This ubiquitous bottle of red pasty fire needs an ad campaign with a good tag line. How about…

What? Is the open mouth too sexual? Don’t blame HER, that stuff is atomically spicy.

A blog post title a la Steven Colbert, don’t you think? Just trying to make a list of some great banner ad executions for those of you trying to innovative in the space. Here’s what I dig:
Pringles’ “Can-hands”
The infinite line of copy dialog… Keep clicking, and the banner keeps talking to you…

Apple’s NYTimes.com Customer Service Bald Guy Take-Over
Huzzah for Forrester Research (a former employer of mine) showing up in… an Apple banner ad?? The Mac Vs. PC dudes take on a before and after hair transplantee in video dialog that goes across the screen. Big entertainment value there.

Vovlo’s In-Banner Twitter Ad
Contextual Tweets within a rich media banner for the… first time ever, I think.

It’s like OneLaptopPerChild (OLPC) meets some ultra-thin net book. This web book functions as a laptop and a folded easel, and offers a ton of different usage scenarios, as well as simple sleek interface. Pentagram’s NYC shop designed everything form the GUI to the packaging. Droolzzzz!! In fact, the lead creative director is Lisa Strausfeld who did the OLPC GUI.

Why can’t all desktops automatically look and feel like this, no customization necessary?

I don’t think this was based on any kind of solid research, but I do love a very broad, rich color pallet as much as the next guy.

MoMA iPhone App: GeoArt

An awesome idea for a MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) iPhone App. Allow people to turn on an app, walk around, and create shareable art from their walking journey. Geolocation visuals. It’s a great idea because it fits the brand, provides a takeaway, for an art-loving, tech savvy audience. What I don’t understand is why I can’t find it in the App store, which with over a gazillion apps now, has become haystack with few needles. Like finding a diamond in a coal mine, a gem in a turd store, and other poor analogies.
