Today in free ads for Microsoft



Just a quick note from Midtown South, where this checkmark arrived early this morning at Astor Place...





The checkmark, plugging a new Office product, points (heh) out that "This is the intersection where oddball and original meet." Perhaps it should say met instead of meet?

    The "creative" work that went into writing and making this... the meetings to review the copy, the typeface, the color, etc...

    What a waste.

    Sell our space to Microsoft. Sell our space to Citi(bike). Sell sell sell.

    I was gonna have a t-shirt made with this inscription...however, they charged by the letter. I was a couple of bucks short, so I passed.
