The City of Boston was seriously disrupted today by ads that looked like bombs. Reuters has the story of blinking devices placed on bridges throughout the city as a marketing ploy for the popular cartoon, Aqua Teen Hunger Force. From the story:
The billboards, encased in dark plastic, consisted of blinking lights wired to an electronic circuit board to project an animated cartoon image in an outdoor promotion for a show on Turner's [ala Turner Networks] Cartoon Network called "Aqua Teen Hunger Force."
NPH has been meaning to write something about outdoor advertising for some time now, so here ya go.
