e dice que en el transcurso del último lustro, el marketing ha evolucionado más que en los cincuenta años previos. Pero, ¿qué ha hecho durante este tiempo el consumidor? Con más acceso a la información gracias a la tecnología y mucho más sofisticados y escurridizos, parece que, como afirmaba un anuncio televisivo, en el mercado actual, los consumidores sí que hacen lo que les da la gana.

Shakespeare Had Roses All Wrong : NPR

About the creative (descriptive) use of language
An interesting discuss on language and how images have different meaning to different people and cultures
Lera Boroditsky's take on how language transmit culture. I'd also love to read her essay, "How Does Language Shape the Way We Think" in the anthology What's Next (Vintage Books, June 2009)
Through Juliet's lips, Shakespeare said "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." But the Bard may have been wrong — names do matter. Language researchers say your sense of the rose depends on what you call it.
Lera Boroditsky asks us to describe a bridge - "What explains the difference? Boroditsky proposes that because the word for "bridge" in German — die brucke — is a feminine noun, and the word for "bridge" in Spanish — el puente — is a masculine noun, native speakers unconsciously give nouns the characteristics of their grammatical gender" (wikipedia notes that "For the Burning Man festival, she once built a banana vehicle" ;)
