SMS Kills!
Issmat A. | November 27, 2007A great new ad from the Dubai office of DDB. Click on image to enlarge.
Notice the attention to detail. The models were chosen to reflect the cultural diversity of the UAE and, ofcourse, the ever present crane in the skyline (it is estimated that 15 to 25 percent of the world’s cranes are currently operating in Dubai, the world’s fastest growing city).
As the Nova Scotia government considers banning cell phone use and smoking while driving with children, should SMSing receive individual attention or should any upcoming creative address the general use of cell phones while driving without going into specifics?

lheylah | December 8, 2007Well I used to work in Dubai Media City & I loved the whole atmosphere working there. I wish they’d build now taller office buildings. They collaborate with Dubai Internet City and I know that they setup concerts and public corporate events too. It’s all nicely done. After all, it is Dubai! We can only expect more, right?
