Adify Media: The Ad Network You Never Dared to Dream You’d Find.



adify-media-video.jpg

Youthfully charming Adify Media launched two promotional vids to illustrate that extra-special intra-personal something you’ll get when your remnant ad inventory is placed in its warm, able hands.

The creative is formatted like eHarmony testimonials. Adify’s merits are described in a leisurely, quasi-intimate way as both client and account strategist finish each other’s sentences, make silly gestures, touch inappropriately and give each other weird sidelong looks when one coolly mentions having tried other algorithms before.

It’s all just creepy enough to pass. Our only complaint is that everybody’s already done the service-as-soulmate, let’s-all-laugh-at-eHarmony thing, so it’s got a mildly uncomfortable two-years-tardy feel.

That’s cool though. No idea’s original, yeah?

Psychology says the person who is kind to everyone and close to no one isn’t always lacking in the capacity for intimacy — they’re managing their exposure to it, and management and intimacy are fundamentally incompatible, which is why the closeness they’re managing against never quite arrives

Women who have developed something genuinely beautiful in their character by the time they reach their 60s and 70s aren’t the ones who were always kind — they’re the ones who went through enough to become bitter and chose something else instead, who were let down enough times to close off and decided to remain open anyway

People who have quietly accumulated real financial security over a lifetime don’t talk about money the way people who are trying to signal wealth do — they’re unhurried, they never seem to be calculating, they replace things when they wear out rather than when they impress, and there’s a specific quality of ease in how they move through the world that has nothing to do with spending and everything to do with never once having to wonder whether they can

I’m 65 and I spent my entire adult life being the most competent person in every room I entered and it took a therapist asking me one very quiet question at 63 to help me understand that the competence wasn’t confidence — it was the strategy of a child who learned that being needed was the closest available substitute for being loved

I grew up in the 1960s when a handshake still meant something and your word was a contract — and I’m watching a world where nobody believes anything anyone says anymore and wondering if we lost something irreplaceable when we decided trust was naive
