Getting nexted on Chatroulette

Chatroullette is a hybrid of speed dating and hot or not (well pervert or not!), via video and IM chat, at least that’s my take on it. Watch Casey Neistat’s video study (above) to get an indepth view. Or, of course, play for yourself. In my 5 minute foray into this world I got seriously [...]

My ‘Hardchorus’ for Rachael

Lovely bit of work from Puma, The Hardchorus. An unlikely choir sing their hearts out for valentines and match day! Nice and simple Facebook integration allows you to get the message to your loved one. Would have been nice to have seen the personalisation in a spoken name, rather than text on screen, but no [...]

My name spelt out on the streets of San Francisco…

Using Google Latitude a team of people ran around San Fran and, via their mobile phones, positioned themselves to spell out my name – viewable on this Google map. Of course that’s not strictly true. Its a ‘viral’ from the chaps at Google to showcase Latitude – real time positioning of friends on a map. [...]

Two more video’s that educate on digital

On my quest to make digital more understandable via video I found two more clips of note. Perhaps a bit geeky, but essential in getting the back story, the animation “History of the internet” describes how the internet evolved from 1957 – 2009. Copyright, who better to explain the importance of Creative Commons – than [...]

Addictive TV remix Iron Man

Addictive TV give the Iron Man movie their particular style of remix mashup bootleg that they’re famous for. I know that New Line Cinema got them to mixup Shoot Em Up and Snakes On A Plane [below]. But I wonder if Paramount commissioned them to do Iron Man? Of course the marketers wet dream is [...]

The truth about FaceBook

Hilarious real-world sketch on the realities of connecting to people you weren’t really friends with in the first place. I totally relate to this. Hardly using FaceBook anymore, in fact, it outright annoys me most of the time. It has no relevance now I’ve got over the honeymoon of connecting to everyone I knew. Maybe [...]

I drink your milkshake madness on Twitter

I setup a Twitter track on the word ‘milkshake’ to see if it was the next internet meme… check this!! And yes, Daniel Day-Lewis won the Best Actor Oscar for his performance in There Will be Blood.

The Urban Spirit in MySpace, and yours

Finally we’re live! the time it takes to develop within MySpace is quite astonishing… baring in mind the speed at which the online social world moves. We’ve been working on Lion Nathan’s McKenna Bourbon brand for sometime and our strategy this year was to compliment their online presence with a destination in MySpace called The [...]

The Media Revolution?

It seems that in the future we’ll all sound Italian, and still talk in uneccesary jargon.
