time equals money
New vid from Isobar about their new philosophy that time is the new currency in the magic dust world of marketing. Just not sure they’re saying anything that we don’t know already, especially the bit about what’s at the core of a consumer.

when did PEST become SLEPT?
The Times 100 site has some good case studies and theory stuff that ranges from GCSE to A level to MBA. Obviously been a while since I ducked into the classroom as the L was always silent in PEST (Political, Economic, Social, Technology), as it kind of got lumped with Political.

admit it, we all steal great decks
And Slide Share has made it easier for us to find new and exciting ways to liven up our dull old PowerPoint. Although I have recently invested 55 of your English pounds in the Keynote software (and Pages) for my Mac at home so I can hopefully create something more visually exciting.

privium | cool branding 2007
Privium has been named as a cool brand in the Cool Branding 2007 awards. Privium basically takes a copy of your iris’ so you can peer into a scanner at Schiphol airport in Amsterdam and walk straight through border control without queuing. Awesome. It is a little weird carrying your iris’ on a card though.ContinueContinue reading “privium | cool branding 2007”

top marketing blogs
Bone up on the full list. Digitasian’s (and by virtue, close living relatives of me) Verdino & Armano make the top 150. I don’t. Perhaps just as well.
