Television-based interactive advertising has been a dream for so long it's almost humorous to recall the first chest beating heard from nacent cable operators about how it would revolutionize television. Of course, that revolution never took place and we're all still dreaming of the day with TV advertising truly becomes interactive.

Red Tettemer +Partners has teamed with Dial For Men again for a second "get men clean" event. Last August, the agency put together an event in Granby Colorado and over the course of the two days did everything they could do to get men dirty...so they could then use Dial to clean up.
This year, the agency is doing it all over again with "40 Days of Filth," a more social media-focused approach that includes challenges and prizes over the course of the 40 days. Well, actually, the challenges consist of sitting on your ass and clicking around to enter a drawing but, hey, that's actually challenging for some.
Check it all out on the brand's Facebook page.
