Confused - not that that's new

TVNZ's homepage takeover today is one of their own. I know I have seen this creative before, but I would have a clue what its for, and there seems to be no information on the page about what it is for either.
Considering that it's kinda my job to know these things, though my amazing powers of deduction I have concluded that this is for the Mentalist which premieres tonight. I think. Come on though, I work in the industry and am hyper sensitive to this sort of stuff, what about people who don't have a clue?

On another note - all you Wellingtonians - you coming to the Tweetup this week at Mighty Mighty? Please note, this is the new venue, there had to be a slight change of venue after we initially posted the invite. RSVP to the right. Hope to see ya'll there on Thursday.

Don't forget us Chrome users!

What a lovely takeover you have done FlyBuys and DFS - All pretty and blue and looking great through Firefox...
Sucks that it completely dies when you look at it in Chrome. Sample of me and visitors to my blog, 10% of my visitors (unique) use Chrome. That's a whole lotta people that are not seeing this advertising as planned - and infact, it ends up looking really bad. That is not a transition on that top banner - that's just what it looks like.
Don't forget us Chrome users - there are more of us than you think.

UPDATED: Ok, so as Anonymous has pointed out: "This is actually an Eyeblaster issue as they do not support Chrome for wallpaper ads. Fortunately Chrome only has 2% penetration in NZ." So what is Eyeblaster up to. Sure, as they point out Chrome only has 2% penetration in NZ - but there was a point when Firefox only had 2% penetration too - gotta move with the times people, 2% penetration since December 08 - that's not bad and sure to grow.
