Technology and the Speed of Mouth

So, I’m working on my laptop with the TV on in the background. Suddenly, I’m pulled from my work by a song on a new Dockers commercial. Before the commercial is even finished, I head over to iTunes and search for what I think the song might be named: “California Soul.” BINGO! I click Buy Song. Within 30 seconds of hearing a sample of the song, I own the song. I then post a tweet in twitter about my new found musical joy. Later that evening, I talk to a friend of mine that had seen my tweet and checked out the song as well.

Hmmmmm…makes me think that marketers could use all this technology in some way…
