Creative for good

Creative for good
[Travis Bussiahn] "How do you give someone purpose?" he asked me, his gaze direct as he slurped down the last bit of his freezo. The wintery afternoon sun streamed through the large glass windows behind me and glinted in his eyes as he asked. This was a professional moment both compelling and onerous all at once.

It's good to talk

Peter Townshend[Peter Townshend] In the mid to late 90s, British Telecom (BT) in the UK ran a successful advertising campaign where the payoff line, "It's good to talk", was delivered by a friendly, charismatic and remarkably easy to mimic Bob Hoskins. This has stayed in my mind not because of Hoskins's affability, but because the simple message is so powerful: it really is good to talk.
