Madmen periodic table

The season premiere for every new season of Mad Men tv series is the key to a lot of efforts, that grow bigger as the audience of the series. So if last year it was about madmenizing ourselves, this year we’ve found other stuff, such as:

+ a periodic table of Mad Men references, to stay updated of everything’s going on (via Flavorwire)

+ a job interview to find out which job could you be hired at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce

+ a funny Jib Jab sendable video where you can put-your-picture in a 3-minute piece that tells about the whole story and its characters

+ Even a webinar reviewing different marketing topics and present both the 1960′s point of view (by Sterling Cooper) and the 2010 point of view (by HubSpot).

Dating Brian

Meet Brian. He’s from Wisconsin, has almost no experience dating and just moved to New York City. With more than half of New Yorkers single, the dating scene is just ridiculous.

Kinda wicked, an new online dating metaphor, maybe i could do with one as well.

UNICEF dirty water vending machine

A thought provoking approach to showcase the importance of clean water. Nice.

Old spice gets personal

After the ever entertaining old spice commercials, they are back and posted another 25 video’s (and counting) in which the Old Spice guy personally thanks online influentials like Ellen Degeneres, Perez Hilton and Tim Nudd and random strangers for their link love and comments. And not only by name, but in a real ‘I now who you are, and what you are up to’ kinda way. This single tweet by Kevin Rose, with over a million Twitter followers, shows that this next level social media campaigning works like crazy.

Cadbury round YouTube player

To promote its roll pack, Cadbury is using the YouTube video player its own crazy way.

A kinda of out of the box thinking by using technical optical illusion. Too bad it feels kinda of gimmicky somehow no doubt it still brings a sense fun a craziness from the brand.

Auditorium Toys

Auditorium Toys are of superb quality. They are unique toys that are quiet, timeless, durable and beautiful — the type of toys that your grandchildren’s grandchildren will love. Each design is carefully handcrafted and engineered in extremely limited, numbered editions in their small studio in Tucson, Arizona, using time honored techniques and tools. Auditorium believes that the slower you put things together, the slower they fall apart.

Designer Brad Denboer couldn’t quite find the toys he dreamed about so he decided to build them himself. Auditorium Toy Co. was founded with the intention of celebrating the elegance of simple designs fabricated by historical craftsmanship.

What I love the most is the nice touch with the booklet the toy comes with implying that we will pass the toy on to other generations. Every previous owner writes their name into the booklet before passing it on. Beautiful.

Digital pinball

Love this digital pinball done by DoubleYou for Nike Spain, as a part of their country adaptation for the gigantic Write the future campaign, looks like digital content within an analog containeris becoming kind of cool these days.

Shadows

Augmented Shadow, by Joon Moon, 2010. used openframeworks. It’s a tabletop interface on where artificial shadows of tangible objects displayed. You can play with the shadows lying on the boundary between the real, virtual, and fantasy.

iPad Classic

Got a spare mac classic lying around somewhere? Got an iPad but needed a stand desperately? Maybe you should try converting your old mac classic to hold an ipad. This thing looks awesome and made me wanna grab an ipad now. Sweet
