A part of it is to help curtail negative rumors and on the positive side learn more about who actually buys their stuff or relates to their brand. I remember when all us nerds were talking to executives about this rising trend and their response was “make a myspace page”. I don’t want to bore you with this beat-to-death topic but I recently stumbled upon an interesting chain of events that involves people talking shit on a message board and the guy behind (and in front) of the curtain fires back by responding on the message board and then doing a online interview. I guess some would call this the new age of the refined PR spin. Here’s the interview and here’s the post that appeared on Slap Message Boards. This whole scenario (and I know more like this) I guess would be summed up as a piece of “Conversation Architecture“

I’m not one for celebrity gossip but since our post about Flava and the links from some of our comment-enators I figured we need to link this site. Some harsh shit in there besides the normal “this star drinking a starbucks coffee on sunset” type crap. It’s worth a lurking even if you can give a fuck about the stars: Perez Hilton. Some of the comments are awesome.
