I keep on receiving more and more unsolicited replies from people I don’t even know, and, this happens every day. Next to the popular and over-used tumblr spam this is another big thing: twitter spam. Apparently it also goes by the inflated name Interruption Marketing. Is this the modern “Xanax Spam 2.0”!? I think twitter should create some… Continue reading Interruption Marketing aka Twitter Spam

London Tube Map Built With Drinking Straws
How cool is that!? Brighton-based artist Kyle Bean built the London tube map solely with drinking straws, more specifically Zone One of London’s underground system. Recreating a company’s logo using drinking straws would also be pretty cool. What do you think? More pictures after the click.

Let It Snow, Google
Google’s got a creative and tricky search result once again. After “tilt” or “do a barrel roll” it’s now “let it snow”. People who aren’t celebrating christmas can type in “hannukah”. Google started with those tricks some time ago but since new web technologies emerged and still continue to do so they not only pimp… Continue reading Let It Snow, Google

Coffee Branding. Literally. One Audi Capuccino Please.
I spotted this on a facebook profile so I don’t know whether it’s taken at Audi’s headquarters or another place. What is sure though is this brew of capuccino has a tiny but cool detail for spreading the brand and making it stand out. (It has a little blemish but anyway…) This would also work… Continue reading Coffee Branding. Literally. One Audi Capuccino Please.
Manhattan Mini Storage: “Stop Tweeting Weird Sh!% and Clean your Apartment”
“Stop tweeting weird sh!% and clean your apartment” or “If you don’t like gay marriage don’t get gay married” are only two outstanding ads from Manhattan Mini Storage Spring campaign 2011. Fun, memorable and viral.
Crashed Ferrari Table
A crashed Ferrari becomes a table. French artist Charly Molinelli obtained a Ferrari 308 from a scrap press, created a wooden frame and put a piece of glas on top: the first “Crashed Ferrari Coffee Table”. Pretty flamboyant. Too bad my apartment is too small and besides, it costs over $15,000. Well, still cheaper than… Continue reading Crashed Ferrari Table
Men-Ups! Men photographed in female poses
