I've been a staunch critic of how the U.S. telecom carriers have handled their SMS-based programs. From charging exorbitant, recurring short-code-registration fees to the lack of internal infrastructure to support quick and timely campaign approvals, the SMS industry has yet to deliver on its promises as a stand-alone marketing channel.

Yes, more naked PETA people. This time it’s the members of Danity Kane, the girl group that won MTV’s Making the Band 3. The ad is getting more play than it might have otherwise because Aubrey O’Day (center), the group’s most high-profile member, got booted out of the band this week.

I’m in a particularly good mood this a.m., because as I strolled from the S train to connect with the 6 at Grand Central, I was serenaded by the vocal sensations of the lady in the tunnel. You know who I’m talking about. She’s there a few times a week, just sitting on the tile bench, comfortably painting the tunnel with her lavender voice.
