Google +

Here's a video overview of Google + which is Google move into the social media space. They have tried a couple of times before unsuccessfully but regardless of their ability to execute a real social platform there is what I think a solid insight behind Google + which is the partitioning of different social groups by people and therefore social media reflecting that tendency. Eg there are conversations you want to be able to have with certain groups that you don’t want to have to broadcast to your entire network.

 

 

 

Whopper lust

Beavis_and_butthead_horror

 Whopper Lust challenge… You’ll see a 5 minute countdown. Just watch the perfectly flame grilled burger spin for a ridiculous 5 minutes and you get a free burger, watch it for 10 minutes and you get two, 20 minutes and you get four… etc

But, you have to stay on top of it. The TV prompts you to hit various buttons on your remote every so often, miss one, the clock re-starts, and you loose that burger! Complete the challenge and you can claim the free burger right there on the TV.

Burger King have already given away over 50,000 burgers this week, and at this rate, by the end of the week, over 800,000 minutes or 13,500 hours of pure Whopper TV will have been watched!
