Pop Conference Culture and Gaffe Tape
Overheard at Ad:Tech:
"How many of you have seen Minority Report? It was a movie that was kind of near and dear to marketers. It's a good movie to watch to see what the future of advertising could be." - Susan Bratton, Ad:Tech chair
It seems that movies loom large on the marketer's mind. Other films name dropped so far today: The Hucksters, A Beautiful Mind.
Gaffe Tape:
Monday morning's keynote session opened with a bit of a gaffe, as a promotional video segment for Livemercial started to cycle through a second time before the house staff could stop the video. After the opening keynote, the video and audio continued to cycle through several times, practically clearing the hall. OK. I now know the name Livemercial. And it irritates me.
