U wish u clicked.











It’s dumb and cheap looking and simple and you click the animated gif and end up in the Land of all things Philly. Yeah, display-text-banner ad white noise gets ignored. I read that email too. But just maybe if you make things a little bit offbeat, a little mysterious instead of having a bigass CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO, people might just ... click there for more info.

Hey, thanks for the post. I like to think simplicity can still evoke mystery...but what do you expect from an old school Nancy Drew fan? ;)

I shoulda clarified that dumb meant it had funky, non-professional look, even though it was obviously done by a design firm after seeing another ad from the series.
