Yes yes, the big idea is important. And yeah, its good be innovative. But maybe sometimes all you need is some existing functionality and a bunch of free stuff. People love free stuff. Via Crack Unit

Creepy dead chicken man

Oh good! Now the horribly creepy face of the Colonel can bee seen from space, or more easily, from Google Earth.
The temporary giant image was created out of tiles in the town of Rachel, Nevada back in 2006, but has only recently found its way onto the default layer of Google Earth. Not sure which agency was behind it though (perhaps someone might fill me in?).

Found via and via.

A different kind of agency should have a different kind of website.

Robinsons ‘Bird house’

The more i see this ad, the more I love it. Worms in the fridge, pigeons reading the news, hats with room for a beak…. good work BBH.

Bloody thing

Ive just been handed a disembodied finger on Tottenham Court Road. Better impact than a boring old flyer and i didn’t even forget the URL. A quirky way of getting me thinking about safe tape!

tasty tweets

I had dinner at the Albion the other night. The veggi menu options were frankly average – but the amazing cupcakes made up for it.

Thankfully, you can see exactly when a fresh batch has been taken out the oven, by following @albionsoven. A little gadget in their kitchen allows the baker to turn a dial, press a button, et viola. – tweet sent.

BakerTweet from POKE on Vimeo.

Kudos to poke for creating a arduino based kitchen friendly gadget, that builds the relationship between their client and the peckish users.
