The race to provide targeted and relevant content gains momentum. A brilliant idea over at REVVER moves past Googles delayed and antiquated pay-per-click-per-view model, which they've just launched. It seems REVVER has figured out that they can sell grips on user generated content.

When will we have a web browser that takes shape based on the programing of the website it shows?

A skin that takes shape of the website, therefore eliminating the dual interface experience.

This would certainly provide a rich media experience and extend a company's visual and

experiential brand.

Get a cup of mud, a bottle of chilled water, a glass of wine or if your like me, there's a 5th in your drawer. Sip slowly. Don't drown, it's only Monday.

I'm young by most standards. That's a given. Anyone who might psycho-analyze my posts would inevitably come to the same conclusion.

I'm not sure any effective design/communciation piece could survive without well written copy. Ads, long copy or not, require just as much attention to aesthetics as object/photographic-based concepts.

The best mentors have been those who 'threw me to the wolves.' You are an observer by nature. Stop asking questions and watch quietly. You might learn more quickly. I wouldn't be to concerned with learning processes either.

( This is in response to the same questions on another blog )

I've forced myself to contradict myself and unlearn it all repeatedly. The market is more diverse than ever. We are sponges. Fill us up and wring us out again.

My answer;

No. Advertising is an end-result. It is the function that precedes

the form. Therefore it is an art-form. Art is free to interpretation

and analysis. It is whatever the surveyor interprets it as.

AD AGENCY LIFE

OPENING SCENE

Ambient office noise; Phones ringing, small talk overheard in the background.

I love you "If" by Rudyard Kipling:

(i've added my personal insights to each, hope you don't mind)

If you can trust yourself when all people doubt you,

but make allowance for their doubting too;

(a humble genius, the challenge is perpetual)

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

or being

Acceptance

Address a person's innate need for belonging, fitting in, acceptance of themselves and others.

Adventure

The focus here is on new experiences, the drama of life and anticipating the future. And most importantly, having a dream but being patient enough to fulfill it.

I've been asked an many occasions to provide some

links to the places I often lurk when my brain shuts

down and I begin to drool from mundane complacency.

I mean when I'm bored. So here ya go; Useless links

to fun, design, technology, the advertising

industry and general nothingness.

( it's up to you to paint )

So, I'm a creative person.

Not an art director or designer or writer, painter, sculptor,

muscian–a creative person. Although, I enjoy each respectively

for how they transcend each other and compliment themselves.

With each job my objectives have always remained the same.
