Horrrraaaaay!

A quick video on Loopthing, the business networking website, where Joseph Kelly talks about what is Loopthing and how it can help your business.

The action happens in The Hub, in London, from what I’ve heard.

Now, as I was playing with Vimeo’s API, I stumbled across this video:

Now, I wonder what’s the connection between the dead animal singing and the lyrics which say “You are so beautiful…”.

LOL

Australia’s effort to promote tourism transformed in a huge viral campaign for Whitsunday Islands which quickly made the world tour and then some. The contest involved becoming the caretaker around the well known Great Barrier Reef islands group.

The job listing was referring to a dynamic person, very much into traveling and experiencing new things.  I believe accommodating with new places was also a must.

Some of the required tasks to perform by the successful candidate included things like living in a three roomed villa, feeding the fish for 12 hours a month, mail collecting and pool cleaning (did you have many expectations from this $25.000/month job?)

The contract was set for 6 months, but I can’t imagine the amount of exposure this campaign got, which once again proves things can be done at a major scale just by using a smart idea.

Congrats to Ben Southall, the winner of the contest!
