Viral or not, they goofed by not leaving the video up. I went to check it out, and if it had still been up was going to pass it along to a few people through email.

Or maybe they didn't - now there are a lot more people discussing / researching the validity of it.

Hi Fraser, nice site.

The opinion on Digg is divided as to whether the JetBlue thing was viral or not. Many commenters think it was a web developer gag gone wrong.

I disagree with them: apparently the filename for the Flash was jb_fg_pbj.flv (jet blue _ family guy _ peanut butter jelly). I guess the filename wouldn't have had to go through a signoff process, but to me it still smells viral.

Haven't heard about any official response from JetBlue yet (I even emailed them today to ask if it was a campaign or a developer gag).

Thanks also from me for the link love!
