BAR hughtrain.jpg
Seth Godin’s ChangeThis.com just published a PDF version of “The Hughtrain”.

[The ChangeThis blurb:] “You’ve read the Cluetrain, now Hugh MacLeod brings you The Hughtrain. A manifesto on brands, blogs, and the now of advertising and marketing. Written and illustrated by one of our most popular authors ever.”

My heartiest thanks to Seth, Amit Gupta and everybody involved with making it happen.
I hope you’ll check it out.

The best way to support gapingvoid is to sign up to "Hugh's Daily Frickin' Cartoon" Newsletter. A new cartoon sent out every weekday morning to your inbox [RSS version here.]. A wee chuckle to start your day off right etc.

    Excellent piece, Hugh – I especially loved the bit about the new carpenter maxim :)
    Cheers!

    Bastardstone’s – Waterstone’s employee sacked for blogging

    So, Waterstone’s bookshop have just fired Joe Gordon, an employee of eleven years, due to his blog. Pretty stupid move and another example of a company/brand (blah!) in need of reading the Hughtrain. Okay, it is perhaps a bit dumb…

    The Hughtrain Manifesto

    Hugh’s revised and sexed up the Cluetrain.

    The ‘Hughtrain’ is brilliant – nicely sums up a lot of the ideas I’ve had raging around in my somewhat chaotic mind for some time now – but which are bloody hard to articulate with any real lucidity or conviction. The cartoons are the icing on the cake – I love the amount of feeling you pack into those simple looking black lines. Just bought the ‘Cluetrain’ so looking forward to a little critical analysis. I’ll spread the word about ‘Hughtrain’…

    Thank you.

  10. The Most Honest Manifesto on Marketing

    Yes, I think so. People I have shown it to think so as well. People such as luminaries of Asian advertising and the likes. I’ll however allow Hugh to speak for himself here. Hugh can be found at his blog…
