Thanks to everyone who sent in 5 word speeches yesterday...they were all pretty good. I will be posting my favorites here at some point, when I get the time. Predictably, many submissions included the phrase "purple monkey dishwasher".
Another idea I had for the 5 word speech is to sell it as ad space. I mean, talk about a desirable target audience; you'd think that Amazon would pay me a few thousand dollars to stand up in front of 2000 backslash-dot-com-all-day-long people at the Webbys and say: "Shop at Amazon dot com". Then again, that would make me feel dirty.
