The Big Story
How brands jumped on #TheDress bandwagon
Twitter users spent a lot of time last week trying to figure out the color of a dress, and many brands jumped on the bandwagon. Some brands posted images of products -- jet planes and Lego figurines -- kitted out in blue-and-black or white-and-gold colors; others, such as Snickers and Papa John's, got mileage out of rejecting the meme. "Hey internet, you obsess over a dress when you're hungry," Snickers tweeted. Adweek/AdFreak blog (2/27), ClickZ (2/27)

The problem with Dove's #SpeakBeautiful campaign
Dove's #SpeakBeautiful campaign saw the brand tweet messages at women who denigrated themselves on Twitter, urging them to post something positive about their appearance. That rubbed some the wrong way. "The only purpose of this cooing, of course, is to lull consumers into a sense of intimacy so human, so convincing, that you forget that Dove is actually trying to sell you something," Caitlin Dewey writes.

What would Odysseus have made of #TheDress?
The ocean was "wine-dark" and sheep were "violet" in Homer's "Odyssey" -- a reminder, researchers say, that the words used to describe colors have changed over the centuries. The color blue is almost entirely absent from ancient texts, and some tribes still lack specific words for the hue, reportedly struggling to distinguish it from green. Business Insider (2/27)
