What a great way to promote the new Madden video game. Madden crushes the videos adjacent to his video ad. Not the first use of an ad interacting with surrounding content, but a brilliant application. Hats off to the agency. Dare you identify yourself?
Blogging has been all the rage for a few years — with cover stories on major magazines, blogs about blogs, and some bloggers literally becoming credible media sources that rival legacy print and television brands. Interestingly, there’s a trend that appears to have accelerated far faster and more dramatically than blogs. Online video. Take for…
Okay get a coffee and sit down. This is one of my important posts. You’ll learn in this one post more than you learned in that stupid communications major (the sender sends messages, and the receiver receives them). I switched majors the day I realized half of the women in my Freshman 101 communications class…
The space called “online video” is as broad as its players: online-advertisers, mobile technology, content creators, media properties, networks, cable-television providers, startups and individual YouTube “weblebrities.” But let’s not miss the fact that while I’ve been writing about “online video” for 5 plus years, I don’t likely have 5 more to go. As I mentioned…
I’ve long accepted that YouTube doesn’t do technical support, and that technical glitches may exist for extensive periods. It’s virtually a monopoly here, folks. What do you expect? You expect a messaging system with a terrible user experience, you expect your last video’s thumbnail to override your profile picture. You expect the video to upload…
I may not make the best videos on the web, but I’ve got a psychic power emerging. I make a video spoof of something and it comes real. I’m the friggin’ “Harold and the Purple Crayon” of online videos. This has happened a few times… the most significant one was when I created Crackberry Blackberry…
Cute little print cartoon about viral videos. It’s kinda “Garfield” funny not “Farside” funny. But it’s topical. Courtesy of tk42one.com.

Yup, even I noticed that ad. Pretty neat.
The next time they do a “sexy ladies have one CRAZY night” movie, they should have the stars dressed as hookers soliciting the Spotlight videos.

Peter – far too clever and funny. Jeez man, I’m starting my day here trying to catch up. Jerk.
I like butter.
I have to agree it was a pretty cool ad. I don’t really care about the product they’re advertising, but it’s nice to have ads that are clever instead of irritating.
I thought it was pretty cool too. Apparently Madden is a pretty cool game. Not being a gamer, I really couldn’t care less, but still a cool ad.
Ditto to 1, 6 and 7
anyone have a link?
So Kevin will never wear his Nalts cap again after he gets this forehead hair. Isn’t that going to be strange?
