Do you think Pepsi's idea to release an Apple iPhone app for its Amp Energy drink that helps guys pick up girls was dumb?
PepsiCo Inc. released an Apple iPhone application for its Amp Energy drink to help guys pick up up any one of 24 types of women, from the "sorority girl," to "rebound girl" or "punk rock girl." The users get coached on facts that might be useful, such as computing a carbon footprint to impress "the treehugger". Those who "score" are encouraged to post details such as name, date and comments, for their pals via Facebook and Twitter.
