Really, Really Bad Marketing

Insert Mel Gibson joke here.

MUMBAI, India - A new restaurant in India’s financial hub, named after Adolf Hitler and promoted with posters showing the German leader and Nazi swastikas, has infuriated the country’s small Jewish community.

Hitler’s Cross, which opened last week, serves up a wide range of continental fare and a big helping of controversy, thanks to a name the owners say they chose to stand out among hundreds of Mumbai eateries.

“We wanted to be different. This is one name that will stay in people’s minds,” owner Punit Shablok told Reuters.

Well, this just gives me the courage to carry out my big marketing idea - a restaurant called Pol's Pot, where a wonderful fusion of Eastern and Western dishes will be on the menu.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

There are over 500 million active members currently using Facebook. Putting it into perspective, if Facebook were a country, it would have the 4th largest population on the planet.

Good luck getting people behind this one. Although you make some VERY fascinating factors, youre going to have to do more than bring up just a few things that may completely different than what weve already heard. What are attempting to say right here? What do you want us to think? It looks like you cant really get behind a singular thought. Anyway, thats simply my opinion.
