    Are They Talking About You Right Now?

    HSBC Holdings plc is a multi-national banking corporation that is taking a PR beating thanks to a cheeky social media company that decided to use it as an example of how potent online public opinion can be.

    Definitely not an official site by any means, it’s quite simple – they pull in mentions of HSBC from the Twittersphere, then classifies them as a Fail or a Win for the bank…

    The House That LV Didn’t Build

    I came across what I thought was a perfect piece of Brandalizm. While blogs of the world try to figure out whether this house is “for real” I thought it was such a great example of Brandalizm™ I couldn’t resist posting it. Brandalizm says: “You don’t own your brand, I do.”™

    Loss Of Innocence

    Here are the true “modern day scenarios” of what happened to our childhood fairytale princesses. Belle. Snow White, Cinderella, Rapunzel, even Jasmine –all fallen to a world of hatred, disease, gluttony, superficiality, and heartbreak. The artist, Dina Goldstein, says of her “Fallen Princesses” collection:
    “…The happily ever after is replaced with a [...]

    Oh Mac vs. PC, you never seem to get boring. Usually, after a year or so of the same type of ads most companies find themselves in a repetitive rut with no chance of pulling out ala Yo Quiero Taco Bell and the Budweiser Frogs. However, Apple manages to keep things funny and fresh with [...]

    The iWish

    Brands no longer have to hire creative people for their research and development department to come up with new product ideas. All they need to do is  look at blogs like Planet Mat, where fans post their dream gadget concepts hoping and wishing brands might take a hint.
    In this case we have the power duo [...]

    Chicken of the Scene

    BRANDALIZM: “You don’t own your brand – I do.”  These might not have been the exact words these gals were thinking at Last Call when the inspiration for The McNuggetini hit but it still rings true.
    They posted a step by step recipe online and the link to the “late night/after hours snack/drink” got forwarded around [...]

    A Parody of Logos

    We’re glad to see there’s some out there having a little fun with the previously God like respected logos of failing or ailing corporations out there. With government (i.e. taxpayer bailouts) and unemployment continuously growing, we’re betting there’s a little bit of resentment, sneer, and disappointment in the air this holiday season. Ironically, [...]
