Oh, the interwebs, with their crazy fly-by-night trends! Here’s the latest mindlessly amusing bit of web2.0 puffery: Brand Tags.
The concept is devilishly simple: each time you visit the site, a different brand logo is presented to you. You then tag it with a single word or phrase in a sort of word association type way. Then you get to see the cloud of everybody else’s tags for that brand. Twitter’s tag cloud is particularly gratifying, consisting as it does mostly of the word ‘useless’ writ in 124 point font.
Ryan Macmillan’s not an option on there, yet, but how would we get tagged if we were?
