In a situation that was a extremely good publicity for Volvo, but not so great for the Fendi designer, Karl Lagerfeld has shown up inadvertently in a Swiss ad campaign for the car brand.
How did the accidental endorsement happen? Let’s just say it was all a matter of appearance.

Like something straight out of a Disney…

Yesterday at the second annual BlogSavannah UnConference, social media consultant and keynote speaker, Josh Hallett, said it was interesting to see how different cities adopt hyperlocal blogging. He mentioned that Tampa and Orlando (near his home) both have lots of hyperlocal bloggers.
One of the things I look for at a conference is memes. They’re often hanging there in the air, ripe for inspection.
As it happens, today I stumbled upon EveryBlock, an aggregator play in the hyperlocal segment.
The service is available in New York, Chicago and San Francisco, so I put Lincoln Square in the search box and bingo, the site returned news and images from the old ‘hood.
Specifically, EveryBlock returns updates on everything from business and liquor license applications to street closures. One article I found right away was this one on green building practices at an 18-unit condo development in the heart of Lincoln Square.

Jackie Huba and her man moved from Chicago to Austin recently. She’s finding lots of things to love about Austin, including a retail space she likes to call Mr. Flagship, or Mr. F, for short.
I love the Whole Foods flagship store at 6th and Lamar in Austin, Texas. I’ve dated its cousins in Chicago, New York and Dallas, but Mr. Flagship is a hunk.
As an expression of her devotion, Huba ate every meal for a week at Mr. F.
Here’s her visual documentation, a.k.a. photoset on Flickr. Whole Foods doesn’t allow photographs to be taken in its stores, but Huba asked for and received permission.
According to Ad Age, National Public Radio has been able to grow its total ad revenue from $18 million in 2002 to $46 million in 2007, in part by the leading the podcasting charge.
