Except that it was just a press release telling me that there would be a new MetroOpensDoors.com on Monday December 8th. This is what we call a PRESS RELEASE FAIL.
Let’s hope the website isn’t in the same vein.
I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
I never go to MetroOpensDoors.com since I’ve gotten used to typing WMATA.com, so I only just noticed now: the Flash intro on MetroOpensDoors.com still uses the old door chimes.
but you still wrote about it, which makes it a PRESS RELEASE WIN, by my PR-guru standards. suckaaaaa.
No, but seriously – they got you, cause you wrote about it now, and i bet you you’re going to write about it (or else I will or Tiff will or someone will…) on Monday, too. WIN.
Sigh, I want Metro to hire me to do Metro PR. Hint, hint.
Yeah I thought the same thing when I got the email yesterday. I quickly went to the site and saw that nothing was changed. Good Marketing just hope they release on Dec 8th and not later then it would be bad marketing.
