Duolingo, the language learning app, have announced the death of their macot, Duo the owl. They are currently trolling Drake, accusing him of killing Duo.

It's an odd marketing stunt, and I'll be interested to see how it pans out.

What do you think? Do you use Duolingo?

Why do I have a feeling this is similar to the publicity stunt Planters Peanuts pulled years ago. You know, when they killed off Mr. Peanut and replaced him with a baby peanut. But eventually that baby peanut turns into Mr. Peanut again.

It's definitely a publicity stunt. No doubt about it.
