Ahh, it's that time of the year when all the cheesy computer companies think they can avoid the expense of traditional campus recruiting through the career center. Instead, they spam the grad students and undergrads directly. We've gotten this before from Oracle and SGI, among others, so you're in fine company.

So, dear members of the Princeton CS community, do attend DoubleClick's open house in New York (since they were too cheap to even show up in person in Princeton). Hopefully, they weren't so cheap as to forget the hors d'oeuvres. Of course, for ever micro-quiche you eat, you'll also be eating a discrete and digestible banner advertisement.

And a cookie.
