just in case you were wondering about the trick posed in this...
The answer is here.
There you go now. I particularly loved the suggestion though that "The guy is a witch. Burn him!"
EDITED: due to the extremely clever offthemeatrack pointing out my error. Oops!

That Samsung viral video - yes, it was not a mirror

Who has time to destroy a creme egg?
This guy, apparently.
It took six months to make the Rube Goldberg machine and three days (around 200 hours) to film. This is an entry in Cadbury's "Unleash The Goo" competition, in which entrants must find the most creative way to break a creme egg.All for a viral ad? Jaysis. Brings how do you destroy yours to a whole new level.

I don't know how they did it but I want that phone!
Yep, another commercial post!
So Vincenzo from the Viral Factory was in touch again with the new Samsung viral. I've had a look and while the video looks interesting, my goodness the phone looks great. The quality of that camera looks amazing!
You have to guess how it's done - they did it all in one take, no special effects etc - the comments say twins, a different room and so on. Watching in HD seems to be an advantage.
I am in the market for a HD camera that will help me with interviews, filming and the like. Hermione's recent experiment with the Flip Mino HD had me really interested though Niamh is suggesting the Kodak Zi6 based on this review.
All I know is I want a camera that can take in great quality, with good sound and range and allow me to edit in a simple way and upload directly. Still haven't found it... But that phone looks good.
Anyone got recommendations for a camera?

It's viral advertising but still pretty damn cool for the F1 fans
I got sent this via email today from Vincenzo who works for "viral videos production company from London" asking if I'd embed it, it being a Vodafone viral.
My initial reaction was no thanks, but after watching what they've done with a Blackberry Storm and a McLaren Formula One car, I have to admit to being impressed - looks pretty cool...
I'm not sure if I'm more impressed by them getting Lewis Hamilton to do it or that office racing track. That looks pretty funky, eh?
