– Seth Godin is launching a members-only social network for marketers called Triiibe. It’s like Fight Club — for ideas. “Spots are limited and early members get privileges and bragging rights” — and discount opps for his new book. My God, Seth, who do you think you are — Obama?

– To Indonesian fans: Alicia Keys is very sorry for doing a gig sponsored by Philip Morris. (So soon after all the goodwill gleaned post-Africa, too.)

– The Scrabulous app on Facebook is officially dead.

– Burger King recycles Dark Whoppers. Well, the ads, anyway.

– Learn how to kiss with a pro named Ross. Ready to reciprocate? (What’s all that crap he’s licking up?!! Ohmigod, it’s SPELLING SOMETHING!) Brought to you by the sickos at Converse and On a Shoestring Films — whose website is oddly comforting after you’ve lost the contents of your stomach.
