As a Chicagoan, I love the weather. Or, maybe, I just love talking about the weather. Either way, I also love me some great advertising. Click on the link above to watch BBH’s work for the Weather Channel.
Have a great weekend!

Check out P&G’s new ad thanking moms everywhere. I’m really not going to lie— I cried like the little Chinese baby at the beginning of the clip. And then I called my mother.
The music, the imagery, the stories… it’ll get to you.
Check this out in time for Mother’s Day and the Olympics!

After starting and stopping development once already on a complex educational website, our client finally gave us the go-ahead to develop the site completely. A month after work had begun, we received the following email:
Client: We have been reviewing our user situation and are unsure whether many of them will have internet access. Could you supply the website on a CD?
So fun!
Don Draper paper doll, the best thing since the James Joyce action figure and Frida Kahlo finger puppet.
Interesting chart from the Economist, showing how important social media is for reaching a huge audience (as if we needed to be reminded)!

Interesting idea for a Hyde Park logo! It would be interesting to know the ideas behind the design… What do you think? Is it representative of Hyde Park?
If Hyde Park were a brand, this is totally what it would look like. The Chicago Neighborhoods Project came up with this awesome idea (and more, for many other Chicago neighborhoods!)
This is so sexy. Love it!
In an upcoming Super Bowl ad that Ad Age describes as “as subtle as a bag of hammers,” Adriana Lima dolls herself up for Valentine’s night.
You know how women have been trying to teach men for decades that a gift or a date is NOT an economic transaction guaranteed to garner bedroom action later that night? Well, Teleflora has missed that message.
-Ken Wheaton of Ad Age
So what do you think? Will the ad be successful (despite, as Wheaton writes, the opposing message given by the real women in these male customers’ lives), or will it fall flat, given the common wisdom that giving doesn’t necessarily mean receiving something in return?
(You can see the full ad here and read Ad Age’s article here.)
