Free Coffee in SF & Join An Alternative To The Starbucks Quote Campaign
Thursday, April 3rd, 2008coComment.com is taking a different approach to the Starbucks “The Way I See It” campaign by offering free coffee and thought-provoking unfinished sentences on coffee sleeves to start real conversations. If you are in San Francisco on April 4th, stop by and have a cup of coffee on us in Union Square or just jump in the conversation and win more free coffee.
Why are we doing this?
Starbucks launched their “The Way I See It” campaign as way of creating conversation. Putting supposedly interesting quotes on coffee cups only created controversy that Starbucks was ultra-liberal and looking to promote a political agenda. coComment, a service which allows you to enjoy the full potential of comment-based conversation on the web, is taking a stand to promote real conversations the old-fashioned way – by buying people a cup of coffee and asking them to complete thought-provoking sentences on their Web site (http://www.cocomment.com). Coffee drinkers can finish sentences such as “if I learned definitively that God does exist, I would _____” and “if I could name my own presidential candidate, it would be______” along with four others that people can finish online and review other people’s ideas. coComment team will be available at the event for interviews and talk about better conversations on the Web, or just email me at kristina@cocomment.com
Thanks
