WHAT THE HELL IS VIRAL MARKETING ?:confused:
Viral marketing, as the name might suggest, is a means by which you get the (internet) public to transmit your desired information amongst itself like an infection, of their own free will and usually disguised as something unrelated to the matter at hand. The (

You forgot to explain why you pulled me up for using said perfectly reasonable term earlier.

Because they show the ads incessantly on TV in the US and because the ad is on their site, not being mailed around with an "OMG LOOKE ATHIS!"

And because it was AN AD: overtly, unabashedly, blatantly, manifestly an advertisement for a product. There was absolutely nothing viral about it.
and because you insulted one of my favorite songs. :mad:

Who would that be then? Back in Black was the first album with Brian Johnson, and the first recorded after the death of Bon Scott.*
It also has currently sold over 42 million copies. It's also the 2nd best selling album of all time. It's also the best selling album ever by a band.** It's not past it's sell-by date, and the whole world isn't listening to ambient now. Only you wierdos around here.;)
Geezus StD - Next you'll be forgetting that Vivian Campell isn't an ORIGINAL member of Def Leppard.
Kids these days... :rolleyes:

Ok but still, AC/DC ya know?

fett has been off his game these last few days. Oh wait...like I'm one to talk.:o
But Stronts has a point...it IS cock rock. I don't know how many times I've gotten laid 'cause I can totally rip on AC/DC songs.;)

I finally decided to stop reading the threads in their entirety and just post post post!! :D
Is AC/DC really 'cock-rock'? I tend to put bands like Posion and Bon Jovi in that category. Hard to lump AC/DC in with them.
