Smarter Cities project

Ogilvy & Mather France created some useful outdoor ads to promote IBM’s “People For Smarter Cities Project.”

Check out the video below to see the full project: 

Amazing!

Interesting stuff. Perhaps this is a model that needs exporting.

I’m not heading anywhere exotic this Easter - just up to Yorkshire - but the transport is pretty cool! I’m travelling on the East Coast Skyfall train, which for a Bond fan makes it a pretty awesome start to the long weekend.

Now, where’s Daniel Craig with the tea trolley?

(Gosh… I hope there isn’t too much of a Q in the buffet car…)

(For the record, the train was a little late departing from King’s Cross, but only by 007 minutes…)

(I ‘M’ going to stop now…)

We enter a little coffeehouse with a friend of mine and give our order. While we’re aproaching our table two people come in and they go to the counter:
‘Five coffees, please. Two of them for us and three suspended’ They pay for their order, take the two and leave.

I ask my friend: “What are those ‘suspended’ coffees?”
My friend: “Wait for it and you will see.”

Some more people enter. Two girls ask for one coffee each, pay and go. The next order was for seven coffees and it was made by three lawyers - three for them and four ‘suspended’. While I still wonder what’s the deal with those ‘suspended’ coffees I enjoy the sunny weather and the beautiful view towards the square infront of the café. Suddenly a man dressed in shabby clothes who looks like a beggar comes in throught the door and kindly asks
‘Do you have a suspended coffee ?’

It’s simple - people pay in advance for a coffee meant for someone who can not afford a warm bevarage. The tradition with the suspended coffees started in Naples, but it has spread all over the world and in some places you can order not only a suspended coffee, but also a sandwitch or a whole meal.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have such cafés or even grocery stores in every town where the less fortunate will find hope and support ? If you own a business why don’t you offer it to your clients… I am sure many of them will like it.

Oh my. This is so good.

Has anyone encountered this? What a great idea!

Really excited to be meeting a potential dress maker tomorrow night! (^_^)

We’re tying the knot in September (in England) and we’re looking for a fabulous wedding photographer who won’t break the bank - ideally, someone who can take some wonderful formal, old-fashioned shots like those from your grandparents’ wedding… Know anyone? We’d love to hear some recommendations!

Anyone know any awesome wedding photographers for a style blogger who’s marrying an amazing architect?

Fantastic lighting in the restaurant at Mama Shelter. What a great idea!

We found the most amazing beer shop on the Rue de Charonne. The guys who run it are brilliant characters, and the selection of beers is world class! Worth a visit if you’re in Paris…
