things that inspire and things that are dire: Which are your favourites?

Hello

hello – come in and make yourself at home

The Woodies have a blog. It’s a kind of collective. Not sure we’re about to start a revolution baby, but we might kindle a small debate or two and perhaps raise a smile. Anyway, rather than just blogging corporate Woodreed by fielding our top Woodie (as so many other companies seem to do in a thinly veiled attempt at impressing with their profundity), we wanted all our individual voices to be heard. An agency’s most valuable assets are its people after all. Everyone’s got something to say here and with us everyone’s ideas and opinions matter.

Each week someone different will be blogging. It's mostly about stuff that rocks our world as well as the flipside – the things that just don't cut it with us. We'll blog about inside and outside – inside this glorious industry where we work and outside in the real world.
It's a bit of an experiment, so go with us on this one.

Hope you enjoy.

Which are your favourites?

The Mad Men graffiti keeps on coming and the debate about 9/11 runs and runs.... what's your view? On the one hand we've got graffiti artists cleverly taking the image and adding whales, stunt bikers and Superman. Even the Occupy movement has got in on the act.
While on the other, we've an online spat amongst the blogging community as to whether the campaign is offensive and a desecration of the memory of 9/11 and the 'falling man' or jumpers from the Twin Towers.
Is the similarity intentional? Anyone got any more examples to post? What would Banksy do with it I wonder?
