One thing we didn't know in 1996 is that it's very, very difficult, if not impossible, to sustain a culture with online advertising.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's almost as if creativity is dead. The visual power of advertising was everywhere - now it's basically gone.
If you look at the Internet, it's been hard for a lot of the traditional media companies to launch viable brands.
History will see advertising as one of the real evil things of our time. It is stimulating people constantly to want things, want this, want that.
A lot of advertising has gotten worse. I think it's kind of lost its nerve, to be honest with you. I feel like the advertising of the '60s, they were nervier. You know why? Because there was less at stake.
I grew up in a country where advertising doesn't exist.
We were the first people to do advertising on the Web. I actually saw in 1993 that the ad could be the content, the destination.
Advertising is the edge of what people know how to do and of human experience and it explains the latest ways progress has changed us to ourselves.
Advertising at its worst will be killed by the Internet. And rightly so.
The Internet is king. Newspapers are dead or dying. Magazines are shrinking every day. Ad budgets are being cut. The bottom line is now the only line in advertising.
The future of advertising is the Internet.
