A couple of Gustavs from CP+B created this company to build software specifically for the advertising industry.

Two of their existing applications look pretty awesome. Rich, their refined analytics app and the one I am even more excited about, Copybox. Copybox is what they refer to as "a photoshop for copywriters."

A dynamic text editor with built in reaction variables allows you to create more indepth copy and create new ideas on the fly. Actionscript export lets you implement dynamic copy into flash ads targeted specifically towards users.

holy

are you kidding me? get into this shit fast.

crowdsourcing?

ok so there is this new thing, crowdsourcing, this guy John Winsor, previous owner of Radar i think, went to work at CP+B is all about this stuff.

so he left Crispin and started Victors and Spoils. part of me thinks this is a brilliant way to get work done. part of me thinks this is a lazy and inefficient way to get work done for clients who don't know any better.

there are efforts being put in place to systematize (is that even a fucking word?) crowdsourcing for agencies and i am sure we will see much of it pan out in the next few years.

lab rats anyone?

found this guy browsing around yesterday. i love stuff like this. it is all really simple and can be hand done and i think stuff like the polaroids can be such good process on one hand, but keepsakes and memories at the same time.
