Top Klog of the Week- 4/10

Aerial advertising is nothing new, but using bubbles to create logos in the sky certainly is. Flogos, which can best be described as foamy clouds that have been formed into logos/letters/graphics, have used a technology originally created for NASA to take aerial advertising to a new level.

Flogos can last for about 30 minutes and travel as high as 20,000 feet. They can also be tinted, so image appears in a solid color, rather than just the standard white foam.

Not all logos are good candidates to become a Flogo, depending on the extent of curves the image has. But, Nike, Nintendo, and McDonald's have all utilized the technology thus far.

Interested? Well, the company that developed the Flogo has offices around the world, but they currently receive about 28,000 inquiries a week. So, be prepare to get in line for this unique medium.

For a look at this technology, as used by Nintendo- click here.

What a great idea! Lots of buzz for the buck.

I just hope the concept does not get shot down as someone somewhere will determine that soap is bad for something and therefore not really environmentally friendly.
