Saw something quite interesting on my way to the office today. The huge billboard next to Madison Square Garden was being changed and as you can see on the picture its a rather thin foil and they have some kind of special equipment to change it.

although in my opinion the blank aluminium surface looks much more stylish, maybe there should be some kind of transparent one, just with some letters on it or a (masked) image of a person.

Anyhow, when I arrived at the office, had a package at my desk from the viennese FCBi office where I had been Creative Head before. A special farewell present, a huge Manner-Box with farewell wishes of all my former collegues (and a box of chocolate-bananas, not on the picture). Was really affected, will get a special place at my desk! Thanks guys!

Today I have been assigned my first really official job and it’s a nice one for Motorola (and no, its no banner :) ), for a new cellphone showed at the CES, you gonna see it in january ;)

Later this day my picture was taken for my ID card to enter the building any time and without front desk fight (as you may remember my “arrival” here. well, I do for sure ;) ).

Had to go down to the lowest floor, where the sun never shines and where its always cold, to take this kind of picture nobody is ever satisfied with. like a dante’s inferno for IDs ;).

but at least I am now an official member of the “family”!

most funny thing today: the word “boink”
