Death of an Idea

Hey all you marketers, advertisers, designers, etc.! Have you ever put hours of work into what you believe is the BEST and COOLEST campaign or advertisement ever....only to have it shot down by your client for one (silly) reason or another? I know I have....and it sucks. All that hard work and you're left with nothing more than a killed idea and 30 hours of unbillable time.

But soon, all will not be lost. Introducing a cool new project I read about through Adrants. Here is the gist:

Beginning February 24, you are encouraged to submit your killed ideas to killedideas.com for potential inclusion in Killed Ideas Volume 1, a book published by Blurb and edited by Adrants Editor Steve Hall. Fifty of the best killed ideas will be selected for the book which will be published in May.

The coolest and most quirky ideas will also be featured on the KilledIdeas website. And for all you Tweeting freaks out there, there is (of course) a Twitter feed. Follow @killedideas.

But you best hurry up and submit your work soon. You only have about a month before entries close.
