10/9: Wheel ad



Oh no.

From the fine ZZZ Online. There was a time, I recall beause I am older, when advertising did not cover every single inch of space, everywhere. When they didn't think of putting ads on the floors, or on shopping carts, or in fortune cookies, or on the sides of rockets, or...

Or on the moving wheels and tires of race cars. Because you couldn't possibly do that, because most of the time the car is moving and you can't see the ad.

Until now, when someone has worked out how to use little LEDs and software to put an image there that remains stable even when the car is moving.

[Prediction: remember this "age of advertising" now, because in another few years, there will come a new time, when the attitude of the public changes and this degree of ad proliferation will no longer be tolerated.]
