KIN'ell, Microsoft! Is that a breasticle I see before me?
Is a man's nipple erotic? If, dear reader, you answer yes to that question then perhaps Microsoft's latest efforts to advertise its wares should be slammed for promoting so-called sexting among young people. Earlier this week the software vendor unveiled its KIN "social phone", which is a mobile that nods happily in the …

Looks like
QA for their adverts is like the QA for there software
wouldnt touch M$ crap with a barge pole.
technically
It's the punctuation and grammar that needs checking rather than the spelling :P
If the guy has "breasts"
someone fell down slightly on targeting the youthful gym-going market, rather than the fat gynecomastic nerdslobs that are already amply catered for by the DROID
mmmmm...
...mmm man-boobs! -- phawww!
(...Did that sound gay?)

what?!
Are you a moron or something? Where have you been the last 5 years? Windows fans & users love bloat!

What a strange blog post.
I wonder what they would have made of that Aussie domain hosting ad with Pam Anderson and her foxy friend. Probably it would have made their heads explode :(
Very good
I see you've replace the 'S' with a '$', a witty change based on the propensity for big business to want to make money. Hilarious.
But why hide such inventive genius behind a cloak of anonymity?
...because
he's a $hithead... Anyone who still uses the tired old M$ moniker needs to get a life.
RE: ...because
"Anyone who still uses the tired old M$ moniker needs to get a life."
Anyone who still uses the tired old MS shitware needs to get a grip.
There, fixed it for you?

You just used it too.
The New Busy?
You mean the way Vista makes you wait hours for anything to finish? As compared to, say, the old XP busy that was only minutes?
Antacids?
Ouch, formic acid is nasty stuff, don't want to have that... Leave it to the ants, really.
Must be nice
Not having to actually work for a living, I mean to say.
The title is required, and must contain letters and/or digits.
GET A GRIP CONSUMER REPORTS.
JESUS CHRIST.
and don't forget...
Don't forget the 'Im a PC' adverts that showed 6 year old kids uploading pictures of themselves to the internet without any adult supervision.
I think they deserve an special prize for repeated marketing fail. The polish website race change still makes me crack up.
Details...
A young man exposing a naked breast? Quick, let's shut down all the beaches.
The most annoying thing...
...about ads like these is their forced folksyness and jangly hippie soundtracks.
Gets right on my tits. As it were.
You sure this wasn't an Apple ad?
You're the APPLE of my eye, the song very prominently announces.
More like the new illiterate
Saw one of the Hotmail ads at Wimbledon tonight:
"The new busy learns hang-gliding in their sleep"
... "learns" ??
Indeed
Yes, then they can have a follow up meeting to discuss the 'learnings'.
But how do you know it's not singular?
I though that "The New Busy" was like "The New Man" -- in other words an individual rather than a group -- which would make that sentence grammatically correct.
Not so...
because then it would need to say "in his or her sleep", not "their".
Plural
All the other ads are plural, see the link from the article: http://windowslive.com/campaign/thenewbusy/
I won't mention the use of "their" as that, arguably, has gained a gender neutral singular usage.
Gynecomastia
For the retards who dont know what Gynecomastia means!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gynecomastia
YES I did know what this was before! oh hang on....
Sexual Descrimination!
How dare they only show a male nipple!? They need to make this right by showing lots of ladies nipples too! If they don't want to put this on TV then email me then direct... that'll be fine...
The main problem seems to be...
... it doesn't actually tell you what kind of phone they're advertising!
