For some strange reason I have been thinking “radio” all of last week. That’s maybe because I spent three sick days last week listening to a lot of music. — from inframan – (?)

Manish talks about the LMI (Last Mile Idea) which brings a smile on the customer’s face. [Last Mile Story 1, Last Mile Story 2] At the end he mentions a mental note to keep collecting such experiences. So the other day while I was travelling to the suburb in a taxi I happened to see [...]

A real good soul in office downloaded (almost) all the winning entries at Cannes 2007. The Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival (IAF) is generally regarded as the most prestigious international advertising festival. Over the last few days I reviewed the films and some of them truly amazed me. My favourites: Power of wind – bringing [...]
