Link Lust: Albert Einstein was an ad man, the ugly olympic logos and Cannes Lions everywhere.

Cannes Lions broke records this year, it received 34,301 entries and approx 22,304 of those are ghost ads. It'll be a minefield out there this year, judges. Good luck. Kevin Roddy dubs Albert Einstein the best advertising man that ever was and he's got all the cool quotes to back it up.

Albert Einstein once said, "Creativity is intelligence having fun." Now I don't know about you, but that's one of the best descriptions of advertising that I've ever heard -- and he wasn't even describing advertising.

 

Go feast your eyes on the good read at CreativeBloq "The good, the bad, and the ugly: typography in Olympics logo design" it's quite interesting, and yes, London 2012 is in there.
