Bits and tits from the adworld and beyond

Women in workboots declared victory yesterday when a footwear company succumbed to public pressure and announced it would take down about 600 sexually suggestive billboards across Canada. "I'm glad that they've listened to consumers," said Sandra Dominato, chairperson of Canadian Auto Workers Local 444's women's committee. "This is a big victory for women in our workplaces."
Terra Footwear announced it would pull an adult video off its website and begin taking down the billboards, which feature women in lingerie and workboots in sexually suggestive poses with air hoses, hammers and tape measures as props."
See one of the billboards here. The company's ad gallery has gone missing, since they've pulled what they had there.

Playing with Loyalty Card Programs -You probably have a card of some sort for a supermarket, pharmacy or some such thing, where you get points towards something, clipless coupons, etc.
In an effort ot cause chaos in the information tracking that these coupon supply the company, a site was created to swap card numbers in an effort to create inaccurate data. The site also has some interesting articles on supermarket cards and the sort.
