http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi_XEAA9X6c (might take a while to start so just leave the page open and wait a bit)If you know more than 50% of these you can start using the word viral in your pitch to clients, if not get stuck in by looking at all the links at the bottom of this page: http://cakke.wordpress.com/2007/10/21/the-internet-stars-are-viral/

http://www.skinkers.com/ and http://www.admonkey.co.uk/ 2 companies that offers these annoying desktop applications that some brand managers still think will be the links between the brand and the consumer, if only it was this easy. But could be an good solution for the like of Coke or Orange on a B2B site…

http://www.youtube.com/user/MeestaRamon the new Guinness campaign has started, there is also a PDF floating on the web….enjoy…

http://www.60uniteforchildren.com/ A work of art for this charity project, full size trailer and some tools for the user to help advertising the site. Sadly the actual section about the book itself is disappointing with only a few illustration and some old school pop-up…they could have used their change background function instead.

http://www.schooldisco.com/ New design even if not fully finish, I like the use of keyboard to browse the gallery. People can vote for and request songs, we will have to see what the community section will bring.

http://automobiles.honda.com/cr-v/crave/ Does not work for me, the link between the test and the car is not strong enough…

http://www.scifi.com/tinman/oz/ Stop starring…stop…a Flash experiment that became a commercial site, original http://www.zoomquilt.org/, updated version http://zoomquilt2.madmindworx.com/

http://www.brabus.ro/ They tried but sadly this site still looks like any other car site…

http://www.youtube.com/potnoodlenetwork Video competition from Pop Noodle, not original but it seems that the audience is getting into the spirit of things…

http://absolutbrasil.com.br/ Absolute Brazil used the Ipod looks but adds a few nice functions to it (360 and zoom).

http://www.captainmorgan.com/ had an Halloween competition and visit http://www.thebar.com/ (used zip code 71923 to get in) in case you don’t know it yet.

http://www.live-academy.co.uk/ and http://www.live-academy.co.uk/games/en/game1.html No point me reviewing this…you should know the score from opening the site.

http://www.lovecliffrichard.com/ After Radiohead PR stunt on price, Cliff is doing a pricedrop one…does not seem to be working...

http://www.mysteryfabric.com/ I am not the target audience but a simple site for a simple message.

http://www.hulu.com/ Could this bring the death of Joost?

http://www.shoreditchhouse.com/ Good use of space and imagery for a place that 99% of BD will never see…
