Non-Billboard Ads

U2 360° Tour

The set design for U2’s new tour is insane. We’re talking transformable screen insane…

Thomas Jefferson and his friend Robert Patterson were fascinated by ciphers and secret codes. Recently a 200 year old cipher written to Jefferson from Patterson was cracked. The interactive graphic on how he created it is well done.

After months of turmoil, the Minnesota Supreme Court has ruled that Al Franken officially won the senate election. The real question is, did anyone really think Coleman was really going to win?
McCain Camp “Survivor’s Guilt”
30 Jun2009
Palin was totally unfit for the job of Vice President let alone crossing guard? NOOOOOO!
“By all accounts, Palin was either unwilling, or simply unable, to prepare,” the piece says. “In the run-up to the Couric interview, Palin had become preoccupied with a far more parochial concern: answering a humdrum written questionnaire from her hometown newspaper, the Frontiersman …
Winston

Google + Newspapers
30 Jun2009
Google recently put out a blog post inviting major news outlets to become official partners on Youtube and share in the advertising money. In addition to premium placement seems like a good offer and provides an additional badly needed revenue stream.

A new washing machine developed in Britain uses only one cup of water:
It uses less than 10 per cent of the water of conventional machines and 30 per cent less energy by replacing most of the water with thousands of tiny reusable plastic beads to attract and absorb dirt under humid conditions
Magnetic Liquid
29 Jun2009
Very interesting video of tiny liquid iron particles reacting to a magnet. You wouldn’t think it would create that weird spiked circular design.
Kidnapped NY Times Reporter
29 Jun2009
For 7 months the New York Times has been able to keep every major news organization from reporting on the kidnapping of one of their reporters by the Taliban. Fearing his value would rise and therefore make his rescue more difficult they even kept it off Wikipedia, a feat in itself.

Bruno on Conan, both literally and figuratively
New movie about a guy who invents lying, looks pretty good, and I love Ricky Gervais
Why have I not seen a trailer for this movie yet? The movie is called Hurt Locker and it’s about the squads that defuse bombs in Iraq. I think the it looks pretty awesome, and by the way, it is certified fresh, running at 96% over at Rottentomatoes.

CNN has a great calculator giving you a value of how far your salary will go towards cost of living in other cities. Interesting to play with for people considering moving.
Hitler’s Stealth Fighter
26 Jun2009
Years ahead of its time Hitler had created a “stealth fighter” similar to the B-2 bomber. The folks over at National Geographic have recreated it to see whether it was feasbile and the impact it might have had.
Alice
26 Jun2009
Tim Burton is re-making Alice in Wonderland and Disney has released some hi-res images of character/scenes and it looks amazing.
Robot Chicken Transformers
26 Jun2009
From everything I’ve heard the new Transformers movie was awful, which is upsetting considering the first one was pretty awesome in my opinion, and the build up to this movie made it seem like it was going to live up to the standard. Either way, here is every single Transformers scene Robot Chicken has ever done, personal favorite would have to be Voltron got served. The site has a link to every Galifianakis clip from Tim and Eric, which is equally fantastic, although I can’t watch them cause I’m in the freaking UK. Here you thought you were just watching some Robot Chicken clips, but then you get a big helping of Galifianakis too.
Bill Murray
26 Jun2009
Simple interview with Bill Murray turns into a great moment where he brings back a glimpse of his character from Caddyshack, Carl Spackler.
