Why RIM Needs A New Advertising Agency
Remember RIM’s last ad campaign and our parody. I was just reading an short article on Adrants.com about RIM’s new advertising campaign. The latest is called Comedy Hits The Hotspot. I am guessing that this is in regard to UMA WiFi calling but seriously RIM could have at least chosen FUNNY comedians to sponsor! I watched these small skits they have on their websites and they are not even a little funny. They are just plain terrible! RIM should pay us to watch them. 
Seriously RIM. Just look at the user ratings of the videos. Not one of them gets more than 2 out of 5 stars with most of them clocking in with 1 out of 5 stars. Did RIM even bother listening to their comedy improv routines before posting them? My little brothers could tell and execute better jokes.
You can read Adrants assessment of the ad or just check out the videos yourself if you are a sucker for punishment.

An article about an article that highlights an article about some ad. It should not be hell to find the video mentioned in the article. *stops complaining*
