It may be hard to believe, but an average North American sees 3,000 ads per day. They are everywhere - at the gas pumps, in a bathroom, in the movie theater, on a bus and in the bus - advertising is impossible to avoid.

Due to advertisers' dismay at the declining effectiveness of traditional advertising mediums, ambient advertising has increased in popularity over recent years.

However, some think "ambient advertising contains the seeds of its own destruction ... because once the approach is copied and becomes commonplace, it ceases to surprise,"Guardian, August 1997.

Another problem is that "genuine impact of ambient media is difficult to measure as it often takes TV and press coverage to attract wider public attention to it." Sunday Business all the way back in 1998.

In the end, whilst not taking off in a huge way, ambient advertising shows no sign of going away. And to prove that - we collected Another 25 Creative Ambient Ads. Enjoy, and don't forget to tell us what you think!
