Well, OK, maybe TripAdvisor didn’t take my idea exactly (time will tell), but one thing’s for certain: they did like the domain names I suggested in my One Degree post from earlier this week.

Burger King has had some interesting ad campaigns over the last few years, most notably their “Subservient Chicken” and “The King” campaigns. They’ve recently extended these campaigns by selling video games featuring their characters.

I’m thrilled to see another Canadian organization launching a blog. This time it’s the White Ribbon campaign — the world’s largest effort by men to end men’s violence against women. It was started by a handful of men in Canada in 1991 on the second anniversary of the Montreal Massacre.
Their blog is called Our Future has No Violence Against Women. The plans for the blog include:
- Provide updates on activities from White Ribbon Campaigns around the world
- Host commentary and opinion pieces from advocates working to end violence against women from across the planet
- Serve as a centralized online forum for individuals to come and discuss issues
They’ve gotten off to a good start with some commentary on the recent Dawson school shooting in Montreal as well as the UN’s declaration of International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Thanks to Chris Carder for the head’s up on the White Ribbon blog.
