Previously on YBNBY: Below-Average Expectations

Don't you just wish you had been there to see this?

100,000 bouncy balls released down a hill in San Francisco.

According to BoingBoing, the Supreme Court in Canada has effectively outlawed the copying of music from your own CDs onto your own iPod, which means our Canuck friends must only load songs they've bought at the iTunes store onto their MP3 players.

A quick calculation shows what this actually means, because if you actually divide the number of iTunes songs bought by the number of iPods sold, you get the actual number of songs, on average, everyone should have on their playlist.

Note to Steve Jobs - make your next iPod a 100mb version, because that's all we need.

From Agenda Inc:

Sexual double entendres were removed overnight from Burger King's new website, CoqRoq.com, but the company claims it has received no complaints from consumers or other outside groups, AdAge reports. The deleted content included captions, under photos of young girls, that read: “Groupies love the Coq” and “groupies love Coq.”

BK are claiming “malfunctions in the Flash and XML programming were responsible for putting the captions up.” Now, I'm not trying to be a technical genius here, but thats sounds to me like a very unusual “ Flash programming error” unless you happening to be running your web server on a computer named HAL.

Note to marketers: when you create a site based around a fake band with the word “Cock” in it, for a product that's designed to go in your mouth, don't act surprised when someone assumes it's less than innocent.

Over the last few months, Brian Fugere has survived cancer and four rounds of chemotherapy. What's next? Completing a marathon in the hospital's hallways, obviously.

Brian is one of the authors of Why Business People Speak Like Idiots, but had to cut the signing tour short to knock "Beat Cancer" off his to-do list. After that, to raise money, he decided to walk 26.2 miles -- 144 laps -- around the hospital, IV in arm. Calling it the "Box of Chocolates Marathon" (in life, you never know what you're gonna get), he's raised about $5,000 thus far. After today's San Francisco Chronicle profile, I'm sure that number will rise.
