So we’re trying something new here at Denuology. When something noteworthy, controversial, or just plain interesting pops up in the world -we’ll try to give you our opinions on the matter in 140 characters or less. 140 characters seem to work as the limit for SMSs and Tweets – so we figured we’d give it a try as well.

benny’s top 5 muppets

Posted by Benny Torres | January 15, 2009

And we’re back with the “Top 5,” wherein an employee asks another employee their Top 5 “blanks” and they answer for all to judge. Last time Durbin asked Dan a very specific music-related Top 5. Dan was a bit less specific with my Top 5 – but arguably better than Durbin (although admittedly it’s not too hard to top Durbin). With that little bit of truth – I present to you – my top 5 Muppets.

denuo’s 2009 ces trends

Curated by: Saneel Radia

So earlier this month, part of the Denuo crew went out to Vegas for CES 2009. There was certainly a lot to take in. From 3D television and cinema (available in abundance, but mostly gimmicky execution) to the glut of TV screens (getting thinner and greener, but not at the same time), CES was a tech geek’s dream. From a marketer’s perspective however, there were specific trends that will inevitably impact what we do in the near future. The purpose of this post is to call out a few of those major initiatives.

ea’s skate 2 integrates and creates skate stuff

Posted by Benny Torres | January 13, 2009

skate2Skate 2 releases later this month – and some pretty smart product integrations are starting to become apparent. First thing that caught my eye was these fantastic looking Etnies RMV “Skate 2″ shoes. Although I’m not a huge skater (although I do miss longboarding) I am a huge shoe guy. I think these things manage to represent the Skate franchise well without looking garish or over the top. I’d certainly buy them – and I think my fellow bright-shoe fanatics are down the halls of Denuo would agree. But it doesn’t stop at skate shoes with Skate 2…

the alternative obama logos

Posted by Benny Torres | December 22, 2008

obama-08-logoSome alternative Obama logos have popped up – along with an interview outlining the history and strategy behind the now famous “O.” It’s interesting to noteĀ  first “millennial” president (or so people say) is also the one who was more throughly and deliberately “branded.” There was some real thought and thinking behind the logo and what it represented – which is more than can be said for most campaign logos. Personally, I love the logo that was eventually picked but seeing the strategy and meaning behind it makes it even cooler.
