In time for the world cup, Powerade shot a few amazing moves, this one I found pretty funny

Outdoor 3d Projection Taking Off

I’ve always been wondered by how brands are not just using anything as media, like plazas, buildings, the sky … but it’s actually happening … within the past month, first Samsung and then BMW using 3d projection mapping to display a full HD3D display on top of buildings. I don’t know the laws and regulations for it, but I’m sure there are some, otherwise we would see add projected on every building - ad saturation.

Samsung introduced 3d projections in Amsterdam to promote their new to-be-launched 3d tv’s. I would love to get one for the world cup, but I could only hope.

Adobe, stop trying to get into the iPhone

Latest news, Adobe finally gets into the iPhone/iPad by delivering Flash-based ads to the iAd network. Mashable reads: “Adobe to Bring Flash-Based Ads to iPhone : Adobe has partnered with ad company Greystripe to deliver Flash-based ads to Apple’s iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Greystripe makes this possible by converting Flash ads (which the devices do not currently support) into the competing HTML5 format” Now, has Adobe stopped for a second to think, if you can do everything Flash can do in html5, why using Flash at all?

Apple’s HTML5 and Standards Gallery, Not So Standard

Apple has created an HTML5 Showcase that presents its vision for the next generation of the web. Interesting combination of video, audio, typography, transitions, filters, and 360 spins. It works perfectly on my Mac using Snow Leopard and Safari, and works on my iPhone, and my iPad …  however, when I wanted to try it on my Google Chrome, which is actually even better suited for html5, I found that Apple blocks it.

Innovation Proverbs

I found this great post on innovation by Carol Rozwell – a Gartner analyst I am meeting – while I was reading her recent work… and since I will be posting a lot on the topic of innovation, thought it would be great to share this. Innovation Proverbs by Joyce Wycoff PEOPLE do innovation. Innovation means doing something that hasn’t been done before. By definition there is risk involved. No risk; no innovation.
