1. Wimax­ing

Remem­ber those WiMax ads I was talk­ing about, well seems I’m not the only one a lit­tle intrigued. There’s Tom, Bernie, Dave, and well a whole bunch of peo­ple over on their face­book page pretty pissed at the slow­ness of pric­ing & details. It’s a lit­tle bit point­less Googling some­thing when there’s no end prod­uct. Looks like an expen­sive mis­take so far…

2. Pow­er­point

Nick McGiveney gives his view on Pow­er­point, found this great pre­sen­ta­tion on pow­er­point that I’d wish every­one who’s ever pitched me had seen.

3. New, not always improved

4. Talk­ing food

Pro­mot­ing Fam­ily Super­cooks tv show, I like these ads with unhealthy v healthy talk­ing foods.

5. Be Fu*king Awesome

Like Twit­ter, but for brag­ging about some­thing you’ve done that’s awe­some. BFA tries to inspire peo­ple to do some­thing awe­some like “I carved 30 pump­kins for char­ity in 90 min­utes.” and the com­mu­nity votes these updates up or down.

  • I find it hard to believe that Imagine have spent all this time pissing us off. It must have cost them a lot to annoy so many people and get as must bad press online. Quite an achievement.
