I already wrote an article a while ago to say how much I was impress to see the SNCF (French National Railway Company) embracing social changes and understanding that travel is more than going from A point to a point B.

Just a brilliant example of a brand that get it right. It is about listening first and then answering in a meaningful and inspirational way. Well done to EA Sports. “As a response to a fan video from Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08, Tiger Woods and EA SPORTS demonstrate that the “glitch” Levinator25 thought he [...]

Following my post about the Ask campaign, I came across this video today via Francis Pisani blog. (See below) Like Epic 2014/15, this video is quite interesting about the real concern that Google Hegemony is developing.

I saw the poster below on the tube this weekend and this time I decided to check the URL. I didn’t really know what to expect from the site… Activism defending our universal right of information?
