Pick up a Penguin

December 15th, 2006

Russell Davies writes about Penguin being at the forefront of innovative branding.

You could make a convincing case that Penguin are the smartest branding/product business around at the moment. (And that they’re have had the longest history of doing so, they’ve been innovating since 1935)

I have listened to quite a few of Penguins Podcasts, and have to admit they are pretty good, sound wise and editorially. It’s great to see a brand take on board new broadcasting stuff like podcasting, and use it in an interesting and engaging way.

Some of our favorites are on the list including the Media Podcast from Guardian Unlimited.
