The Plaid Nation Summer Tour

For the second year in a row, a group of hipsters from Connecticut shop, Plaid, are traveling along the west coast meeting brands, creative people and interesting characters in none other than their own plaid-painted van – then reporting it all back to you through their Plaid Nation site.

This is a really cool idea and one that’s generating a good deal of PR throughout the blogosphere, as well as getting coverage on the other two sites run by Plaidsters – Brand Flakes for Breakfast and Make the Logo Bigger. If you’d rather be out on tour than stuck in a cubicle today, live vicariously through Plaid on their tour blog today.
