Xmas Links

Here's a quick roundup of the Xmas links that have come our way in 2005. No surfing Santa's this year which is a change. (many links lifted from adverblog and Ad Rants

A very tone deaf Xmas from the Soaperheroes at Soap Creative. And for those wondering Chuck works in Soap's account department. He looks after the receivables.

Care Gift Shop

Ever since aid agencies started putting products to donation amounts it makes giving so much easier. I much prefer buying a goat than just donating $50.

Care Australia has a nice and simple gift shop open now. View it here.
Site by the talented people at Visual Jazz.

This year why not have your agency buy a plough for a village or a couple of cows.



NineMSN Creative Clique 2006

It's the online advertising award that celebrates the scam ad. No not Cannes it's NineMSN's Creative Clique and it's back for 2006 with a trip to Cannes and $100K in media up for grabs.
