Web Rescues Un-Aired Super Bowl Ads
destinyland writes "A pirated version of Budweiser's un-aired Super Bowl ad appeared on YouTube — proving the Web is more democratic than NBC. The sexy PETA ad they refused to air also turned up on PETA's site; YouTube also had Saturday's skit from SNL, mocking the actual Pepsi ad that would air Sunday. But ironically, the Web site for Jack in the Box crashed right after they'd aired their cliffhanger about Jack's bus accident, prompting one critic to joke, 'Should we assume he's dead?'
Yeah, I used to work in a juvenile detention facility where I had to deal with the fallout from a lot of irresponsible crackheads who had decided 11-16 years earlier that their babies had too much potential to abort.

You should realize that almost every tech job out there are middle man jobs. Yes TV adds like to make it seem the Middle Men are just a wasted expense however they do add value in one way or an other. What some of those buy direct places do is the fact they are still the middlemen, however they improved their process to offer you services cheaper, however they are still the middle men, or you have to do that much extra work before before you can buy a product.
Lets think of the Middle Men like XML. Yes it is quicker for a direct communication between program A and program B, without XML just direct witting to each others data. However XML wile inefficient is a common communication platform which allows a safer transfer of problem without Owner of app B yelling at owner for app A for messing up their program.
If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
