if yer logo ain’t broke…

MTVlogos

This new MTV logo has the fresh, clean crisp smell of New Coke.

One letter brings this redesign all home for me: Y.

If you want to drop the work marks, OK, I get why. But the rest of it is a bastardization of a world-wide icon.

Please feel free to tell me I’m wrong and why. Or am I not being harsh enough?

your super bowl advertisements all in one nice tidy package

Super Bowl Ads Preview

A tip of the hat to my voice over friend Bill Pryce who noted Advertising Age’s summary of the 2010 Super Bowl ads for folks like me who were actually in the studio during most of the game (and not complaining about the bidness either).

pretty darn funny

In case you might have missed it during the Super Bowl….

P.S. Here’s a little story about how the promo came about from Late Show EP Rob Burnett.

podcamp toronto 2010 audio promo

podcamp_toronto_2010_125x125-2

I was advised that there might be a audio script promo coming for Podcamp Toronto 2010 but I never saw it…maybe I missed it.

At any rate, I decided to write my own tonight and this silliness is what I came up with. Please tweet it, facebook it, linked in it etc.

If you have a podcast you want to use it in or some other proper venue to promote Podcamp Toronto 2010, please feel free to use it.

I’ll see you there…and if you see me first, please say hi.
