Editor's Notes

  1. Creating Tomorrow’s Alcoholics, Today The copy for the Cola ad reads: “Laboratory tests over the last few years have proven that babies who start drinking soda during that early formative period have a much higher chance of gaining acceptance and ‘fitting’ in awkward pre-teen and teen years.”   I’ve got a hunch it also contributes to diabetes and child obesity. - See more at: http://brandslide.ca/creating-tomorrows-alcoholics-today/#sthash.7HJWCdhf.dpuf The first banner ad was made by Modem Media, a digital agency where McCambley worked, that was later acquired and folded into Digitas. Of those who saw the ad, 44 percent clicked, McCambley remembers. Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/behold-the-first-banner-ad-ever--from-1994-2013-2#ixzz3KmDg6KRt
