– Wal-mart is getting attacked in a new campaign which decries the chain’s wgae, benefit and employee practices. It’s so muh fun being a big box retailer, isn’t it?

– Dell has decided to blah, blah, blah Second Life in order to blah, blah, blah so that it can strengthen its blah, blah, blah and connect with its blah, blah, blah. Next.

– In the works since last Summer, the new Colonel Sanders has made his debut. This is about as boring as the whole visible from space thing incorrectly claimed to have been a first when Maxim already did it with Eva Longoria. Yawn.

– eBay has opened its online auction-based e-Media Exchange for a peek before its beat release in December. Sales reps are running in fear of losing their jobs because buyers won’t just ignore them, they won’t need them any more.
