Hype! Hype! Hype!

I was thinking. If the M$ Origami hype creator advertising team would have just said “It’ll change the way we live life” they could create almost as much hype as the makers of Segway did. lol.

Marketing is such an odd field. I’m glad I don’t get paid to make this crap up. I’m still wondering how well Microsoft’s XBox 360 marketing went. Starting off only making X amount of units in an attempt to create high demand and sick prices on Ebay. Now we get to wait in suspense all asking each other “oooh, you heard ’bout that Origami thing?.. Yeah, who cares though, how cool & usefull could it actually be?”
