Can you guess who drew who?

A while back, my boss Lee posted a blog asking for some doodles and magnets to decorate our company’s brand new white fridge. A few days later, Lee’s friend responded to the posting by mailing one of his drawings. I suddenly got this fun idea that we, the Counterintuity staff, should draw each other for the fridge. So we picked…

Being really really prepared

You have to give the City of Santa Monica credit for doing their utmost to protect their resident businesses. Last week’s emergency preparedness seminar covered every likely eventuality — right up to zombie attacks. (See bullet points.)

What’s in a name?

This morning, I asked the concierge at my hotel where the nearest ATM was.  Lucky for me, it was right down the street.  Imagine my surprise when I arrived.  Is Rab-o-bank inviting trouble, or just ignorant of multi-lingual translations of their name? We often help clients brainstorm names and branding for their startups.  I guarantee this is not one we would have…

Want to control which 3rd party applications post these silly stories on your…

New but not better

Want increased productivity? Then maybe the idea of skittering around the office all day is for you. Note that there’s also a two-seater version so that a colleague can appear equally foolish.

Has Social Networking Gone to the Dogs?

It was only a matter of time.  In this dog-eat dog world, there’s now a social networking site called Dogster for people who think their dogs are the cats meow. The twist? The profiles are “written by” the pups, who befriend other “pup pals” nationwide.  Since many dog owners treat their pets like people, pooch profiles shouldn’t be shocking. On Dogster, owners create pages for man’s…

Writing on walls

We write on the walls all the time (albeit on jumbo Post-It pads). It’s a great way to freeflow ideas — for designs, for campaigns, for new initiatives. Because those 3′ x 2′ Post-It pads are portable, we’ve used them on client engagements both local and out of state. But for projects in the office, I’m thinking maybe all we…
