This is absolutely brilliant, a spoof agency of the year submission for Strategy magazine from Toronto agency John St.
Called ‘Pink Ponies: a case history’ it almost has you believing it all.
“In a crowded birthday market we didn’t didn’t just create a birthday party we created a birthday movement.”

Art Project powered by Google: A true wonder

After a tough few days, there’s nothing I enjoy more than flicking through the online pages of Google Labs to see what new gadgets, widgets, services and gizmos the clever folk at Google are currently playing around with. It’s almost as cathartic as reading WIRED magazine…
Today in Google Labs, I discovered Art Project powered by Google – a new venture which enables you to explore museums from around the world, discover and view hundreds of artworks at incredible zoom levels, and even create and share your own collection of masterpieces.
 

Google’s …

Stop your PR campaigns and start living in the NOW

I’ve been a long time follower of David Meerman Scott, author of the brilliant The New Rules of Marketing and PR which I still remember reading for the first time a few years ago and the impact it has made on my outlook to the industry in which I work. Six months on the BusinessWeek bestseller list and published in 26 languages from Bulgarian to Vietnamese, New Rules, now in its second edition, is a modern business classic.
There have been a few new books written by the author since but for a real …

Have you heard about Airbnb? A million folks have.

I have to admit that I had never heard of Airbnb until the infographic below was posted on PSFK yesterday. I felt compelled to click on the image and discovered the amazing growth that this community marketplace for unique spaces has experienced since its launch in August 2008.

Airbnb connects people who have space to spare with those who are looking for a place to stay. Guests can build real connections with their hosts, gain access to distinctive spaces, and immerse themselves in the culture of their destinations.

Facebook vs. Twitter

Here’s a great infographic which reveals some interesting stats on Twitter and Facebook users. Whilst at times, comparing the two platforms is a bit like comparing hamburgers and burritos, there are still some nuggets here that raise an eyebrow:

Only 12% of ‘bookers update their status daily compared with 52% of Twitterers.
40% of people on Facebook follow a brand, compared to 25% of folk on Twitter.
Awareness of both platforms is more or less equal – 88% Facebook, 87% Twitter
Only a third of users access Facebook or Twitter on their mobile. I …

Tailcast – What Will You Create Today?

I’ve just discovered tailcast.com – a new website that encourages amateur and professional creatives to join the personalised print-on-demand product market through submission and commission based sales. A neat concept that gets more interesting the more you look into it.
Just today, a colleague of mine was talking about her husband’s sideline in T-shirt design and it struck me that by earning 20% commission on all sales that feature a design that you have come up with could turn into a nice little earner.
The website also allows customers to break free …
