Last week, I blogged the viral iPod Flea commercial which seemingly was only available on New York Times (that is until I got stuck into a few search engines)
Today I went there again...as I was following a link I was sent. What was just too ironic for words was the fact I had to see a 30-second spot before I got to view the spoof ad. In one moment, the two worlds of old marketing and new marketing hurtled into each other and both were left with bumps and bruises.
I'm not really sure what to say about this...I know advertising is supposed to endorse content. I also know that (good) advertising can be content - or at least perceived that way. That being said the whole experience was just a bit icky....it's kind of like seeing your parent's kissing (with tongue)
