Yup. It's another fun-filled round up of Cannes Lions shenanigans.

  1. Lots of good jokes and questions coming from Maurice Levy as he probes Yahoo CEO on his CV, boxing career and staff morale #CannesLions
  2. NY ad folks at #canneslions ... you have no excuse! 8-hour flights make NOW the time to hear your 1st BeanCast: bit.ly/beancast
  3. That's it from us at #CannesLions 2012. Here are the #MSACannes highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhCofN6yeAk Enjoy & see you next year!
  4. Ross Levisohn (CEO @Yahoo ) "Business is like boxing. After 17 years we continue to grow. To last, you have to have substance" #CannesLions
  5. For @Yahoo! to continue to be relevant, you have to have substance - & Yahoo! has continued to grow, says Levinsohn #CannesLions
  6. Yahoo continues to be relevant this long after it started and it is because of its content. @publicis #NewhouseIDSM #CannesLions
  7. Marc Pritchard (GMO P&G) : "A strong @yahoo is good for P&G and good for the industry" #CannesLions @PublicisGroupe conference
  8. #canneslions Ross Levinsohn says "Yahoos" bleed purple. They've been bleeding all over Cannes this week. Purple everywhere.
  9. #CannesLions Yahoo! CEO talking about company challenges and need for clear focus: on only the things they can/will do well across the globe

  15. Debbie Harry gets standing ovation #canneslions for just being awesome.
  16. McDonald's and free magnum ice cream bars. R.I.P. hot bod. #CannesLions
  17. I wish Mr Mellors of Grey would realize that we're here to hear Debbie Harry talk, not him #canneslions
  18. Dan Wieden and Sir John Hegarty screen some of their classic ads, and explain why they worked. adweek.it/MAY88C #CannesLions
