I mean, awareness is good in the general sense, but when you compare this "user led" campaign of facebook colors to the "brand led" campaign of Susan G Komen's National Breast Cancer Awareness month, I have to say, Komen comes out ahead every time. Anyway, don't mean to be critical. Just a dude who was a little perplexed and bummed about a lost opportunity. A much more effective campaign would have been something that actually pointed people towards an organization who needs help to find the cure...

I wasnt really interested in what colour bra people were wearing and I am sorry but it doesnt raise my awareness as its heavily publicised anyway. It just seems like another person trying to start a load of "chain statuses" or trying to get the biggest group started - I am starting one for colon cancer and see how popular that will be - bet no takers Why is it always breast cancer that gets the main publicity.
