I think this debate continues (http://bit.ly/IM6Pp) because our own industry has perpetuated the big idea in its old incarnation: the TV spot. However, what we’ve always done in that space — conceive ideas that inspire everything from laughter to joy to participation — simply needs to be transferred to the new spaces: social, crowdsourcing, iPhones, digital, conversation marketing, new forms of online publishing. All of those media need great ideas and creativity. When we get to a saturation point of community and conversation, guess what will make those communities and conversations stand out (besides honesty, authenticity, transparency, engagement, of course)? CREATIVITY. BIG IDEAS. BIG LITTLE IDEAS. STUFF WORTH GETTING TALKED ABOUT. If we limit our thinking to the old — epitomized by TV — we die. If we expand our definition of ideas, creativity and inventiveness to all the new places and use them all as in ingredients for the recipe that yields or brings to life the truly big idea, we (our clients, our agencies, our employees) all flourish.

I think what John Hunt says here makes a lot of sense on this topic:

Now I like big ideas! The bigger the better. But I think we all need to classify what different types of ideas we use. First there are brand ideas, these will never die as every client will always need a neat summation of what their brand stands for. Next, there are advertising ideas, these are rather old fashion, quaint things that really are on their way out, as they are so limiting. And last, there are ideas which are so big they necessitate advertising to promote them. These latter ideas are the ones that are truly interesting, and the ones that will propel clients forward. I think anyone operating in the digital space understands this. I’m not sure that those working in more traditional media do.
