e-blast
a ridiculous non-word made up by marketing people who think the term “e-mail” is inadequate to describe the explosive excitement of their m-ss e-mails.
also “eblast” or “e-mail blast”
if we send out an e-blast, the widget will literally fly off the shelves!
a standard industry term used in email marketing to describe the act of “blasting” a message out to a group of hundreds or thousands of people simultaneously, similar to the act of “blasting” a verbal message out with a loud speaker. typically used to differentiate between two-way email interactions (where a customer emails a question and the company responds), and one-way bulk email interactions (such as newsletters or promotions).
“tell marketing that we definitely need to add a coupon code to our upcoming july e-blast.”
the online version of being ‘put on blast’ by a friend who wants to embarr-ss you. it occurs when embarr-ssing personal affairs are made public through one of your social networking profiles, usually perpetrated by the wild and reckless stoner friend who will never be bothered with looking for a job.
my friend put me on e-blast before i could remove his post from my facebook page. now, my coworkers have seen that…ahem…photo, and my mom keeps asking me about my ‘fetish’.
