These were created for a recent meeting where web 2.0 was a large, hairy beast of an agenda item. Although there’s lots of really nice charts and diagrams and stuff about what web 2.0 is (see logic and emotion link in blogroll), we always seemed to have to re-create screen dumps all the time. SoContinueContinue reading “images of web 2.0”

a local finnish brand
Insightful interview from McKinsey with the SVP marketing of Nokia. You’ll need to register to get the full article but some food for thought, here’s his response to how media is changing Nokia’s marketing efforts. “The Internet is playing a much more important role than anyone ever imagined. Brands are going to be made andContinueContinue reading “a local finnish brand”
very wrong
Marry Jodie Marsh? And have the whole thing captured on the small screen for MTV? The date is already booked for the lucky/insane fella. Wrong, wrong, wrong. On so many levels. Caitlin Moran’s introduction of Jodie marsh to readers of the Times is very amusing though. I just can’t imagine what sort of aContinueContinue reading “very wrong”
links for 21.05
I find this very disturbing Teen episode based online soap opera, Prom Queen. Apparently they’re more than willing – whatever that means. Anyway, friends = views on my space. American Airlines have launched a site especially for women travellers based on extensive research where they can “connect with each other and American.” Blah. IContinueContinue reading “links for 21.05”
socially (ir)responsbile advertising | part 3a
Well, I decided to nominate Oldthumper Carlberg to see what would happen. And like all good response advertising, I got a response within the timeframe they said! Woo hoo! It appears Tania has so many requests for blow jobs she just can’t cope. So she sent her assistant to help. Here’s the video they sentContinueContinue reading “socially (ir)responsbile advertising | part 3a”
socially (ir)responsible advertising | part 3
The NEE political party in Belgium has come up with a novel way of securing votes. It started out as a parody of other parties promising votes and escalated to the party leader, Tania Derveaux offering 40,000 blow jobs either in person or in second life. Shall I sign up on behalf of Oldthumper CarlbergContinueContinue reading “socially (ir)responsible advertising | part 3”

we don’t talk anymore
This is just beautiful and I promised to spread the good blog love on this one. I commented on this too on Philippe’s blog (below): At last, a great snippet that we can use in presentations to get the point across that the times, they are-a-changing. Could have done with these c. 6 months agoContinueContinue reading “we don’t talk anymore”
textual tension
I like the quotes in this Times article by the good folk at T-Mobile & o2 about how rude it is to text, talk and berry during meetings. Shame that their marketing teams didn’t take note of this. Apparently they’re well known for talking, texting and berry-action during meetings. It even happened during aContinueContinue reading “textual tension”
grass: grarse or grass?
What’s happened to the Queen’s English of late, old boy? First I see a television advert for the Bath Store with the proud voice-over saying Bath [baff] rather than Bath [bahth] and now Lloyds TSB are asking us to visit their branch [branch] rather than their branch [brahnch]. See the video below to see whatContinueContinue reading “grass: grarse or grass?”
