Around the Creative World (2/1/10)
Happy Super Bowl Week. Can’t wait for football to resume after a weekend off… What’s that? They played the Pro Bowl yesterday? Seriously? Oh…
Anyway, get your popcorn ready…and your burgers, hot dogs, beef brisket, Doritos, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Beer, and anything else you consume on Super Bowl Sunday. The match-up between the Colts and Saints should be a good one.
Here are this week’s links:
- Here is Adweek’s official Super Bowl ad coverage.
- Ever wonder how the “Punch Bug” or “Slug Bug” game started? Volkswagen answers.
- A really bad Charles Barkley Taco Bell campaign launched…
- Here is Ad Age’s Super Bowl coverage.
- BrandFreak: Naming experts split on whether ‘iPad’ is a terrible name or not
- Beyonce took home a record-breaking six Grammy’s last night. (Or so I’m told.)
- By the way, Avatar won the box office, again, for a seventh-consecutive session. No big deal.
- NBC has renewed “Parks and Recreation” for a third season. I, for one, am glad. This show is extremely underrated and has only improved since it’s first season.
- Netflix has added about 300 indie films for on-demand streaming.
- And, in case you haven’t heard, “Jersey Shore” is returning for a second season with it’s original cast members. Our country is going down the tubes, because of the tube, but it’s never been so much fun.
