Nick, a few months ago I saw something liek what you are talking about on college kids but they had a TV around their neck..I think it was or a news channel. Was quite catchy.

Well its much better than looking at tattered brown gunny sacks. So what if its another onslaught of advertising, at least its not an eyesore. I do hope that they get much better in the presentation of the design on the prints. All the billboards in bombay look the same, a model, a logo and a product..come on people, do something exciting.

Nick, good to hear about human billboards in Atlanta, I wonder why in front on the tax offices, though?

Akshay, yes, probably we could do an entire feature on those no parking shots.

not to mention all the free adverstising some guys are getting by making those no parking infront of the gate signs. HT is one the beneficiary.

Good post – neat look at urban advertising.

However, even here in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia – we have lots of human billboards! I see people holding large and small signs near Mexican restaurants, tax offices and jewelry stores.
