I'm with Diesel.

We're liking this new campaign by Diesel, which essentially asks you to live your life by being stupid. That's how you get the real rewards.

After all, without a little stupid bravery by the Vikings, we would have never founded this lovely continent. We're still bitter about that one, Columbus.

Remember the 900s?

OK, so we post a lot about dogs. We're sorry. But it's possible we just found the reason. The Norwegian Buhund, a new breed at this year's Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, was bred by Vikings way back in the 10th century. That little guy would look perfect with a sword and shield. See more here.

Sharpie stops something sharp.

We use a lot of Sharpies in advertising. They allow us to quickly scribble ideas on the nearest object, like a napkin or tissue or coworker's face.

They also allow our copywriters to fake some level of illustrating talent. Just kidding. We don't waste precious Sharpies on copywriters.

And it turns out there's a lot more uses for Sharpies, like preventing a trip to the... hospital? Read about it on Sharpie's blog.

The new version allows for building and editing base colors in both CMYK as well as the previous RGB color system. What more could a creative warrior ask for?

The World's Biggest Signpost from adghost

Here's a wonderful idea from Nokia that still might not put a dent in the iPhone's dominance. But as far as we know, there's no app for controlling a crane-powered sign over London.

Watch what you tweet.

According to a recent study, 70% of employees in Human Resources have turned down an applicant based on his or her online presence.
