Influencing People With Spinner

Some more fun from the world of technology.

Have you ever wanted to subliminally influence your

Boss,

Friends,

Partner,

Parents,

or

Kids?

Now you can,

if they have a

Facebook

account!

"Influencing people on Facebook doesn’t have to be rocket science: The Spinner, a U.K. startup, claims it will target an individual Facebook user with ads designed to sway their behavior for only $29. With the ads, The Spinner aims to help individuals persuade colleagues, friends, and family members to change their ways, whether it’s convincing a partner to increase intimacy or swaying a parent’s opinion on buying a pet."

I checked out their website

and they must have raised their prices since this article was written because now the starting price is $49 dollars!

"Here’s how it works: For $29, you can target a Facebook user with a set of 10 different articles, which are shown to them 180 times within a 90-day period. Once you choose your campaign (The Spinner’s site has 12 different campaigns) and pay, The Spinner will send you a normal-looking link. Next, you can send the link to your targeted Facebook user in a text message. When they press the link, the cookie connected to the link bonds to their smartphone, so they’ll keep seeing similar articles during the three-month window."

Come on,

I dare you.

Try influencing me to stop writing stories that are

Liberal,

Political,

and

Self Righteous.

Getting me to stick with the

Poems,

Flash Fiction,

and

Short Stories

I make up!

I dare you!

This is,

My Kids Say I Am Too Opinionated

And,

“It is a subliminal thing. It is the tick of a clock that has ticked so long one no longer notices.”
- Ray Bradbury -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
