When was the last time you went on a job interview? Did you had some tough interview questions?
Web Watch is a fan of some of the infamous Microsoft interview questions, such as “how many payphones are there in Manhattan?” (answer then: assume 4 payphones per street corner, then calculate how many street corners there are in Manhattan. answer now: probably none)
Lewis Lin, an interview coach in Seattle, has compiled 140 GOOGLE JOB INTERVIEW QUESTIONS that have been asked over the years.

Twitter is still the best place to go if you are looking for instant feedback on any topic, product, or service.
And if you’re a business that is playing in the social media field, you would be well-served by monitoring who is at the top of the heap when it comes to Twitter mentions of brand names.

Web Watch has a TiVo for one thing – to make watching television easier and more fun (unlike other folks who solely use TiVo or other DVRs to skip commercials). We do admit that we skip commercials, but we’ll often go back to watch some of the ones that look more interesting… like movie trailers, or something new that hasn’t been seen before.
But it did get Web Watch wondering… HOW MUCH ARE THE NETWORKS CHARGING PER 30-SECOND AD IN PRIMETIME?
And now we know. Let’s take a look at how much some of Web Watch’s current favorite shows are doing per 30-second spot:

National Feel Your Boobies Week continues…
If you haven’t noticed, October brings with it not just the black-and-orange fun of Halloween, but also the ubiquitious pink ribbon-emblazoned products that companies issue to show their support for breast cancer research.
Web Watch 100% supports donating to research and the good that comes from that – whether it be for breast cancer or any other charitable cause of your choice.
However, where the pink ribbon on products was once seen as solely as a philanthopic device has turned into something much more: Just Another Marketing Ploy.
Why buy these regular spatulas when you can buy a pink spatula?
Why buy just any room circulation fan when you can buy a room circulator fan that has a pink ribbon on it?
Just browse Amazon or your favorite local store this month, and you’ll see any number of pink and ribbonized items that serve no real purpose when compared to their normal-colored counterparts sold throughout the rest of the year.

Remember the Men’s Underwear Economic Index that Web Watch mentioned the other day?
Have you heard about the HOT WAITRESS ECONOMIC INDEX?
As the creators of the index note, it is similar to the Overeducated Cabbie Index or Speed at Which Contractors Return Calls Index, both of which should give the casual observer some indication of how desperate for work some people are during certain economic times.

Because nothing says “stimulation” than seeing that the men’s underwear market is a US$5 billion a year industry, give or take a little.
And these business analysts say that the economic ups-and-downs we’ve been experiencing lately are all tied to how often men purchase their tighty-whiteys, boxers, boxer briefs, thongs(!), and banana hammocks. (Web Watch includes those latter items for our European and more adventurous readers.)

Jason Sadler is the next in a long line of Internet-savvy marketers who are working the ‘net to make a buck. Remember the MILLION DOLLAR HOME PAGE, where businesses paid $1 per pixel to have their logo displayed on a giant home page? Yeah, they made their money (and a lot of press).
Jason is doing the same type of thing, but instead of selling pixels, he’s selling his body.
