Candy and Cackles: SWA Launches Halloween Theme on BlogSouthwest.com
We love to have fun. And we love that Southwest Airlines loves to have fun, too. Part of our latest blog design (v3) for Nuts About Southwest was adding the ability to create night and day themes for holidays and special occasions.

A way to more deeply connect the Southwest Airlines brand with Customers by exposing how Southwest Airlines ticks. We knew this was a very special launch in that Southwest Airlines was taking a tremendous step forward at a time when companies were not yet completely taking the risk of jumping into the social space...
