I call Adpulp, "The Chronicle of Bright Ideas," because I'm a collector and admirer of smart thinking and elegant doing. After a long week with my head inside a strategy deck, I'm now choosing to unwind on Saturday morning by reflecting more deeply on three articles in my queue. 1- "Brand First" Is the Wrong Position Steve Bryant is a storytelling weirdo at Article Group.
