An amusing piece of marketing that is likely to put off potential clients but would sure make a nice little treat on leaving the clinic.
Imagine meeting someone at a conference or party and they pass you this while saying, “here’s my card.”

Aviary offers an impressive array of web based applications including; image and vector editors, desktop publishing, music creation and sound editing.
These apps are usable for any computer and browser that has Adobe Flash 9 installed. Some can also be downloaded for use offline, these will require Adobe AIR. At the moment the software collection is still in Beta testing but once public I imagine that this suite is going to immensely popular.
Those of a certain age will be able to think back with a nostalgic glaze over their eyes and have fond memories making a mixtape. Spending hours with your vinyl collection and perhaps sneaking the odd track from siblings’ records in order to make the perfect cassette tape for the chosen genre, theme or mood.
Mixtapes were popular in the days when ’syncing’ meant pressing the play and record buttons a couple of nanoseconds before the single or LP began. Now you can relive those days (sort of) and create your own mixtape on the web using a wonderfully simple site named Mixwit.com.

Recently the sportswear manufacturer Puma launched their MONGOLIAN SHOE BBQ which has the choice of two styles of training shoe and lets you really go to town on making them look individual by using a fantastic array of colour and material choices. This is a far cry from selecting how much RAM and which Graphics Card you want in your new Mac or PC. It ought to be noted that the way it is presented is really pushing forward the boundaries of consumer interaction and this is likely to be a trend that will actually become commonplace with big brands.
