This is one of the best flash ads I’ve seen since the iPod Touch broke Yahoo.  Amazing work and kudos to Frito Lay for breaking the mold… literally.  Now send me some free stuff.  I love Salsa!

Make sure to check it out “And Then There Was Salsa” on Vimeo to get the full effect.

I didn’t watch the Oscar’s last night so I didn’t get to see this when all the cool kids did, but if you’re not a cool kid either here you go!  Apple’s first iPad TV commercial featuring “There Goes My Love” by The Blue Van.  Check it out after the break and let us know if you want one.

Augmented reality is growing in popularity but this is by far the best display I’ve seen.  For the new Adidas sneakers, the company has embedded codes in their tongues, which enables you to open up an online world via webcam at the Adidas website.  This is great advertising and product design!

Entering the last day of the Vancouver Olympics you’re probably getting used to a lot of the flags from around the world.  Now what if those flags were made of food?

Well if they were, they would look like this.  These dishes were created to celebrate the Sydney International Food Festival, the flags of participating countries were recreated using  popular local foods from each nation.  Now I’m hungry…

    This is a cool ad campaign from Adidas called “Create Your Adicolor”.  The ads were produced by agency TBWA Barcelona and the photographs were by Ramón Serrano.  I haven’t seen these state side so I assume they were kept across the pond.  Check out more images after the break.

    Just another great Bud Light commercial.  I think this was supposed to make it into the Super Bowl but not sure it did.  It may have but I didn’t see it we all know if I didn’t see it that means it didn’t happen.  FTW!
