Brand provenance


"When CNW surveyed shoppers coming out of Wal-Mart stores, 75% said they preferred to buy American, yet an inspection of their purchases found that 90% were made in China."
- CHICAGO TRIBUNE 1.24.06

"Food for thought"


"The 'surplus society' has a surplus of similar companies, employing similar people, with similar educational backgrounds, coming up with similar ideas, producing similar things, with similar prices and similar quality. To succeed we must stop being so damn normal. In a winner-takes-all world, normal = nothing."
- Kjell Nordström and Jonas Ridderstråle, "Funky Business"

Sopranos and Google maps




According to Advertising Age, HBO is creating a map of New Jersey to remind viewers about some of the Sopranos' story lines, scenes and places. Using a Google platform as branding medium, HBO expects it to work as "a geo-visual tour of the TV series, a very interactive way to get people caught up".
