Marketing-induced Dizziness

U2-style Friday Flash Fun. They join the ranks of Flash game marketeers in the promotion of their new single, Vertigo, and upcoming album, How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. And by the way, someone found the contents of that briefcase that got stolen in Portland 23 years ago.

Boy (heh), I haven't bought a U2 rekkid in at least 10 years, but I still find myself strangely pleased that all the October-era lyrics/photos/letters were finally recovered.

That said, I think the player in the Flash game should, of course, be avatars of the Boys themselves.

I like the song much better than the game.

Forget that-- did you read about the U2 iPod? It's going to be black. And, uh, it comes with the new album pre-loaded, but whatever. A black iPod. Whoah.

Okay, sorry, not enough sleep.

But like, cool.
