Today (27th October) marks the 15th birthday of the banner ad. Read all about it here.
Scary to think how far this industry has come and how it has impacted on all our lives in a such a short period of time. I mean, in 1994, i'd just got my first job as a junior art director at an ad agency called Wallis Tomlinson and none of this could have possibly been imagined.
I didn't even get a computer until 1999 and even then, I had to share it with my copywriter (fellow Unsuitable and One Black Bear geezer, Rich Elwell), we got a laptop (blue clamshell mac, with the little handbag handle) so that we could pass it across the desk to each other. We took it in turns to take it home, not sure why as neither of us had a home internet connection until well into the new millennium.
How times change. To think, i've only had a laptop for ten years and I now watch more TV on it than the actual telly itself.
