While I give full marks to Beacon Web Studio for their ability to own their Google footprint, I think this is a bit of a copout for a creative agency. Also, their simultaneously promoting Google, which, I imagine, has nothing to do with their core business.

I have observed that people are often frustrated when we ask them to do work simply to contact us. The cleverness wears off as soon as the recipient needs to get a hold of you.

This example, for Dallas Printer is better because it prints the contact info, if only as a spoof. Still, you’d think a printer could team up with a designer to create something novel.
