Last week, I tried to garner a social response from The Home Depot. For the first time in this column, it worked. The company immediately responded on Twitter (but not Facebook).
Here’s what it all looked like:
@loganlenz How about this @Marvel Spiderman night light? If anyone can defeat Bruce it’s Spidey, right? http://t.co/awn4VvTlOZ

Although they answered my initial question in the same silly tone which the question was asked, they failed to continue the discussion after I followed up with the following:
@homedepot Do you have any Thor nightlights?

The Home Depot ultimately passed the initial test, but I would have liked to see them really let loose and have fun with the conversation for a little longer.
