Nike Blogger Shoe Design Contest

Nike – as usual – is trying a bunch of marketing and branding things in and around blogs.  I got a note from Josh Spear who runs a blog he refers to as “the pulse of cool” who was chosen by Nike to participate in their online / blogger shoe design contest

Josh put up a white and yellow design which you should go vote for.  His is the white and yellow sneaker called “The Spear.”  Josh is in second place, no doubt helped by his own use of his blog to get the word out.

His shoe has fallen to third at the moment.

I'm all for showing support for bloggers, but I can't in good conscience vote for such an ugly shoe. Especially with so many nice ones competing. What kind of message are we trying to send? That bloggers are color-blind and tasteless?

I don't really see how this Nike promotion can be called a "blog". It's really just a flash movie that they've decided to call a blog but it doens't have any of the typical blog features/attrubites.
