Here’s an interesting article I found today on the effects and consumer reaction to green advertising.

That’s advertising based on your company’s environmental benefits – for those about to ask.

Is your company taking advantage of a ‘green’ perception?

If not, can you think of any way in which it could?

You can find the whole article here including to green advertising examples.

UPDATE: I’ve corrected the link above so it’s working better now.

Real Estate Web Site

Hello everybody.

I’ve been incredibly busy over the last couple of weeks so unfortunately there has been a break in recent posts.

So, I thought I’d show you one of the recent projects that I’ve been up to.

R & R Real Estate is an Estate Agents based in the South East Suburbs of Victoria.

The aim on this site is to draw customers to the 3 core business areas of the business, Selling, Buying and Renting Property while at the same time allowing the web site to maintain a pleasing, professional aesthetic.

I think we’ve succeeded with this solution. What do you think?

2008 south by south west

SXSW is a yearly conference in Austin Texas that says it covers, music, film and interactive topics.

In reality, it covers a whole lot more.

Literally hundreds of speakers getting together to speak about all things creative, innovative and ground breaking.

Unfortunately, like many people, I find myself on the other side of the world and over committed to my work to take a trip over to the U.S. and soak up 10 days of thoughts and ideas from brilliant speakers. There is also the issue of it being finished for this year (March 7-16).

So what’s an information junkie to do…?

There is a solution. Many of the panels have been recorded as audio podcasts which you can download for free.

So far I’ve listen to panels on time management, web design, branding, digital effects on a budget, industrial design, business start-ups and game theory.

There are more to come, so make sure you subscribe to the rss feeds which can be found here at feedburner or by doing a search for SXSW in the podcast section of itunes.

I hope you find them as useful and thought provoking as I have.

Make sure to subscribe to the podcasts before they take them down otherwise you may miss the chance to download them.

Don’t be afraid to post your comments on this blog, I’d be interested to read your thoughts.
