Show HN: Mini Meme Generator (using photos from recent Lenovo campaign)
- gregarious 14y agoTechCrunch ran a story about how funny these photos were and how they should be captioned. We thought it would be cool to actually do it. Original article: http://techcrunch.com/2012/06/07/the-only-logical-thing-to-do-with-these-lenovo-ideapad-ads-is-start-a-caption-contest/ http://techcrunch.com/2012/06/07/the-only-logical-thing-to-d...
- wtracy 14y agoAh, that context is helpful. Right now the page appears to be broken, and is giving me a blank image to caption.
- gregarious 14y agoYeah we're trying to figure out what's happening. I am getting a timeout on the jquery script of all things.
- drivebyacct2 14y agoI want my laptop and I want to be using it. I don't want some woman holding it near a horse. Number one because I can't use it, number two because she might drop it in horse shit. How is this effective marketing beyond "look at pretty people"? Or am I just wrong for thinking that that sort of marketing would not be effective on the intelligent types that I expect would be interested in Lenovo laptops?
- NeutronBoy 14y agoAll I can say is: Marketing campaign == successful!
- gregarious 14y agohaha yeah, pretty funny.
