Friendly discussions.

Upon speaking with my friends about my Project.

Advertising in the Web 3.0 (note to self - catchier title needed)

My friend suggested that I do an experiment using Second Life and all that. perhaps documenting the reactions of others.

We also had a debate on how sure I am that everyone will be using the virtual world in the future. Second Life was said to take the world by storm..but has since only made ripples amongst gamers.

This brought on the discussion of trends.
Remember? : MIRC came then came ICQ (the annoying Uh-Oh~!) , then came MSN and Yahoo Messenger. Skype and other messenging services, seem to suggest constant waves of technology and programs.

Friendster to Myspace to Facebook. I may have to work on advertising that is immune to communication evolution.

I think I can crossreference this with literal evolution of species in Nature. how certain traits survive hostile environments. (a lot to work on)

In the meanwhile, these are some pictures from Second Life.

Selling "Toxic Masculinity" in Branding

With the way people are responding to the latest Gillette ad, anyone would think “toxic masculinity” was a new term coined to shame men.   Gillette isn’t the first men’s brand to redefine its image, a process that actually started months before  the world went crazy this week over the shaving company’s new ad . from news.com.au  - ( https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/beauty/for-men/why-mens-brands-tackling-toxic-masculinity-is-nothing-new/news-story/5ffadfa7859513b18883a2b09cc46f20 ) Coming from the perspective of Advertising & Branding, one of the basics in profiling your target market in a creative brief, is to define their demographic points to make assumptions.
