    Really interesting project and kinda surprising to see this from American Express. I guess it shows how the brand is evolving. I love the content and those big images – this definitely speaks to me. Very neat!

    I agree, it’s the little interactions that give the site its charm together with the actual stories. The stories are entertaining and colorful and don’t take themselves too seriously. This must be a big project for Amex and as a cardholder it’s cool to see this as I definitely hadn’t seen it before. Nice spot, Gene, and a site, I’ll come back to..

    What I like best is the simplicity. The temptation is always to do more – more animation, more effects, more video. This is deceptively simple. Not as simple as it looks though is what I’m guessing.
