That’s really great…
…until someone comes along and tags it with a real can because they’re sick of corporate graffiti…

I love the idea, but I doubt it’ll really work. Most people just walk past ads. More importantly, however: Bluetooth is a pain to set up. Sounds like you’re asking a bit too much of the casual passer-by.
I wish they’d just bolt a classic joystick to the sign, much quicker access and easier to handle.

Cool idea, but I agree with the above post bluetooth can be a pain in the a## sometimes. I think a working touch pad with a stick similar to those used with pda’s or at the dmv would work best. but I do like the concept.

Great idea but….What happens to the work of ‘art’ once your finished? is it stored anywhere or just erased by the next user.
Wouldn’t this then become a potential hot spot for bluetooth phone hackers?
Last but not least, what about profanities being written or created on this board?

Maad idea!
Bluetooth is a no brainer really, and everybody has it.
We need more interactivity like this, because it is true, people are oblivious to traditional advertising these days.
