Venice Festival of Media 2008: Snap the snapper

Venice Festival of Media 2008

Well, just got back from the Venice Festival of Media 2008, where the senior people in the media and marketing world came to discuss debate and make Venitian Water Taxi drivers rich...

Met a lot of my CSquared friends on the plane out.

Pip Brooking, Editor of Media & Marketing, Nick Watt of citizensound and Jo Bowman from CSquared on the way to the Lido

For some reason, Richard Reeves of CSquared became a little shy of the camera

Keep off the Grass...

Further to my post from Prague, i was reminded of a recent trip to Berlin.

I had a stroll through a park near the Brandenburg Gate and what did I find?

People ignoring the paths laid out for them...

What is going on?

People should respect the paths...shouldn't they?

So here I am in Prague gazing out the window of a Taxi, when I see this.

Instead of walking along the path and following it round, people have decided to walk across the grass and find a short-cut...

Why don't people respect the pathways?

Well, over the last few months, this has been bugging me. Wherever I travel I see people have walked across the grass. Not very eco-friendly for a start is it? Or respectful of the pathways as laid down by town planners and architects.

This has helped shaped my thinking on marketing issues with my clients over the last few months. I will share more on this in future posts...
