Palladium Shoes
[from mediapost]
Talk about an innovative way to sell shoes. Palladium shoes is tapping in to the Geocaching phenomenon (a game where players use GPS receivers and Web clues to find hidden "caches" around the world) to hawk its men's and women's travel shoes. For starters, each page of the Palladium Web site refers to the Geocaching game. The pages display each of nine shoe styles in a "home city," and provide travel information and cache clues for that city. Even better, Palladium is placing clues on non-Palladium sites. Clues will be hidden in different retailer-determined locations and announced on public geocaching sites. Posters will go up in the cities where the hidden caches are placed.Targeting "Urban Nomads" ages 22 to 38, and launching this month, the campaign tag line fits like a glove: "The Destination is the Journey." The Republik created the campaign.

Honda, The Impossible Dream
Honda, The Impossible Dream is a :30 second spot done by Wieden + Kennedy for Honda. The accompanying on-line experience is a great statement that brand advertising extends way past just a :30 second spot. Not sure which agency did the on-line work.

Entertainment Anytime
Here's the Sprint Entertainment Anytime viral campaign done by Organic. It's a nice simple idea that's well executed, although it smells like a subservient chicken rip-off. Seems like the Crispin Porter work is still inspiring many throughout the industry.
