Nokia Navigation Goes Social With World’s Largest Sign

So if you’re a brand that makes navigation products but no one thinks of you when it comes to navigation, what do you do? You erect the world’s largest signpost and make it social. To hype it’s navigation products and to “make navigation into something social,” they built a huge sign next to London’s Tower Bridge. People could text their favorite destinations all over the globe and a few minutes later, the sign would mention the location and point to the location.

The whole thing was streamed live to Nokia’s site and a data base of everyone’s location was built for anyone to peruse. Farfar Stockholm did the work.
