So I woke up this morning and …
… BOOM. There’s been a twisted takeover on the blog. I feel really good partnering with McDonald’s for this type of execution. Ads are ads but when the entire brand takes over your template, that’s something completely unexpected and eye catching. Fun! Well, as you can obviously see, the good news is that Twister Fries…
