Good point on the possibility of it being an agency who brought up the idea. It would be interesting to find out if someone else pulled the trigger on the idea. Obviously I'm not bashing Intel as a whole, they've got some smart people over there. The issue just lies with how they handled that situation with EcoGeek and the total flip they did with the most recent story. Will be interesting to see how the trademark issue plays out. I appreciate your comments! Beth! Good point on the possibility of it being an agency who brought up the idea. It would be interesting to find out if someone else pulled the trigger on the idea.

Okay, not really... What does amaze me is that Intel and/or their agency (my bet is on the agency pulling this stunt) thought they could get away with this. Most likely it was the agency who thought "eh, no one will know where I got this...it's just from some dinky blog/website/etc." I would think with all their marketing savvy (i.e. their social media releases) Intel's marketing/PR/brand team would know better. If it was an agency, wouldn't you love to know who they are?! I could go on, but will spare you & your readers... We live in a very small world these days. Just because you are Intel not longer means you rule the world. [They can always give Dell a call to confirm that. ;-)] I hadn't heard about this before, great post Sonny, This amazes me!
