Bringing back the 80s - one photo at a time!
We made mistakes in the 80s. Huge mistakes. And most of them involved our fashion choices. We recently created a promotional tool for Mirvish Productions in Toronto to run photo contests on their website. The current contest for Rock Of Ages (with a pair of tickets to see Bon Jovi’s The Circle World Tour on July 21 up for grabs) is the Awesome 80s Photo Contest. Check it out here or read more about the functionality below. 
How do I use my Canadian iPad in the US?

Archiving Video on Facebook
In order to reach a variety of audiences, the Luminato Festival archived their event video footage (nine 1-hour videos) on their website as well as on Facebook during the 2010 Festival. Each day, the video content was added and will remain as an archive for those that were unable to attend the events in person.
Not only are they appealing to their Facebook audience (and potentially increasing it), they are providing content to a global audience.
You can view their Facebook Video Page here.
FIFA World Cup: Genius Design!
Genius work by the duo Bas & Daan: a KNVB supporter shirt with the faces of the 3 most famous players of the Dutch national team.

Carving out your place in the social web has never been easier.
