Google Coupons, Penguins March, Mac Attacks

guinness_march.jpg

- In an effort to prove that online ads actually do lead to brick-and-mortar purchases, Google today will start allowing merchants to distribute printable coupons via its mapping service, Google Maps.

- Here's yet another March of the Penguins riff. This time it's for Guinness and it's really not that good.

- With up to 20 new spots, Apple is extending its current campaign with Mac dud Justin Long.

- OK, OK. We'll point to this stupid office sex study that claims the public relations industry, despite what some might think, doesn't cheat very much.

- Dumb.

Ah yes, but the average agency copywriter isn't old enough to remember back that far:-)
