Rob van Vuuren introduces the Twitter Stick – the must have killer Twitter app

Posted on 30. Nov, 2009 by Jonathan Cherry.

Depending on a heavy dose of VC – Rob van Vuuren’s Twitter Stick could be the next big, totally-needed Twitter app.

We personally prefer the Twiiter Bat which we use to beat the crap out of our aging Mac everytime it plays up while on Twitter – which is often.

More technological breakdowns thanks to Brendan Jack.

You know Augmented Reality is gonna be big when it leaps from the iron grip of the geeks to the front pages of Esquire magazine. Hell even Robert Downey Jnr thinks it’s cool.

It’s all just so exciting. Watch out for the next issue of You / Huisgenoot with a Kurt Darren ‘private show tune’ AR code on the cover [stofslette en alles].

When we played the previous ‘sheep‘ version to some school kids recently they packed out in hysterics as a surprising result. Now we don’t find the dog with the weird mouth that funny, but have to admit that the campaign is growing on us.

At first – the mouth and all was a little freakish, but like the pig in Babe we’re noticing it less. The series isn’t set to debut on any of our top ten lists just yet, but let’s wait and see what else they got. [thanks Petra]

Ads 'that make you wanna go hmm?!'

Ads 'that make you wanna go hmm?!'

Sometimes ads just don’t make any sense; no matter how long you sit and stare at them.

Often the picture quality is brilliant, or subject matter is funny, but the concept itself just either doesn’t seem to fit in with the brand, or the viewer is left thinking, ‘what am I missing here?’

To showcase these moments, we made a list of 10 print ads that we feel baffle the mind, and ‘make you wanna go huh?’

The source of creativity according to John Cleese

Posted on 23. Nov, 2009 by Jonathan Cherry.

‘Give yourself some time to breathe and chill. Ideas come from calm spaces in time’.

That’s the gist of it, but if you want to be entertained by Mr Cleese for ten minutes on his source of creativity, then just do it.
