Ecko billboard lets your mobile handle the graffitiing

Sure, we've seen a plethora of interactive billboards before, but Mark Ecko's (credit to Benjamin Busse) latest eye-catcher could seriously make you miss your ride. This brilliantly designed ad sports an LCD that can be painted up by your Bluetooth cellphone, as it allows passers to use their mobile as a spray can to decorate the screen as they please. No word on whether this thing accepts multiple connections or not, but a tagging duel would be mighty fine entertainment whilst waiting on the next bus.

But can you play DOOM on it?

Ugggh. I guess I'll fill in the other obligatory catchphrase "will it blend?" and "Where's the Beef?" for good measure. Seriously, does ANYONE still think that these catchphrases are funny?

Oh, I hope the /b/tards don't find this, for the good of society

It's all fun 'n' games until someone tags it for real

[Matt @ Aug 23rd 2007 5:46PM]

Hahaha, I really like this! A nice alternative to regular ol' vandalism.

Sounds like something fun to steal

Whenever the average joe has the ability to be creative in the public sphere, there will always be a good chance that someone will draw a penis.

I'm guessing we'll see a bunch of MySpace sites advertised on these boards.

What would be cool is if there was a billboard that you could send a picture message to via your cell phone and have it displayed. Someone should Build it STAT! now that i think about it, please dont. its to good of an idea to give away. lol

Ecko is the best! :)

Uhhh...DNRTFA. So what happens when someone writes expletives?

[Michael @ Aug 24th 2007 10:39AM]

Hate to break it to you folks, but that's a spec piece designed by an ad student. Design Factory International is an advertising school in Germany, as evidenced by the credits in the original post. Doesn't change the fact that it might be a cool idea, nor the fact that people would most certainly draw penises.
