Who's Your Favorite Advertising Icon?
Update: The 2006 winners have been announced!
For most of August and September, you can vote for your favorite icon and your favorite slogan.
Previous icon winners include the M&M Characters, the Geico Gecko, and the Pillsbury Doughboy. Slogan winners include Wendy's "Where's the beef?" and Verizon's "Can you hear me now?" This year, you can choose only one of 26 icons and also one of 26 slogans. Trust me, for fans of pop culture, it's not an easy choice. Next year, I suggest that they allow people up to 5 votes to spread around.
For the third consecutive year, Advertising Week is conducting this poll to determine which two icons and slogans are added to the Madison Avenue Advertising Walk of Fame.
On September 29th, you'll be able to head back to Advertising Week to see who won this year.
Do you see any favorite icons or slogans that are missing? The icon I am surprised didn't make the list is Ronald McDonald. The missing slogan that I just can't believe didn't make the list is Miller Lite's "Tastes great! Less filling!"
Do you see any other icons or slogans missing? Comment here and let your opinion be known!

I do not see this slogan listed. "The sound of one hand clapping erasers."
