Found this in Monday's issue of USA Today:
In 1999, while working for Half.com, a start-up Web marketplace, Hughes got tiny
Halfway, Ore., to temporarily change its name to Half.com for a fee. He put
advertisements on the backs of fortune cookies and in New York City urinals.
"Don't piss away half your money; head to Half.com," read the urinal copy.

Very cool review of the book Buzzmarketing
