Looking at You Tube this morning I saw You Tube now has a trending terms widget. Not sure how new this is but I’ve not seen any comments about it. It’s interesting, Google adding a real-time search element to the site. You’ve long been able to see what people are watching ‘right now’ but [...]
Police, the fashion house rather than the force or the band, are looking for “a new face for the next international advertising campaign 2010!” You can submit your entry to the Be Younique contest up until Aug 30th and every 2 weeks, a new set of finalists will be chosen, with the winner being [...]
I’ve finally caught up with the Prototype Experience, a promo for a new console game that has been exciting so many marketers on the blogs. It looks like a great game, one I’ll end up buying (and as usual playing really, really, badly) so it worked for me as a enticement to purchase. [...]
With all the posts I write about Samsung I think it’s time I got to play with one of their gadgets! But the different bits of the company keep producing great stuff for online marketing.
Here’s another one from the phone division for their new I8910 HD phone, a camera trick. I’ll have to [...]
April Fool videos top the video rankings last week – along with a lot of Lady Gaga. In comparison to all that ‘fun’, here’s a strong video starring Keira Knightly, directed by Joe Wright, for the charity Women’s Aid. It’s not a fun ad at all.
Next up, here’s a very silly Spanish(?) video [...]
I’m getting mildly excited about the new Watchmen film, enough so that I’m contemplating buying the book to see what all the fuss is about, why everyone praises it. Which is a pretty interesting choice for me as I never find graphic novels that interesting as an input device. As befits a genre movie, [...]
Watch the above ad, then go take a look at the Computer Tan site. Have you done, have you seen the brilliant products they’re offering and did you take up their free offer? I so want the mobile version.
I hope you weren’t taken in, that you know that the whole product is a complete [...]
Breathing Places is a BBC programme ( I assume aimed at children) that focuses on wildlife and the environment and what you can do to understand them and help them. As part of the Christmas drive it’s produced this very surreal, creepy video. I say creepy, because that’s how i find it. I was spending [...]
A few weeks ago, at Playful, Roo Reynolds demonstrate how to turn his plastic guitar into a real guitar, or at least an instrument you can play your own music on instead of just following the onscreen cues.
Roo Reyolds plays “Hotel California” from Tom Armitage on Vimeo.
The Idea
The popularity of the games like Rock [...]
The top rated product video is absolutely brilliant. It’s Guitar Hero in the real world. Using a bike and lots of marks on the road, the game is recreated with superb timing and lots of practice. The video has been generating a lot of discussion this week about whether it is real or not and [...]
