Had a great week with my mom and sister visiting from Colorado. And as a bonus, they brought Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies from my niece, Grace. Yummy! The taste brings back memories of living in Mound, MN…

Change is Hard
Friday, May 11th, 2007
Old-schooler, Rupert Murdoch, writes a thoughtful piece for Fortune saving the best for last:
…the future of media is a future of relentless experimentation and innovation, accelerating change, and–for those who embrace the new ways in which consumers are connecting with each other–enormous potential.
I agree 100% and present it in several of the presentations I’ve given to old-school ad agencies. Bring on the new and let the naysayers sit and grumble.

Nike Running to CP+B
Saturday, May 5th, 2007
This is old news but I had to post it as it’s still relevant . The news (here, here and here) being Nike is moving its running business to Crispin Porter + Bogusky. A lot has been written about it as Nike and Wieden + Kennedy grew up together. Of note: In January of 2006 I made a trip to W+K in Portland. It was my first time up in the Pacific Northwest and it reminded me a bit of my native Minnesota.
Also of note: Interview with Alex Bogusky from the New Denver AD Club can be found here, here and here.
