I have to agree with Poke London's view of Recruitment companies(scroll to the bottom)

http://www.pokelondon.com/working-with-poke/

My own view is that they are like the stuff that lives on the dead stuff at the bottom of stagnant ponds, although I am sure that there are some nice ones around...No, don't call to let me know please.

Who whould have thought that The Doors would end up in the new iPad ad?

Does this show how Apple are "down with the kids" or is it a cynical sop to the older generation. It seems a very odd choice of album art to include in the ad. I mean, a fantastic album (OK, I'm a fan) but why on earth use it in an iPad ad? Surely there are more appropriate covers that suit the audience better.


Who knows.
