5 great stories that floated my boat over the last 7 days.

1. Best Absolut ads

Via LukeAbbott, 23 of the best Absolut vodka ads.

2. Create a Wrestler

Good ad on the customisation and create-a-wrestler feature in the new WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 computer game.

3. Braquo takeover MSN

French TV series using a cool takeover ad on MSN, very cool.

4. BenDunne.com launching soon…

So the airwaves are full of ads about the site launching, in what seems a completely wasted opportuntiyy in marketing. The initial website was a poor page placeholder, where an email collector could have been used. And recently we’ve seen test versions of the site *live* with differing prices. This isn’t hugely surprising as Ben’s recent web ventrure tenderme is a terrible business model and looks to have sunk already.

So this Monday 19th will see the website launch, expect bloggers and web professionals to give it a thorough run through.

5. A Brief History of Digital Media
