One day I will again write full posts and not simply highlight the great work of others. But it’s busy now, I love this stuff, and I love sharing it with you. This video was made by Communications students at UQAM. Again, my unhip, behind the times self is way…
I am busy this week. So less posting and more focus on highlighting the dope work of others. Yes, I am a bit late on this particular item. But it’s a great initiative from one of the darlings of social media, Starbucks. Who knew they were so good at guerilla marketing? There’s…
Check out this stunt by a UK-based outdoor clothing company called Finisterre. What I like: It could not have cost that much, is fun and clearly noteworthy. The tag line at the end of the video is perfect. Of course, the proof is in the view-based pudding. Over 275 000…

Since Lindsay is opening Fait ici (it’s an urban take on the general store) I’ve been thinking a lot about food. I’ve also been doing more of the cooking than usual, as she is going through the craziness and whirlwind that is startup entrepreneurship. It’s occurred to me that cooking…
The Library of Congress is going to archive every single tweet. I know…it’s a great public service that will serve future generations incredibly well. Like me, I am sure you’re wondering what your great grandkids will think if, eighty years from now, they dive into this treasure trove of genius…
This is me examining my 9 to 5 work. It’s not a shill-fest. Nor does it represent the views of my firm or my clients. This is just me talking, got it? My hope is that this little dissection will help you with your guerrilla marketing initiatives. My group did…
