    Sayeth Mumbrella:

[Agency] Cheil and the client, Oreo manufacturer Kraft, have been in a flap trying to distance themselves from the ad amid a hail storm of protest for showing an exposed nipple, sexualising breastfeeding, showing a baby holding junk food and, the mother of all crimes, excessive photoshopping.

On the charge of excessive photoshopping I find the defendant GUILTY AS CHARGED.

    "Unlike two decades ago, humans are now creating huge volumes of extraordinarily useful data as they self-annotate their relationships and yours, their photographs and yours, their thoughts and their thoughts about you … and more. With more data, comes better understanding and prediction . The convergence of data might reveal your “discreet” rendezvous or the fact you are no longer on speaking terms your best friend. No longer secret is your visit to the porn store and the subsequent change in your home’s late night energy profile, another telling story about who you are … again out of the bag, and little you can do about it. Pity … you thought that all of this information was secret."

    Play School inducted into the Logies Hall of Fame - 2006

    I think this might be my favourite moment of Australian television. The looks on everybody’s faces in the audience when Justine and Simon start singing the song make me sob hysterically every time. Also mad props to Georgie Parker for just standing there making Diddle wave the whole time.

    A beautiful moment.

    Note to self: Don’t watch it in the postgrad lounge ever again.

    Instagram: Instagram + Facebook

    instagram:

    When Mike and I started Instagram nearly two years ago, we set out to change and improve the way the world communicates and shares. We’ve had an amazing time watching Instagram grow into a vibrant community of people from all around the globe. Today, we couldn’t be happier to announce that…

    Bitterly disappointed. Already deleted my account (which was painless and easy - thanks Burbn Inc.)
