Goggles
You know those thigs that seem glaringly obvious once you’ve seen them, the ones where you go: “Damn, I wish I’d thought of that”. Well here’s one: Goggles :: The Google Maps flight sim Take Google maps and turn it into the landscape for a…
Coke do good
Coke have been getting quite a lot of slating for various things that they’ve been doing online. Poor user generated content, ill conceived non-virals, etc. Not sure where this came from, but for me this is a ‘viral’ movie. I bet it was…
Channel4Radio.com
Channel4Radio.com is a new Channel 4 venture offering a range of podcasts. Some of them look pretty good. They’ve got a series of 30 daily downloads from the Edinburgh festival, which is nice. Plus Richard and Judy’s Audiobook Club! But…
I lied
I know I said I’d shut up about a certain topic, but… Kevin left a comment asking what I thought of his opinions on the Agency.com thing. So I thought the least I could do is take a look. He makes some very good points, however, as I said…
Roll Over
I think this will be my last word on the Agency.com Subway thing. But I’m never one to say never… I got a nice mail from Tom at Agency (he of “Roll Big” fame). The gist of the mail was: They’ve been reacting to things as they unfold (and…
Microsoft Brainwash
Whilst watching the demo of this interesting new Microsoft product: Microsoft Live Labs: Photosynth – Video I noticed that the guy had a bottle of Microsoft Brainwash on his desk. Surely a funny gag that’s been put in there by some kind of…

WhenWeRollWeRollBig.com
A response from the Agency.com camp regarding the Subway video. It’s basically saying: “we did it, we got people talking, that’s the whole point”. I’m sure the debate will rage on around whether this is just a good piece of…
It was viral…
Now it’s a phenomenon! The immortal line from the Agency.com Subway viral comes alive. Check out the “if we roll, we roll big” t-shirt. With snappy, “corner office, now” detail on the back. Printed on high quality American Apparel garment…
Agency.com ‘viral’ pitch video
OK, I’m going to give credit where it’s due: hats off to Agency.com for nailing their colours to the mast (in a very public way) and for using web stuff to talk about web stuff. Credit over. Maybe it’s just a cultural thing. But this video…
Gamers vs Avatars
Great online gallery of gamers alongside the avatars that they use to represent themselves. The fact the commentary is in German kind of adds to it in a strange way. Tip: click the images to move on to the next pair. Via We Make Money Not…
