Technology could have saved me a $1,000

The classy city of San Diego is home of many colleges and three major universities: San Diego State University, University of California San Diego, and University of San Diego. On these campuses and many others throughout California and the United States, students live dirt cheap and survive on ramen noodles, tap water and other bare essentials.

AdEase Presents Digital Strategies at DHCX

It wasn’t a particularly sunny day in the Sunshine State, but this AdEaser was glowing nonetheless. I traveled down Interstate 4 (colloquially referred to as “the I-4 parking lot”) and onto SR-528 (“The Beachline,” one of the innumerable tollways that crisscross Central Florida). Merging onto International Drive (which is famously dotted with cheap T-shirt and beach towel stores), I saw the magnificent glass and concrete tower of the Peabody poke up from behind the Orlando-Orange County

It’s a Big, Big World

The world is massive. It is. The internet, the amount of knowledge, the speed of communication, the international economy… Well, it’s daunting.

For the Love of Dog

This comes as no surprise to anyone who knows me but I’m a lover of all things dog. It was therefore with huge disappointment that I read in the trade press that Pedigree was dropped as a sponsor of the Westminster dog show after a 20 year association. The reasons surrounding the split stemmed from the creative advertising Pedigree was using to highlight the plight of homeless dogs in need of adoption. Westminster stated “Our show

Earning Your Spot in My Inbox

Like many, part of my morning routine is trashing 10-15 emails clogging my inbox with offers pushing and promoting items I have no interest in. Most of these emails, which brands have spent time and effort creating, never get beyond the subject line.

Augmented Reality: Science Fiction or Revolutionary Technology

The year is 2012, Whitney Houston has tragically passed away, another end of the world prediction will be proven false, and the future of advertising and marketing is quickly arising in a unique form. Many movies attempt to foresee the future in a 90 minute extravaganza. However, it is only real through the lenses of good editing and Hollywood tricks.
