Red Bull’s Danny MacAskill Performs Insane Bike Manuevers #Imaginate

Steven Jacobs — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 16:48:08 +0000

I’ve noticed as of lately, I’ve been posting more of what interests me rather than business type stuff. While I’m constantly reading the news and reading through my 200+ RSS feeds, I don’t feel it’s typically necessary to post about what everyone else is already talking about. Today I came across Red Bull’s newest marketing/sports video from Danny MacaSkill who has just begun his #Imaginate series.

Last week I had the opportunity to go check out the Newport Beach Wedge. I live relatively close to the Wedge, so once I heard that the waves were going off, it didn’t take long until I hopped on my bike to go check out the waves. If you’ve never visited the Wedge before, it is definitely a sight worth checking out.

Here is an incredible video that the Vimeo user Brecht Vanthof has put together of the Wedge in June of 2013. Watch this incredible footage below!

Why Are You Killing Off Google Reader, Google

Steven Jacobs — Thu, 14 Mar 2013 15:53:53 +0000

If I were to put my top 4 used websites and apps in order it’d be Gmail, Google Reader, Google Analytics and Facebook. Unfortunately it seems that Google as part of their Spring Cleaning will be removing 1/4 of my online life. Granted I may be a bit biased since I am in the media/blogging business, but as you can tell by Twitter’s top trends #savegooglereader, this change is not being taken lightly.

Reserva Ad Takes Real Footage of Robbery for New Commercial

Steven Jacobs — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 15:53:28 +0000

Reserva, a Brazilian men’s fashion store, has taken a bad situation and turned it into a very creative idea for their new commercial and ad campaign. The Brazilian menswear entrepreneur, Rony Meisler, decided to create an ad for his new upcoming sale with real security camera footage of one of his stores actually getting broken into in real life. Here the commercial shows footage of Rony’s Sao Paulo store getting the window smashed into and thiefs grabbing thousands of dollars of merchandise. Reserva’s motto for this sale is “There’s no need to break the store window. Just go in! Reserva sale: Up to 40% off.” This commercial struck me since Reserva commented and said that since they stole their goods, they had decided to steal the robbers’ image.
