Animated Ads in a Subway Near You
prostoalex writes "A company called Sub Media claims a successful launch of motion-picture ads in New York subway. The ad agency, created by a PhD in Astrophysics, prints ads on Kodak transparencies, so that when the train speeds up, the resulting images create a full-blown motion picture. The first ever ad of this was run for Target in NY, and there is another one planned for Discovery Channel."
The guys over at this site decided to brute force scan me after a few crude subject line posts. Seriously, open source zealots will disregard the law and your privacy when it suits them. Please don't tell me that my ISP has a clause about annoyances, they also have a clause about hacker activities like port scanning. Yes, the site is powered by SlashCode, so there's no doubt they are all OSS deviants.
Watch the name calling ...

You could've hired me.
Come on! The Hong Kong subway system is to die for. Fast, clean, convenient. There are stations everywhere, and they place you within walking distance of any destination (except maybe in the New Territories).
