A New Silicon Valley Rule? All Great Internet Cos. Build an Ad Network


In Silicon Valley, there's an old adage that says all great internet companies eventually build an e-mail service. Nearly every major player from Google to Comcast, Facebook to MySpace, Yelp to LinkedIn, has some form of user-to-user e-mail within its site or application. Today, I propose a new maxim — all great internet companies eventually build (or buy) an ad network.

Adidas Teamgeist

Adidas Teamgeist

Com o mesmo visual HQ de sua atual campanha futebolística global, a Adidas lançou hoje uma iniciativa especialmente criada para a seleção da Alemanha, terra-natal da marca. Mais do que isso, tanto em termos de produção e storytelling, é o melhor trabalho feito dentro do novo conceito da Adidas com futebol.

“Teamgeist” é um game online que conta a seguinte história: uma camisa não é nada sem identidade, já que um time de futebol é construído com grandes feitos. Em “Teamgeist”, você é o responsável por ajudar os jogadores alemães a recuperarem suas identidades, reconstruindo grandes momentos das Copas de 1954, 1974 e 1990 (o tricampeonato alemão).

Adidas Teamgeist

Cada capítulo é como em uma partida de xadrez, você precisa vencer um jogo de futebol dividido em turnos, definindo movimentos no “tabuleiro”, passando a bola e clicando no alvo no momento certos. As duas primeiras fases são contra a Hungria, e a terceira contra a Argentina.

A diferença entre elas é que na última parte é possível escolher os jogadores que farão parte do time, cada um com características distintas. O ponto fraco da jogabilidade reside nos alvos, tanto para realizar os dribles como para chutar ao gol: estão sempre nos mesmos lugares.

Adidas Teamgeist

Entre os capítulos, existe ainda uma integração bacana com o Facebook, que permite a publicação dos resultados diretamente no seu perfil.

Estrelado por Michael Ballack, Lukas Podolski, Philipp Lahm, entre outros, “Teamgeist” resume em um game online a história e a identidade da camisa da seleção alemã de futebol. O site ainda traz diversos extras, com galeria, HQ interativa, etc, tudo com uma produção e estética impecáveis.

A criação é da sueca North Kingdom. O incrível filme abaixo, que é a introdução de “Teamgeist”, está em alemão, mas o game em si tem uma versão em inglês. O blog da Adidas mostra também diversos making of’s deste matador projeto online, com o qual você certamente vai (e deve) gastar um bom tempo navegando.
