|  #1 Posted on 12.5.05 2202.51 | Instant Rating: 8.44 | A story that came out in Wednesday's Wall Street Journal, reprinted here (post-gazette.com) and available as a PDF reprint here (iagr.net) talks about a new viewer metric being collected by IAG Research: the ability of viewers to recall advertisements as well as product placements that take place during the television they're watching.
Of note:

If I were to open my blinds and find some dude dressed like a king in my flower bed, I sure as hell wouldn't accept a breakfast sandwich from him. My first inclination would be to give him a little extra ventilation, if you know what I mean. | JustinShapiro

| #5 Posted on 13.5.05 0730.49 | Instant Rating: 6.13 | It's funny - we do so much worthless stuff on a daily basis. For example, I play Reward TV (http://rewardtv.com) Well, it kills 7 or 8 minutes a day and you answer questions about the TV you watched the night before - bust the real way to get the points is to know the ads. Yeah, I know all the ones on the list. The Movies, the upcoming shows, and they do product placements too.
Ok, yeah, you win prizes after awhile (I got Smallville season 3), but mostly, it's just more useless stuff you do on the internet.

| #7 Posted on 13.5.05 0904.43 | Instant Rating: 5.62 | I remember the woman in the Crest White Strips ad for two reasons:
1) She's truly lovely. And she can't be younger than 30.
2) She spends her day swimming, doing yoga, getting her haircut and at all times looking immaculate and chipper. Yet when she looks at her merely pale teeth in the mirror, she grimaces because she knows, as we know, that her perfeectly shaped yet not blinding molars are what keeps her from getting a man and being truly happy.

| #9 Posted on 20.5.05 0805.37 | Instant Rating: 5.75 | The Star Wars ads have me chuckling and remembering them more than any other.
1. Darth Vader's breathing vs. Creepy Burger King Mascot breathing. Another cool bit from the BK people and this was the first time I was rooting for Darth Vader.
2. Chewbacca doing voices for cell phones.
