Melons of All Kinds Sell Skyy Melon Vodka

Skyy Vodka has resorted to using melons - all kinds - to promote its new Skyy Melon Vodka. At least for the male demo, this is a brilliant attempt at creating subliminal product attraction by associating the product with one of man's most absurd but inmate fixations - the female breast. It's an old and tired concept but then again, man never tires of that particular female body part so what the hell - might as well capitalize on it.

Yikes! There's More Oddvertising - 'Birdvertising'

Adrants reader Alex points out yet another not-so-new alternative form of advertising. It's called Bird Typing but it should be called Birdvertising. Roman Kingsley, the man behind Bird Typing, has trained birds to form letters while flying yielding a unique form of sky writing. It's not easy though. Kingsley's been doing it since 2002, spent three months training a bunch of birds and is now in the process of getting them to chirp in unison. Apparently Volvo has hired Kingsley to fly the Volvo logo. If anyone gets a picture of that, we need to see it!
