#MemoryMonday part 1 of 2. This week we are bringing you two blasts from the TCC archive because we can, and because we want to. The first post is way back from March 17th 2010 and was all about nicking peoples ideas. We came across a neat blog that invited users to use the ideas posted on the blog. Simple, effective and with some nice illustrations. Even quite a few months on this blog still packs a punch. Hit the image to take a look in the past.
A fantastic, cheeky but ultimately rewarding way of gaining followers on Facebook…now you might think a brand as large as John Lewis might not need to offer any incentives to get followers on Facebook but let us tell you, it ain’t easy, even for some of the worlds biggest fans! Getting people on Facebook to want to listen to your ramblings as a brand is difficult, so some brands offer incentives-others offer incentives via fun games!
Need some inspiration? This neat video gives you some tips to refresh your ideas and mind.

Ogilvy Ideas Shop - A pop-up shop for ideas brought to you by the advertising giant that is Ogilvy. They are opening up their doors, well the doors to this little shop in Brixton, for three days in February to offer free ideas to local companies and charities etc to give a little something back to the community. Clever idea!
The most perfect girl in the world? Take a bunch of pretty celebrity women…you know, the usual types, Megan Fox, Kiera Knightly etc and merge all their faces in a family tree of sorts into what some might call the most perfect girl in the world…ahhh photoshop strikes again. The end result is okay in my opinion, you might disagree. I would like to argue that there are prettier, more perfect girls out there than the celebrities they started with. A clever idea and very interesting experiment to say the least though.
