Your Call 032508 Unmarketable

Moore writes that even advertisers know the Internet generation is impervious to traditional ad campaigns. So now they're out to infiltrate your friendships, invade your passions and own your love. And it's working. If all the world's an advertisement and we are merely players, how do you find space to track your own loves and interests? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.
