not impossible to find the person of your dreams you just have to keep your eyes wide open and avoid the potholes along the way to true love.
