Would you taste a flavor strip glued in a magazine?
I just read the August Issue of Creativity and found a curious new technology inside.
It was a peel ‘n taste sample for Hornitos Tequila.
Luckily for Hornitos (bad name) I’ve seen their bottles in the bar or I might have thought this was a joke.
For the record I like tequila, but I have no desire to stick my tounge on a strip glued inside a magazine.
Yes, it looks like it is hermetically sealed and inquisitive people like me might be able to rationalize the chances this was free of any disease.
Upon further inspection it contains no alchohol and is “a flavor rendition only”.
I’ve gotta know - would you try it?

Amazing, even inside the box.
I sat and watched in awe the Summer Olympic Opening Ceremonies.
I enjoyed all the lights, the 500 ft scroll, the choreographed fireworks, etc.
But the part I enjoyed the most was the moveable print box demonstration.
My family sat around speculating how much time it would take to create all those boxes, mapping out the floor, and programing the computers to control hydraulics.
And then the lights came up and people popped out of the boxes.
Who says you have to rely on technology to wow people.

Instead of surfing, Stumble Upon the web
If you have no specific website in mind when you jump online, sign up for a StumbleUpon account, select some general interests of your and then Stumble away.
Warning, this will greatly cut into your reality TV time…

Wish we thought of this...
To get people connected with the San Francisco Zoo, BBDO West in SF created a multi-media campaign called “Critter Quest”.
People stand in front of a series of local bus shelters and postings at the zoo, which are playfully adorned with everything from horns to butterfly wings and oversized ears. The copy suggests having a friend take a picture of you in front of the bus shelter/postings, and then instructs you where to load on the OurSFZoo website. Thousands have submitted photos so far – we’re interested in seeing how creative people will get.
