Ads of the World
Few screenshotthings are so amusing and simultaneously baffling as other countries' advertising. Is that because commercials hew so closely to cultural whims? Because humor is the first thing lost in translation? Because what is seductive to one society crosses the line in another? Whatever the reason, every time we dip into this treasure trove of slick global ads, we're guaranteed an experience marked by intelligence, style, and a big dollop of "huh?" Browse by media (print, TV, online, "ambient,"), region (Africa, Europe, or Asia), or industry. Or just click back from the front page, taking what comes willy-nilly (our favorite way). Of the subsections, we particularly like the public interest efforts. The issues we found there, and the fight to combat them, transcend any cultural differences. (in Marketing & Advertising)
