Just a few minutes ago I saw this ad on television for ‘de gouden gids‘ (yellow pages) that is very similar to the viral we did with AKQA London a couple of months ago for the Communication Evolved campaign. I don’t know who the agency is of ‘de gouden gids’ but take a look and let me know what you think.

Windows Live Messenger ‘Pigeon’ ad:
Technorati tags: pigeon, viral, akqa, yellow pages, gouden gids, similar
'Cross The Breeze 
I also saw this ad yesterday and had exactly the same deja vu feeling :)
Shame on the agency
Agency is Bananas.
By the way, does anybody knows who made the latest belgian vodafone ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arhi54Wt7F0
Is it VVL?
No, it’s Duval Guillaume Antwerp. They just lost the account and Bananas is the new agency
Latest Vodafone commercial is done by LG&F. For the details, check out coolzOr (http://blog.coolz0r.com/2007/04/02/nerd-alert/)
And the Gouden Gids commercial, well, I don’t think it’s Duval Antwerp any longer and Bananas is a brand activation agency… who nows the correct answer?
You’re right for LG&F (I just checked on mediavillage.be). I couldn’t find the gouden gids commercials but they have Duval-Guillaume Antwerpen as agency
Indeed, since mid January 2007, the Promedia agency is Bananas.
I never saw the Microsoft Pigeon Commercial of Microsoft, but have you seen the latest campaign of Toerisme Vlaanderen which is a copy of the Gouden Gids creative platform?
