An Open Letter to All of Advertising and Marketing.

Nice reality check for brands/advertisings that actually think consumers have the bandwidth to participate in co-creation and crowdsourcing.

A bit dorky, but hey it’s digital advertising. Coca-Cola enables people to perform a ‘Like’ action in the real world.

A new development steered by Publicis E-dologic enables people to perform a “Like”
action in the real world, and in turn is shown on the Facebook account of that user.

Excellent data viz of CO2 emissions, birth & death rates by country, simulated real-time.

[from the site.]

“The Breathing Earth simulation is a real-time simulation that displays the CO2 emissions of every country in the world, as well as their birth and death rates.  Keep in mind that this real time simulation is just a simulation. Although the CO2 emission, birth rate and death rate data used in Breathing Earth comes from reputable sources, data that measures things on such a massive scale can never be 100% accurate. Please note however that the CO2 emission levels shown here are much more likely to be too low than they are to be too high.”
