“The best people are terrified every day that they’re going to be fired, and the mediocre ones are always shocked when they are. And I think that’s because the great ones have an inner bar that’s impossible to reach that drives you to do something that stands out.”

Here’s a heartwarming post. The A.C.Camargo Cancer Center in São Paulo, is a client of the Brazilian office of worldwide ad agency JWT. JWT teamed up with Warner brothers and designed Justice League intravenous covers for sick kids battling cancer. But it didn’t stop there, they went on to design comic books and the whole Children’s ward of the hospital in a Justice League Theme.
Bravo.

I’ve read a lot of negative posts towards tumblr and it’s new advertising. I have a few thoughts on the matter and would like to share but before going any further, I do work in advertising.
Bottom line is tumblr is a business, and businesses need to make money in order to operate.
Tumblr like most social media platforms is free to use. As tumblr grows so do the costs of operating and upgrading the platform. Advertising is the most obvious choice to raise these extra costs and also is the easiest way to turn a profit. Youtube, Facebook and Twitter have all come to these terms. In this day and age anything that is free to use will often have advertising, if you don’t want advertising the other option is a subscription based service, something like Netflix. How many people would rather pay a subscription base fee every month to avoid advertising?
I think I’ll stick to a few sponsor radar posts/posts on my dash. Compared to other advertising tumblr isn’t that bad, all you need to do is keep scrolling. People always seem to make a big deal and freak out over things like this forgetting that they pay nothing for the service.
I’ll turn it back to you guys, what are your thoughts on the matter? do you agree/disagree?
