– Copyranter hates, really hates Niche Media publisher Jason Binn and his prickish self importance. W don’t know him but we think we hate him too after reading about his recent behavior

– Smaller sized newspapers are better. Especially if your laying in bed and your spouse needs a hand.

– BlogAds Founder Henry Copeland marvels at the Washington Post’s description of its new blog ad service as “the next big, slightly-outside-the-mainstream idea.”

– Intentional or not, the upside down version of this ad brings a whole new meaning to this flooring company’s slogan, “Laid by the Best.”

– Not at all related to marketing – unless, of course, it turns out to be some stealth promotion for the next zombie flick which it won’t because it’s just a fun little flash mob gig – but a mob of zombies attacked San Francisco Saturday. And Vancouver.
