I'm scratching my head here and wondering who decided in their wisdom that 'celebrity sell out' www.celebritysellout.co.uk is a good title for a branded online gossip blog produced by a marketing title. For them to position celebrity marketing tie-ups as sell outs is counter productive is it not? Granted some can be a bit wide of the mark - think Johnny Lidon for Country Life butter - but on the whole they are considered decisions based on target audience research and lead to increased sales and heightened brand awareness.

I thought Greenpeace added a new dimension to creative campaigning with their purchase of land near the proposed 3rd runway at Heathrow. They purchases a small but important strip of land and are going to divide it up into thousands of individual plots which will be sold on to supporters. The plan is that the red tape involved in any compulsory purchases will bring horrendous delays to the process and prehaps derail it. Genius!

I was shocked to hear that Barack Obama is considering getting a labradoodle. Not that I have any experience in the breed, but the fact that it even existed. Someone out there is genetically modifying dogs and not telling anyone. What else have they created? The Alsapug? The Cockerdoodle?
