Prime Time Ads
Quite the advertising time the networks are having. Wow. It seems as though the new ABC show “Commander in Chief” has a fake blog setup. I also read about a whole bunch of stuff going on with My Name is Earl on NBC. I will give it the fact that it was a funny premiere. I just think the advertising opportunities being used online nowadays are quite cool, and pushing marketing deparments to the limits. I mean, having a fake blog running (with fake bloggers) about President Mackenzie Allen is quite interesting — kind of like a prime time Blair Witch Project.
I’m dying to see more and more of this — the crossover of the fake TV world into the real world. Bloggers, prepare to start jacking up your entry-level salaries. Companies are staring the hunt for you.
It’s only a matter of time before Harvard graduates say, “yah, I have an MBA — but you’ll really be interested in my minor in blogging; I can take your company to the top of Technorati!”
Yikes.
