You don’t have to love American Football or understand it to feel the potency of this spot. Although, if you do, it’s probably even better. Watch this… PS: Thanks to Chungaiz for sending it in the first place.

Isn’t imitation the sincerest form of flattery? (To quote Charles Caleb Colton) Does this count too?

Lovely little web site that works out a good walking route, then tells you the calorie burn-off, walking times and CO2 avoided. Only works for a few cities right now, but it’s great if you live in London… Click here.

Now, here’s something I actually played with… It’s from our digital guys, although I didn’t know that until I’d been through the thing. Honest. I won’t say too much, but go play with this… it starts as TV and the link is to the one I received. Freakin’ genius – I had to send a [...]

This is one of the best stories I’ve read on Creativity Online… A Partizan animator, called Nicolas, was playing with a couple of new software programs on his Mac. And tried out something on UFO’s. Then posted it for fun. Prompting a new wave of UFO chatter. See the video here – looks cool. Love [...]
No Such Thing As Bad PR…

As critiqued by Bob Garfield on Advertising Age… And correctly slated, in my opinion, because it’s so ostentatious. Yes – there’s a super-premium market and they do live this life. But, it’s displayed with such a lack of wit or self-awareness that it becomes laughable. Go here to see it in full…
