Keyboard Cat and Telstra do not mix
Remember how Facebook stopped being fun when your parents asked to be your friends on it?
Now Telstra has stolen Keyboard Cat from us.
Update: And the first remix is on YouTube too:

I was hoping, perhaps naively, that keyboard cat was going to play off the T-Hub ad itself.
What is next, someone gets a phone bill over $9,000? Or Xzibit puts a T-Hub inside a T-Hub?
This is madness..

SO LAME! I CRINGE every time I see this ad! Can’t even believe Telstra let it go to air. It’s trying WAAAYYYY to hard.

LOL @ Andrew – I hope this is the first and last meme they use. It just feels like this big massive brand (that’s had bad opinion for… forever) needs to reinvent itself. It certainly won’t do anybetter by attachign itself to ‘popular’ things. I feel for them, I do. But there must be a better way. Com’on Telstra! Throw money into better service first before advertising and gadgets!

Jesus wept. This makes the World Envy series of ads (John McEnrone / Dustin Hoffman / Bob Geldof campaign epic fail) seem good.

LOL @Andrew and jsoh909. Telstra should throw money into better service than advertising or cool gadgets that no one can afford

What were the creatives smoking to think this was “cool” anyway?
Creative 1: “right we have to advertise this “thingy” the client has.
Creative 2: “what does it do?”
C1: its some box thing that you get the internet on
C2: oh like You Tube and Stuff?
C1: yeah i think so…
C2: oohh.. so whats funny on you tube these days?
C1: oh i dunno, its blocked int he office i think… let me ask my kids
The risk of using a popular viral element of your campaign guys is you just become Lame and Aged overnight.
We have moved on from the Cat, today its Soldiers doing GaGa
