ENZO: This is Enzo F. Cesario with another edition of the Brandsplat video report. I'm a little sick. They make me come in when I'm sick.
BEN: You gotta work. You have to work.
ENZO: I'm going to start a union. This just in. This is a cool little piece by the Harris Poll, where they did a poll, and the information they got was that 6 in 10 people ignore ads on the internet.
BEN: I'm sorry, what were you saying?
ENZO: (laughs) That's funny. God, you're quick today. I must be slow. Look at these numbers. Check out this chart about ads people ignore. Anything on the net ranks like in the ninetieth percentile. That's great. Good news for radio and TV. Yeah. People actually listen and watch radio and TV, and it still seems to be working. So go figure. The internets is not the solution to everything. Right, Ben?
BEN: I could have told you that.
ENZO: Here's some good news for Apple. This is a report by a guy who claims – CLAIMS that his Android – his Droid 2 smart phone blew up in his ear. Check out this little clip. (He shows a news clip.) Okay, so...
BEN: Ouch!
ENZO: Yeah. What they failed to tell you was that he had a lit cigarette behind his ear while he was talking on the phone. That's the one little piece of information that they left out. But anyway...
BEN: They have an app for that.
ENZO: They do have an app for that. That was all over the internet, which was pretty funny because it's kind of a small story. But good news for all you iPhone users – no blowing up in the ear. Maybe they should do a campaign about that. Another thing in the news that has been splattered everywhere is the whole WikiLeaks drama unfolding. What you don't know is, when they shut a site down, there are tons of mirrored sites that you can find them at. And if you go here – let's see, this is, WikiLeaks mirrors. A mirror site is basically a backup of your site. It's the same content. And the way this works is you copy and paste the DNS numbers into your browser and you can find it. So go to mirror.wikileaks.info.com. Speaking of WikiLeaks, I've got to go take a wikileak. Right now.
BEN: Oh no. Buddump bump.
ENZO: Can we hear a... Enrique? (We hear a rimshot.) Thank you. Thanks, Enrique. All right. That's it for this week. Enzo F. Cesario. See you next time.
