Designer cria versão “honesta” de slogans

Cliff Dickens é um jovem designer que resolveu iniciar um projeto pessoal em 2011 chamado Honest Slogans. A ideia, segundo ele, era criar “uma coleção de slogans honestos para marcas conhecidas, oferecendo um insight sobre o que as pessoas realmente pensam sobre elas”. Depois de ficar um tempo parado, o HonestSlogans.com está de volta à ativa, mais “honesto” do que nunca.

A ideia, apesar de não ser nova ou inédita – aqui no Brasil temos o Tumblr Slogans Sinceros -, não deixa de cumprir seu propósito de provocar reflexão e até mesmo algumas risadas. Mais ou menos como também fez o Estúdio Maentis, com logos, em Universal Unbranding. Fizemos uma pequena seleção para este post, mas vale dar uma olhada no site.

Heineken USA CMO Leaves for Weight Watchers


Heineken USA Chief Marketing Officer Lesya Lysyj is leaving the beer importer to become the president of Weight Watchers North America.

“This is a special opportunity for Lesya to take the next step in her career from CMO into a President role. While we will miss her, we are very proud of her,” Heineken CEO Dolf van den Brink said in a memo to employees on Thursday. “Her successor will be named in the coming months,” he said, noting her last day would be Nov. 15.

A Weight Watchers spokeswoman did not respond to a request for comment.

Can Oliver Stone (?!) Convince Americans to Protest Against the NSA?


The Electronic Frontier Foundation, a nonprofit San Francisco-based organization that works to “defend your rights in the digital world,” has released “Stop Watching Us: The Video” on YouTube as part of its effort to promote its Stop Watching Us effort. In addition to organizing a petition (“We demand the U.S. Congress reveal the full extent of the NSA’s spying programs”) that has garnered more than half a million signatures to date, Stop Watching Us will stage “A Rally Against Mass Surveillance” in Washington, D.C,. this Saturday.

There are some heavy-hitters involved in Stop Watching Us — including Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web; Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian; and Daniel “Pentagon Papers” Ellsberg; as well as several former National Security Agency employees-turned-whistleblowers who predate Edward Snowden — but for some reason Stop Watching Us decided to celebrify this video by mixing in some famous talking heads.

So brace yourself for stern soundbites from Phil Donahue, Maggie Gyllenhaal, John Cusack, Wil Wheaton and, perhaps most weirdly and inappropriately, professional conspiracy theorist and history-fictionalizer Oliver Stone.

Twitter Seeks $1.4 Billion in Biggest Web IPO Since Facebook


Twitter is seeking as much as $1.4 billion in the largest Internet initial public offering since Facebook, betting it can convince investors of its ability to turn 500 million tweets a day into profits.

Twitter plans to sell 70 million shares at $17 to $20 each in the offering, according to a regulatory filing today. That would value the company at $10.9 billion at the top end of the range, cheaper than Facebook and LinkedIn Corp., based on the 544.7 million common shares outstanding after the IPO. The IPO is set to price Nov. 6, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

The six-year-old short-messaging site, which draws more than 230 million monthly active users and has transformed the way people communicate, is taking advantage of renewed appetite for social-media stocks to sell a 13% stake. While the company has more than doubled revenue annually, it hasn’t yet turned a profit and the pace of user gains is slowing. Still, Chief Executive Officer Dick Costolo is betting the service’s popularity on mobile phones will help lure advertisers.
