Yes, the Vodafone Live Music work was pretty similar to the T-Mobile Street Gigs activity, but it moved it on by adding more interactivity and integration through WAP and MMS. The WAP work was particularly good. Then again, I was involved in it. But it seemed in '06 that if you were an operator, you had to be involved in live music in some form or another. Interesting site, by the way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lowdown M. Do you have any more information about the wap element of the campaign? I'm sure my readers would love to know more about it. And I, for one, am interested to understand it better.
