Truth in advertising

Ads usually suffer from lack of credibility. They always show shiny happy people especially in all health & beauty categories. That’s why I was rather surprised from the image of the lady in that banner for some diet.

3D Flash Awesomeness

Fantastic use of 3D flash in this luvly Eco Zoo project from McCann Erickson Japan. Lovely design, ffunky mouse control and irresistible folding books.

Anyone with a scooter (or bigger, or a car actually) knows the somehow inevitable experience of getting your vehicle to the garage with a minor problem and getting the phone call (and later the bill) that ACTUALLY, it’s not that minor and you need to replace the engine or something…. And more often than not [...]

Best Flickr group ever

I guess it’s some primal evolutionary as well as cultural disposition - it happens to me all the time that I attribute some living or emotional characteristic to inanimate objects. And it’s quite amazing how much stuff you can project on a bloody screw head!
