I’ve always been a huge fan of provocative advertising. Those old Pepsi v/s Coke ads never got old, so did the billboard feud between Audi and BMW!
This time around, the campaign is more “Social”. The all-famous SKYPE is taking shots at the most prominent social networking websites of our time (Facebook & Twitter), deeming them un-human and reclusive, and positioning their video calling service as more “human” and in touch with reality.

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 13,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 5 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

So, and without further ado, here are the Christmas puppies unwrapping presents:
Have a pleasant and happy holiday season everyone!

The hilarious reply that spared no room for mercy ignited my curiosity and pushed me to scan through Haifa’s twitter account in hopes of finding more replies to the haters who keep hating on twitter. Continue reading
