Careful, the blogs have ears!

There’s no doubt that bloggers are proving to be more than a handful for the high and mighty (DELL, Neil French, Kryptonite for example).

Which is why companies and company executives better think carefully, before they act stupidly (or arrogantly, aggressively, arbitrarily, whatever…)

Here’s the latest example of how a great company (which I normally admire), goofed when sending out a supposed morale boosting memo to its people who just lost a pitch. George Parker gives us the spoken and the unspoken words!

  1. Nosh,

    Care to send me George Parker’s article? MY ISP is still living in 2005 and refuses to un-block typepad.

    Thanks!
