The month of October is a hazy blur for me. No, I'm not referencing a drug-induced stupor. Rather, a work-induced stupor.
After months of work and preparation, the Walmart Smart Network was launched. I am a Asst. Broadcast Producer on the account and boy, did we have a lot to do in the month leading up to the official start.
There is really no way to glam it up--I am talking about TV screens in Walmart. But the really remarkable thing is, with this new High Definition network, over 100 million+ weekly Walmart shoppers will be exposed to these screens starting in 2010. For right now, its starting in 300+ stores and 50 to 60 a month added for all of 2009.
So the next time you are in a Walmart with HD screens trying to sell you crap, think of me fondly--and the month of October I sacrificed so you know what latest products are on Rollback.

Craigslist
Tonight, I posted on Craigslist for the first time, ever. You might think it odd, but I have never purchased anything from this site or any other peer to peer site ala Ebay, etc. Does this say that I am naturally skeptical and I have a hard time trusting the honesty of anonymous strangers?
Yeah, that sounds pretty accurate.
Hopefully this helps me get over my stigma, cause I have friends who SWEAR by the sheer awesomeness of buying used stuff cheap and local off the Craigs.
Baby steps though...I am not actually buying or selling any products, I am actually posting for my side project Brent Reese Films. I know, it sounds narcissistic. I figured its just easier for people to remember. And they have to trust me cause I am using my name.
Right?
