Visa TV ad from Saatchi & Saatchi London

I caught this VISA commercial from Adliterate, I guess the first fruits from his new role as Head of Strategy at Saatchi & Saatchi London. I like it and was engaged to the very end, even when you know the pay off, it works.

Twitter Love

Hugh Macleod of Gaping Void articulates the strengths of twitter against the other new communication platforms. I always thought it would be the perfect communication tool at a music festival where you could effectively mass text message all your friends at once but I have seen the light and see how it's a platform clearly populated by influencers, social media marketeers. A great platform to spread the day to day but also links of interest. Here's Shel Israel's insightful post on twitter at SXSW.

Here's Twitter in plain english from the wonderful common craft blog.

Tallest Building in the World?

'The structural engineers at Hyder Consulting have announced that they are planning what will be, by an overwhelming margin, the world's tallest skyscraper, coming in at double the height of the Burj Dubai – or very nearly one vertical mile. The firm has "confirmed that the tower would be located in the Middle East region," we're told, "but would not give any further details." Here's an altered BBC diagram about the world's tallest buildings to give you a sense of what this might mean, size-wise. Note the comparative size of the Empire State Building.' via bldgblog & dvice.

'Standing over 5,000 feet, the proposed MILE tower in Jeddah City Saudi Arabia could someday claim the coveted title of world's tallest building. Although technically we can build as high as we want, other variables prevent skyscrapers from every going this tall. Issues like transport, safety, and evacuation.
Still this is chump change compared to Japan's proposed XSEED below. via electro-plankton
