Jonathan from Spotify
We love Jonathan from Spotify which is why we've created Jonathan Premium.wmv. A global Jonathan community... No seriously. Anyone with Spotify lacking a premium membership is familiar with Jonathan. It's his voice that pops up right when you're about to play your favourite tune to your friend. It's his voice that surprises you when you're skipping through songs to find the one you're looking for. It's his voice that you can't mute to stop it from flooding into your brain. Listening to Jonathan is not optional, you have to do it!

Digital Surface, part II
I had finally chance to play with Microsoft Surface. User experience was better than I thought and interactivity was quick enough, not of course like wiht mouse but good enough to lobby context. Once interior designers get their hands into the digital surface ecosystems we will probably see wonderful ubi-communication once seen only in movies.

10 Branding and Marketing Trends for 2010
Excellent thoughts about future branding and marketing http://www.brandingstrategyinsider.com/2009/10/10-branding-and-marketing-trends-for-2010.html
Accommodating these trends will require a paradigm change on the parts of some companies. But whether a brand does something about it or not, the future is where it's going to spend the rest of its life. How long that life lasts is up to the brand, determined by how it responds to today's reality.
1) Value is the new black
2) Brands increasingly a surrogate for "value"
3) Brand differentiation is Brand Value
4) "Because I Said So" is so over
5) Consumer expectations are growing
and 5 more, worth of reading and thinking
