Australian men are childish morons. Advertising has been telling us this for years, but if your man would rather play foosball with a stranger than choose the furniture he will have to live with, perhaps you're nesting in the wrong tree.

This technology was developed by Jason Saragih, a research scientist at the CSIRO in Brisbane. It’s pretty creepy, but with some refinement could make for some very interesting applications in the future. You can read a bit more about this, and his other projects here.

Tumblr_lq7ksnamwl1qzpsi6o1_500

Hasn’t got off the ground yet and may not get far off it when it does but an entertaining example of another of the spate of real world games facilitated by mobile/digital/social.

Do this instead wasting time on reading and exercise.

Tue, 30 Aug 2011 21:52:00 -0700 Red Bull SIM if you've got Klout http://pittandliverpool.posterous.com/red-bull-sim-if-youve-got-klout http://pittandliverpool.posterous.com/red-bull-sim-if-youve-got-klout

Tumblr_ljccd9zzce1qf60z5o1_500

Red Bull are giving away fully loaded SIM cards to people with Klout as part of an F1 Australian leg promotion.

 

http://klout.com/#/perk/MEC/RedBullAustralia

 

Klout measures social influence through channels like Twitter and now Facebook. The pay off to brands is obviously that if you reward the influential you maximise advocacy potential. The pay off to consumers is arguably recognising them for being popular and having influence is flattering and requires next to no effort.

 

I doubt there is a category that couldn’t use targeting by influence to their advantage. One of the airlines in the US for example gives discounts on fares to people with more than 1,000 followers on Twitter.
