Snickers ajuda a “exorcizar” a fome no Halloween

Todo mundo já sabe que Você Não é Você Mesmo Quando Está com Fomee que em casos extremos, qualquer mestre das artes marciais pode começar a agir como Mr. Bean ou, quem sabe, agir como Regan MacNeil, a garotinha possuída de O Exorcista. É neste segundo caso que se encaixa Twisted, filme criado pela Latinworks para o chocolate Snickers.

Apesar de produzido para o mercado norte-americano, o filme é em espanhol, com foco na comunidade latina. A trama se passa em uma festa de Halloween, quando uma garota é possuída por uma personalidade assustadora. Nada que uma barra de Snickers não possa exorcizar, é claro.

Produção muito bem-feita e super de acordo com a época do ano. Vale o play.

Assista ao primeiro teaser de “Os Vingadores 2: A Era de Ultron”

Ontem a noite vazou o primeiro teaser de “Os Vingadores 2: A Era de Ultron”. Uma cópia com qualidade ruim e escura, mas que serviu para a Marvel adiantar o lançamento oficial em alguns dias.

Portanto, agora você pode assistir o trailer em toda a sua glória acima, com a promessa de um vilão finalmente interessante (e perigoso), além do Loki. É um teaser bem generoso, com mais de dois minutos de duração, que vai deixar os fãs com muito material para análise e discussão.

Dirigido novamente por Joss Whedon, o filme estreia no Brasil em 30 de abril de 2015.

Cybersecurity and Data Breaches: What CMOs Need to Know


With the explosion of today’s digital age, cybersecurity is quickly becoming one of the foremost issues facing CMOs. In order to be successful, CMOs must prepare themselves for a highly dynamic cybersecurity threat landscape, and with the help of the C-suite, develop a proactive strategy to prepare the organization for the dangers lurking around the corner.

Digital technology has opened many new doors for organizations, enabling greater brand engagement and innovative customer experiences. But, at the same time, it has also exponentially multiplied the points of vulnerability for data breaches and theft of proprietary data. With the increased use, integration, and interconnection of mobile devices, security is even more imperative. This is particularly vital for marketers who must incorporate security into their strategic marketing plans and determine how new security solutions can deliver valuable customer insights.

CMOs are key drivers of digital-based growth for most organizations, yet many are not accustomed to working with the CIO and certainly not in the habit of collaborating with the security department. So how can the CMO improve in these areas? It starts with increased communication with the CEO, CIO and the board.

Macy's Links With Google To Show Mobile Users What's In Stock Nearby


Imagine spilling coffee on your way to a holiday party and needing a new shirt right way. Macy’s has a solution: A quick Google search on your smartphone will tell you if that red sweater is stocked at a Macy’s nearby, in your size, and at what price.

Beginning in November, shoppers can search for an item on their phone and see what’s stocked at their nearest Macy’s location. Alongside the images are product details like price, size and color, directions to the store, and a link to the item on the retailer’s website. The program works with Google’s proximity marketing platform in an effort to drive sales in stores and online during the biggest shopping season of the year.

“We’re trying to encourage omni-shopping behaviors in consumers,” said Jennifer Kasper, group VP-digital media and multicultural marketing at Macy’s. “We know that we have great opportunity to build a longer, more loyal relationship with them if we are successful in communicating and encouraging discovery.”

Transparent S-House Structure

Située à Saitama au Japon, la « S-House » a été imaginée par le studio d’architecture japonais Yuusuke Karasawa Architects. La structure ressemble à une maison que l’on peut déplier comme un accordéon. La transparence révèle 5 étages reliés par des petits escaliers blancs et poutres qui se croisent. Cette maison transparente a été commissionnée par un client qui voulait témoigner du manque d’intimité à l’ère d’Internet.
