Devote time to bettering the product, not lying about it
I don't like Microsoft's Mojave Experiment commercials at all. The whole concept is silly to me. They're spending tens of millions of dollars to convince consumers that Vista is a great operating system as long as it's not called Vista. As if all the bad vibes associated with Vista are unfounded...

Social networking? Nope. Never heard of it.
There is no shortage of research pointing to the fact that the web still isn't nearly as 'social' as it might seem to those of us who live and work in marketing, technology and social media. I've blogged about this before. Just because blogging, vlogging, virtual worlds, microblogging and mob...
