Burger King / Facebook / Curfuffle

The rather clever ‘delete 10 friends on Facebook and get a Whopper’ campaign by Burger King has unfortunately had to be scrapped. In the week or so of its existance 233,906 friends were removed by 82,771 people.

Facebook, unsurprisingly, isn’t too happy – it knows its value lies in those friend links. As a result, it’s banned the campaign, citing privacy reasons. Turns out that Facebook isn’t keen on apps notifying users when they’ve been ‘cut’ by another friend.

Not sure why it took a week for Facebook to work out this wasn’t a good idea for them. But regardless, further excellent coverage for Burger King.

Guitar Hero makes a LOT of money

The source is a little unclear… but rumoured takings on all things Guitar Hero have now topped $1000,000,000. Partly due to the $90 price tag, partly due to it being awesome.

And while we’re talking about good ads
