Busted

Headline: You may have not noticed but women also have noses.

It has a very retro feel to it. Like an ad written by some ad guys leftover from the 1980s.

Ideas

I can’t understand why people are afraid of new ideas. I’m afraid of the old ones.

Give destiny a little push

Urban Seeder is a flirting service site about to be launched by Maya Lotan. The idea is to help users connect with people they meet in public spaces and “lure” them into a private corner to get to know them better. It works with “Seeds”. Each of the Seed has a private number that doesn’t reveal who you are but leads the other person to a webpage where he or she can get a series of clues about you.

Each Seed leads to a private space shared by the new “partner” and you. It’s a kind of exclusive blog for the two of you. You can put there images, videos, music, messages.

A very cute and interesting idea!

Web 2.0

“Web 2.0 is linking people (…) people sharing, trading and collaborating. We will need to rethink a few things… copyright, authorship, identity, ethics, aesthetics, rethorics, governance, privacy, commerce, love, family… ourselves.” – Michael Wesch, professor of Cultural Anthropology at the Kansas State University

Freedom

Sparking curious mind 2.0

After almost a year since I’ve dived into the world of blogging, I somehow lost access to the my blog. So after a week of feeling sorry for myself and disconnected I start again. New address, same kid at play, same sparking curious mind about the world. I’ll continue my ramblings about brands and people, ideas that connect the two and anything that gets my juices flowing.

So without further ado, here is Sparking Curious Mind 2.0!

” Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes”
