Helsinki Has Sass, Declares Itself World’s First “City As A Service”

November 19, 2019 By David Burn

Finland is north. For some technology workers, it’s true north. Helsinki and some of Finland’s most renowned tech companies launched a talent attraction campaign in September branding Helsinki as the world’s first City as a Service (CaaS). The campaign received close to 7,000 applications of tech professionals interested to relocate to Helsinki. “Finding the best […]

No One Wants To Be Shot While Shopping for Slacks (Nor At Any Other Time)

November 18, 2019 By David Burn

Another Monday in America. Another lethal discharge of weapons at a Walmart store, this time in Duncan, Oklahoma. Oklahoma, it must be noted, is an open-carry state. Oklahoma state law explicitly authorizes open carry of both loaded and unloaded shotguns, rifles, and handguns without a license. It’s Okay To Be Afraid I am wondering, are […]

China’s “Singles Day” Is the Definition of Retail Exuberance

November 16, 2019 By David Burn

California Dreamin’ On Such A Winter’s Day

November 13, 2019 By David Burn

Does digital advertising work as intended? Several loud, convincing voices say no. This is what Econsultancy says: “The fact that some of the brightest, most qualified minds in the industry are admitting that digital advertising’s supposed efficacy is more myth than reality isn’t likely to dent advertisers’ faith in digital ads. But savvy advertisers might […]

There’s Value In Being Counted

November 12, 2019 By David Burn

Sadly, the question of who belongs in America hasn’t been settled yet. Presidents Tweet about it, talking heads flap their gums about it, and the Supreme Court rules on it. One thing that we do know for sure, Native peoples belong here. And the U.S. Census wants to make sure Native peoples are counted. According […]

Nature Needs Heroes and Your City Needs You

November 9, 2019 By David Burn

Why do urban artists wear Timberland? Could it be that Timberland works harder than most to appeal to young urban customers? In this new campaign from Timberland and their agency, Pereira O’Dell, the brand’s “Nature Needs Heroes” platform and commitment to a greener world is front and center. In an interesting twist, the campaign presents […]

November 8, 2019 By David Burn

Matthew McConaughey loves Texas, and man, his enthusiasm is highly infectious. “In Austin, nobody’s too good, but everybody’s good enough,” says the M.O.C. That’s the spirit of true Texans, and the M.O.C. understands the need to lead people who are new to the state to embrace “The Cowboy Code.” In his charming rambling Texan way, […]
