I think this is one of the coolest websites I’ve seen. It’s a History of Branding site with thundreds of the most recognizable logos. You click on any of the pictures and it will take you to a page with a short summary of the companies history. Go check it out, even just to look [...]
I thought this site was really cool, and fairly related to my Future of Advertising presentation. It’s a Media Futures Archive. It’s articles on the possible development of media in the future. Some of the stuff is pretty interesting.

( I realized most of them weren’t viewing correctly! This should work.) I grabbed these off a couple sites and an email. I thought these were pretty cool, and would really make me pay attention…although maybe not necessarily buy the product. Check it out:
In response to the conversation about the Snickers Super Bowl ad (you can see my comment here) I wanted to post a few articles and sites about Gay and Lesbian targeted advertising.
