Doritos
Im not sure if this is a concept or something that will be released soon, but I think this is exactly what is needed to “change” online advertising. This is a great example of something different (out of the microsite, banner, viral mold) The questions is are microsites and banners really that effective anymore?

Looks nice!
But does the site work for you? I get redirected to registar.com!
It is onlythegoodstuff.com, right?

Great campaign. One question: where is the site?
October 6th, 2008 at 12:41 pm
for people who deal with advertising, can you not see your money being lost? for instance, lets say that i pay $zzz to advertise on your site. i would not like it if all my ads are now effectively blocked by someone elses ads (cause, this is really what this is). so, my money is paying to advertise for doritos. not cool.
just playing devils advocate… i already use adblock plus in firefox.

As far as I know, this was a contender in the recent One Show doritos competition for students only.

very nice idea, but it indeed looks more like a pitch..

I am impressed. That is awesome. Go Doritos. Rock on. And at the same time an ad agency created software to attack advertisements. lol.

Ad Block Plus is something that I think they used. I dunno. This raises alot of questions about legality. if you see x content why are you allowed to block part of x content?

Time to boycott Doritoes. Any company so ethically challenged to offer such a campaign shouldn’t be trusted to provide safe food.

[...] A neat and unobtrusive approach to online marketing. And unlike banner ads, it actually makes the internet BETTER for the users. Found via ad goodness. [...]

Great find! Thanks for sharing. Do you know if this was ever published, or is really a student entry in the One show like JDF said?

Too bad. I wish it was real.

Cool ad! So as I read above, was this an ad competition between students?

Cool - until i realized i already had it installed on my computer. here is the site:

That is the best student ad I have ever seen. I think that so surpasses the silly apple student ad. this one is great conceptually and execution wise. Great soundtrack too addicting like doritos

We developed a plugin that replaces all the ads on the internet with art. Unlike the Doritos plugin, our plugin is completely non-commercial, and it actually exists. Get it at http://add-art.org or soon from onlytheybetterstuff.com (DNS is propagating)

hmm.. interesting.
i’m just trying to figure out how this wold actually work in the real world. it’s great as a concept but I can’t seem to get past the legality of blocking out other peoples ads…
great student ad. but how would it work in the real world… would it?

Can’t really see any long term benefits here really. A Dorittas coloured border isn’t enough to keep the product “top of mind”, and all other advertisers are out too…

In this video, the ‘after’ screen shot is just as cluttered as the ‘before’. That’s not “good stuff”. I’d rather have whitespace like what adblock plus provides.

Firefox had this plug-in created last year. It replaced the ads with random art pieces.
The concept is strong and the writing did a nice job of bring the two ideas together, but this looks more like student work or a pitch.
