Pepsi Making Changes


The same folks who gave us Cindy Crawford's iconic Super Bowl commercial is making changes. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Pepsi is getting out of the Super Bowl commercial game.

Remember Pepsi is the same company that gave us ads featuring Puff Daddy, Jackie Chan, Cindy Crawford, and Ozzy Osbourne.

Guys this just means the ad world is changing. But hey, at least Bud Light is still in the Super Bowl Biz.

Pepsi's Pick-up Problem

Here is blogger Patrick Baldwin

Need to pick up a chick? There's an app for that. At least for now.

Pepsi is facing growing criticism for an iPhone application that promises to help men "score" with two dozen stereotypes of women by giving users pickup lines and a scoreboard to keep track of their conquests.

It was all part of a promotion for its Amp Energy Drink.

The free app is still up.

By the way, some of the stereotypes include "foreign exchange student,nerd or cougar."

You then get possible pickup lines like, "Wasn't I in Space Academy with you?" for the nerd.
