Billboard-less Brazil
São Paulo has banned all outdoor advertising effective 1/1/08.
Not surprisingly, advertisers don't think this is a very good idea.
I was amused by a few of their arguments, including that "streets will be less safe at night with the loss of lighting from outdoor advertising" and that "when you're in your car or alone on foot, [ads are] a form of entertainment that helps relieve solitude and boredom."Labels: advertising, funny

Is it just me, or with the new blue background (which I really do like)...I'm missing the links! Some of the sentences have words missing!! Of course, that does make the blog extra "exciting" because now I have to use my mouse to 'find' all the links and 'hidden' things... so ... there's always an up-side, right?

it's not just you. michael is working on a new blog template for me, and the CSS he created has somehow taken over my current template. i'm glad to hear you like the blue, since that's one of the colors in his new layout. stay tuned!
