Jungain archetypes? Really?

A waste of good data?

The ratio of new/valuable info to words in this press release is pretty low.

I’m not sure what this press release is telling me, except that The Works have done some sort of Twitter study that they’re going to make available to their client.

So in that respect, I guess it’s done its job for the marketing team at The Works, but for anyone else…?
