I think the above picture explains a lot about what distracts a student (or just about any consumer) whenever they are trying to do something productive.

With all this time consumer spend in this so called “Bermuda Triangle”, what can marketers do to tap into this medium?  Well a lot of them have done so already, but let’s just take a look at what Facebook has been able to do.

You might have noticed a while ago that Facebook has managed to match your profile settings and show you personalized ads.  If you enable this “instant personalization”, partner websites will be able to take your information and further personalize their ads to target YOU.

honestly, i’ve never paid much thought to the marketing that goes around.  every once in a while i’d run across some funny commercials or advertising campaigns on youtube.

these ads are just hilarious.  i can watch them over and over again and they never get old.

these ads were such an internet phenomenom/meme that even grover (from sesame street) made a parody!

old spice also had some that were… quite disturbing before.

even though i found these ads funny, i actually never decided to switch brands or even decide to try old spice products out.  but the one thing i did do was send it to many of my friends.. does that make me an advocate?
