		<description><![CDATA[The CSX freight map web ad has been around for a while now. The animation starts in Baltimore and draws your eye along the freight line all the way up the eastern seaboard to Boston. It’s hard not to watch where it’s taking you. The approach is a compelling way to illustrate just how efficient [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The reflection concept in this ad is kind of interesting, but it leaves you scratching your head when you think about why you would want a nice Mercedes looking like it washed up on the beach without its tires.&#160; If it&#8217;s either Bridgestone or nothing, don&#8217;t show a car with nothing.]]></description>
