"Hans Brinker" (again)



Client: Hans Brinker Budget Hotel
Agency: KesselsKramer, Amsterdam

I really love their honesty and sense of irony. Never slept there and probably you'll never find me in Hans Brinker sharing the loo with other room mates.

Nevertheless I have to confess, the couple of times I went to Amsterdam I've checked the place out. It must be the hidden power of advertising.

"Is the net destroying our culture?"

"Food for thought"

"The power of mass creativity is about what the rise of the likes of Wikipedia and Youtube, Linux and Craigslist means for the way we organise ourselves, not just in digital businesses but in schools and hospitals, cities and mainstream corporations. My argument is that these new forms of mass, creative collaboration announce the arrival of a society in which participation will be the key organising idea rather than consumption and work. People want to be players not just spectators, part of the action, not on the sidelines." -- Charles Leadbeater, "We-think"

"We Are What You Think"



"Big Think" -- a "YouTube for ideas".

We've already had a wedding inside IKEA, now we have Mark living in. One day perhaps we'll have a funeral or a birth. Who knows?

"Most Contagious 2007"

"Food for thought"

"The consumer's problem has been that the main customer for phone handsets has been not the user, but the mobile networks that market them. Their interest lies in peddling devices that access new services and make new business."
- Matthew Parris, "I love boring old mobiles", The Times.
