Honda Viral Ad
The amount of amazing branded video out there is endless. Sometimes oldies are goodies. This is a two minute clip created by Honda to illustrate that things just work. Rumor has it that it took hundreds and hundreds of tries to get this entire sequence just right, but my guess is that a little professional magic was used to make it work regardless. Regardless, it’s a cool video either way.
The point: Quit trying to figure out how to advertise your brands within other offerings. Good branded content is the real deal and it stands the test of time.

seo practices demystified
Search engine optimization is definitely a moving target but the great thing about it is that it makes sense. Sure Google might continue tweaking and refining the algorithms to the behest of SEO specialists, but it does so to weed out the sites out there that are trying to trick the system into thinking their page is more relevant than it is. I like that.
I stumbled across this video on YouTube that demystified SEO just a little more.
Randy Pausch Stumble Upon Viral Video
Viral video gives you a 2nd chance to watch what you’ve heard about and read about but never saw. I have read about Randy’s speech. I have heard many people talking about Randy’s speech and I was inspired by the story told to me 2nd hand. However, I never created the time and sought out Randy’s speech for first hand inspiration.
Well, Nancy, my awesome wife, just forwarded a stumbleupon link to me with his speech. I’d go more into detail about how great stumbleupon is for finding great content on the web but the inspirational message of Randy’s presentation takes front and center stage on this one.
