brand tags

brand tags. This is just really interesting. It's a site that displays brands on the screen for you (like Canon, Google, Costco and so on) and you add in a word or a phrase to describe what it means to you. Almost entirely pointless, yet engaging at the same time. It's interesting to see what the image says - I did one for a product I didn't know called 'dippin dots' and tagged it as 'fish'. In actual fact it's an icecream company of some sort. Some companies need to be concerned - 'Capital One' had as some seriously large/common/popular tags 'annoying', 'barbarians', 'crooks', 'debt' and so on. There's also a pit one brand against another game, which is great if you're feeling annoyed and want a release of tension!

It doesn't have battle mode like the American site, but it's still great fun guessing the brands from other people's tags, and tagging brands yourself without having to keep skipping all the US names I've never heard of.
