New car

I need a new car.

I really want to buy an electric one like the Prius or the C-zero, but I'm still struggling with the fact that electricity is still made in factories which run on fossil fuel. And to be honest I don't like the feeling of the Prius. It's a very "plastic" car with not much of a soul.

Who can give me the closing argument?

Or should I go for this one?

Not without U2

10 million views on the live stream and more than 1 million views in 1 day on their You Tube channel.
And superb quality!

If I would be selling digital TV, I would be very afraid...

Pay Pal

Give this guy a job in advertising! He just made the new viral campaign for Pay Pal.

And he taps into a global audience. Begging 2.0?

No wonder there are 2 I's in crisis...

"Hello I’m your bank manager.
I haven’t seen you since the
nineties when I shut the branch
and told you to talk to the ATM
instead.
Let me tell you what I’ve been
doing since then.
I’ve taken your money and
invested it in some house
scheme in America I didn’t really
understand.
The result is that my bank has
lost most of its capital.
So now I need more of your
money.
I promise you it’ll be really safe.
And I guarantee I’ll invest it really
smartly.
Banks have a credibility problem
and it isn’t going away any time
soon.
After this one, the world’s savers may never trust a bank
again.
Recessions act as a broom, brushing out the old and
making space for new ideas in the world.
Nothing returns to normal afterwards.
And the biggest mistake most companies make is not
in failing to cut costs fast enough.
It is to assume that after the recession, it’s going to be
business as usual."

It are truly interesting times here in advertising country...

Craigslist: "We pay zero attention to brand. We never use the word internally. We do zero advertising. We don't have a logo. We've never done a focus group. We don't care about any of that. And now we're told we have the strongest brand ever for a company our size. That's pretty ironic."

Sell the vatican

A simple idea to solve a big problem by Sarah Silverman.

And imagine have ALL the pussy...Amen!

Interview project

Interesting project by David Lynch! Why are these stories so addictive to hear? Presumably because they are genuine and authentic and told by real people.

Is this a new version of the old skool road movie, a new human interest format, a webisode,...or just an example of the convergence of media and formats? I don't know the answer but it sure works for me!

Rock Balancing

I know the perfect beach for some serious rock balancing...

I wish to register a complaint

Reminds me of the dead parrot sketch of Monty Python...of which this must be the strangest version I ever saw!

Pinch the crab

Long tail example...posted on the Big Tube on June 30 (by Gilthecrab??!!??), 2006 and still getting positive comments. And I didn't know crabs have a Mexican accent...

Sometimes reality is better than fiction and you almost have to believe there is a higher force...

Go to jail

Yeeeeaaaaah! Proud owner of "Het Zuid" in Antwerp! Den Hopper is mine :-)

10 years after the Nokia Game, this seems to be the real Global Online Game! Launched yesterday and the servers are red hot, lagging everywhere, blogs and forums overloaded with comments...But I (professionally...) wasted my completed morning on buying streets in my beloved Antwerp. Fascinating to see how quickly the streets were being bought by the gamers in a matter of hours.

Simple idea: combine Monopoly and Google maps and play it live across the planet. The world as a board game!

So...make me an offer I can't refuse for some damn fine virtual real estate in Antwerp...
