ffffinally!

I ffffinally got myself an invite to ffffound! Hooray. For whatever reason it is next to impossible to get an invite to join the site.

Anyways, I was poking around the site and came across these great images used to promote ffffound’s in-house t-shirts. What do you do when you can’t get a decent looking model for your photoshoot? You force Paris Hilton and Kate Moss to model your gear by ripping up the photos and sticking them together! Brilliant.

Design your own Ferrari.

So designing a pair of NikeIDs just isn’t turning your crank anymore? Well my friend, you are in luck! Ferrari recently introduced their “One-to-One Personalization Program”! Everybody loves the 612 Scaglietti but now you can have it any way you want it, rich boy!

I mean the Scaglietti already comes with stock features like being able to change the entire ceiling from opaque to translucent with the turn of a knob (this is true), but you don’t want to be seen driving around in a stock 612, do ya? So just fly yourself over to Maranello, Italy, pop inside the Ferrari Factory, and have your personal Ferrari consultant install the shag rug and the carbon fiber chandelier you always wanted.

Booooooom gets a Zuuuuuuune.

The traffic on the site continues to climb, so a giant thank you to all of you who are spreading the word! Business is boooooooming! This could be why a box arrived at my doorstep the other day containing a brand-spanking new Zune. Apparently 300 bloggers across Canada are receiving these 8GB flash Zunes and Microsoft is hoping for some good old fashion word-of-mouth text-on-blog advertising. As I opened the box I said a little prayer for the Zune: “Please God, let the Zune be a decent product because I am going to be blatantly honest about it, and if it’s bad… this review could get ugly.”

Insight.

Does Insight have the best art direction or what? (If you say “what” I’ll kill you with my bare hands). Have a look at some selections from their upcoming surf, skate and women’s ad campaigns and you’ll see why they are one of the best brands out there right now (my 2 cents).
