My phone … i use i every day … i like my phone … it’s my friend …
But now the little nipple in the middle gave up..it refuses to let me navigate … It’s stuck in the middle and it’s stubborn as hell …
And Telmore says it’s gonna take about two weeks to fix it … The horror ….
Maybe we walk around feeling damn technologically emancipated, but when the nipple refuses to move … you feel like a caveman eating raw meat in the nude …
This sunday a lot of the people in the advertisingindustry woke up with a headeache the size of Ontario. Last night the 53′rd advertising festival in cannes ended with a bang. Although we weren’t present this year ( … just couldent find the time … or entry … or invitation
… Awards are for losers …) it’s always funny to follow the whole shanannigan online. Especially the blog by Garfield.
Of course the large agencies, as usual, already booked UHaul monthe bach, skilfully anticipating the vast amount of prizes being consumed.(jep..it’s alle made of chocolate..)
If we have had the time, I especially would have been eager to ask the agency, how the hell they came up with the briliant idea of branding the crisp colors of the HDTV, running a TV commercial, that all the potential buyers watches on an old fashion TV set…and you call your selve creative..
That being said the now old spot made by Fallon for SONY, introducing the Bravia TV, is the best advertisement in many many many years … fuck message … fuck channel … it’s good … really good … maybe it even pusches the boundry between ad and art … the whole thing off course directed by Danish sensation Nicolai Fuglsig … oohhh … he’s good …
And for your viewing pleasure … Danish warehouse “magasin” is kicking off their sale this monday. But come monday some sorry programmer is going to be hung out the window … Screendump made sunday at 11 PM …
The company imity is developing a new software utilizing the bluetooth unit in cellphones. When running the applet on your phone, it registres other bluetooth phones within a 10 meter radius, this way building a user generated community.
Let’s do a quick use case scenario..
John decides to cheat on his wife…Every thursday his wife Susan, by coincidence, decides to do the exact same thing. Because of the cheap rooms, and the nice ring to it, they both decide to take their dates to the local cabin-inn. John picks up his secretary, drives to the “hotel” and checks in to room 304. In room 305 Susan is putting on her shoes, looking at the back of the sleeping family lawyer. Both Mark and Susan are the proud owners of a bluetooth equipped cellphone, and off course they are both running the imiyt applet. NOW THAT OUGHT TO TAKE CARE OF THAT BORING “HOW WAS YOUR DAY..?” CONVERSATION DURING DINNER….
The morale to the above story…
As the technology advances, everobody using a minimum of technology assistance in their everyday life, will leave a trail of 1´s and 0’s, forever embedded in the digital network interwowen in our life…For the ultimate scare scenario Busto recommends the book 1984
Or…
Don’t get married and the above is just a story about casual sex…
That being said the app is in the words of Busto..”Fucking cool”..(already signed up for beta testing)… You should to…it’s the napster of the…of…the napster of identity.
This thing..Blogging.. is quite new to us. It´s like a new pair of shoes. The first couple of days you’ve got the “hey…look at me…I’m wearing a new pair of shoes”-thing going on. And then after a couple of days the shoes have transcendet your immanent awareness, returning to the state of just being a pair of shoes…
After a short conversation with my partner yesterday, we decided that we may have come off a bit harsh in the previous post. So for this you will recieve our most sincere and heartfelt apology, along with a coupon for a 30 % discount on Bumblebee tuna .
On a more serious note the nation of Montenegro recently came a bit closer to independence, when the U.N. Security Council unanimously recommended that the newly independent Balkan nation of Montenegro become the 192nd member of the United Nations.
As mentioned before, we do ads for a living. And in reference to the above, the first thing that springs to mind is..”Starting a new country..They’re going to need some serious branding…” The missionstatement is still under developement, but stay in touch and we will keep you updated on our quest to this new subdivision of busto regarding new countries… Think we’re gonna kick it off with a letter to the montenegroin…montenegri..a letter to the government of montenegro.

If a blog ceases to exist and nobody never read it..does it make a sound. For an answer keep reading this blog, and much later the answer will be provided. This way we add a new paradox to the paradox. ‘Cause if nobody is reading this blog, how will they be able to….you get the point.
First of all, let us introduce the blog (”blog….people”…”people….blog”… ” Nice to meet you”…”you too”…”so, what do you do for a….” and so the conversation keeps on until the blog excuses itselve from this horrible conversation.)
First post except the one below. We´re quite fond of it, so we decided to let it hang around. If you don’t get it, you should probably read more books.
So… let´s lay out a few ground rules.
Ad 1. No mercy. Whenever pissed off, you will be the first to know. Don´t think we can hide the fact that we’re a ad agency. So primerly
this is our topic of choice. Be sure to know…lots of stuff to be pissed of about in that area.. Think of us like a younger version of the delightfull
Andy Rooney
Ad 2. As learned from all fellow citizens the advertising industry is cool , occupied only by the cooolest people. Think of it as one large,
neverending VIP party. And we loooove the smell of advertising in the morning…and you are hereby invited..Nothing is sacred.
Ad3. Whenever you feel compelled by what we write it’s your human right to reply (North Korea excused)…The floor is open..
Ad 4. When plannning to purchase something in a store, always be sure never to mix coins and the stuff produced inside your pocket. It makes you look like a hobo…
Enjoy.
Day one…chapter one… page one…
As the two stands in front of the massive gates, there eyes glaze over the front. It’s size, in a very subtle way, emphazising the size of both life and the driving force behind it. Taking a deep breath, they read the lines* inscripted above the gate..

And so it all begins…..
