Vending Language Education

nobody@vox.com(Halcyonandoff) — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 22:09:30 -0700

I've noticed, as I travel, the emergence of rather large vending machines devoted to things that you wouldn't expect to find in vending machines. Usually, these are high-ticket items like iPods and laptop batteries.

Here in Las Vegas, I've found one of the machines devoted ENTIRELY to Rosetta Stone language learning materials.

Now, I know that Vegas is an international Hub, but this seems like nonsense. Are that many people purchasing Rosetta Stone? Are they doing it minutes before traveling to a foreign destination?

On the other hand, from a marketing and visibility standpoint, it's clearly effective. So I'll just assume that the end goal was just that.

And here I am, turning that into a self-fulfilling declaration!

Don't let the cupcakes fool you!

Fighting soul-less sub-urban sprawl requires much energy, hence the gigantic cupcakes.

You wouldn't guess that ECOS is trying to curb massive sprawl just by looking at their massive cupcakes!

McMartin Realty rolled out the big guns for March's Second Saturday art-walk in Sacramento. The giant floodlights illuminated the parking, filled with artists, musicians, smart urban growth proponents, and merry-makers.

There was a constant flow of people through the parking lot, and into the building to see the vibrant and varied works of featured artist Steve Memering.
