The New Orleans' Advocate reports that a new form of advertising will soon be rolling around neighborhoods of New Orleans. A four-sided, 13-foot high digital billboard has been developed by Louisiana based Mobile Digital LLC. An image of the mobile billboard show it sitting on the back of a flat-bed truck displaying advertisements for a Pelicans versus Cleveland Cavaliers NBA game. The cube will be travelling around the city between the hours of 7 a.m. and midnight, daily. The developers of the Mobile Cube tell the New Orleans City Business that they hope to roll out the cubes to other cities around the country.
