Shrink-wrap FAIL. My May issue of BMWCCA Roundel came with a "few" extras.
- 3 copies of People Style Watch
- 3 copies of This Old House
- 1 copy of MSDN Magazine
The Microsoft magazine was the dead giveaway it wasn't supposed to cone to me ;)
All of the magazines are addressed to other people who live in my city.

3D without the glasses. Hat tip to @progressiveone
This is hilarious, and has got to be a hoax of some sort. It's brilliantly done though. Over 2.8 million views in 4 days, and will probably get to 3 million before the day is done. I wonder when the site JonathanPost.com will be updated?
I really want to know who is responsible for this since they are helping to make the case for why passive 3D glasses (like the ones we sell at Oakley and the ones being used in most movie theaters) are better than the active ones that are mostly being used in the home consumer electronics market today.
Hat tip to @progressiveone.
This is how I found the boy playing video games in his room today.
Dreamt that @oakley HQ was @darthvader’s minions’ new home. It was remodeled though so I couldn’t find the web team.
Cue Vader music. It was a weird dream for sure. They had removed the icon from the facade and replaced it with a long floating plank area where storm troopers were conducting some odd experiment with snow and rainbows in large life-sized glass snow globe-like enclosures.
As I walked around looking for my office, I kept running into unfamiliar obstacles. It felt like a Las Vegas hotel since there were dining establishments and rides everywhere. I eventually found some elevators but it took me to the wrong floor. When I turned to get back on the elevator I noticed a square O on one of the floor buttons so I pushed that one. Somehow I ended up stuck on an outside ledge, similar to the huge fan in our lobby (only smaller) and couldn't get back in. I held on for dear life until my brother helped me back in. O_o
I am totally the target audience for this BMW iPhone/iPad commercial.
Ever since iPods came out I've been obsessed with integrating them into my car. The people in this commercial are my people.
Gap reverts to old logo. Design world rejoices. Laird+Partners loses credibility.
AdAge reported a couple days ago that the Gap logo was actually for real, and not some stupid PR stunt or elaborate crowdsourcing experiment. Today, they broke the news that Gap will scrap their new logo and return to the old design. I am so glad Gap decided to revert back. It was the only thing they could have done to “fix” the mess that was created by the release of their new logo. They could have very easily dug themselves deeper with any other move.
It’s a good day in the world of design. Well, for everyone except Laird+Partners, the agency who was responsible for that debacle. They should stick to advertising and not try to design logos...or websites for that matter. Here’s how theirs looks on an iPhone:
Way to go guys. Here’s a tip. When building flash-only websites, try to at least make it look like you attempted to view it on a mobile device. Good luck getting out from under this PR mess...
