Cool!
This guy is selling the ad space on his wedding tie to pay for the entire wedding! http://www.cravatamea.com/index-en.php - he ought to try listing it on AdBasement.com under whacky ad space.
AdBasement.com was originally inspired by reading Chris Anderson’s book The Long Tail. It struck us that whilst the long tail of music and long tail of books etc had been firmly established on the internet - no-one yet seemed to have produced a site that harnessed the power of the web for the Long Tail of Advertising Space.
So the idea firmly behind AdBasement.com is that small companies and individuals can bypass the big advertising agencies to buy or sell advertising space. New whacky opportunies for advertising open up. So what do mean by the long tail of advertising? Well just to get you thinking out of the box - here is our gallery of some crazy examples we have found on the web…

So for example - I will drive round Kent for the rest of 2009 with your business advert on my Suzuki Jimney 4×4 - you provide JPG artwork - I’ll do the rest!
Exactly like Mr Fischer I will accept any brand name or logo, however just like him “I wouldn’t go around with a swastika or anything racial. Other than that I wouldn’t promote anything socially unacceptable such as adult websites or stores.”
