Flash Mob - A commentary

FlashMob:
Pillow fights, zombies eating human brain, silent raving, flashmob flash photos, and many more... Where does it all end? Or does it? A couple of cool business models have emerged. And marketeers have picked up a few new ways to get you. Are there any negative impacts of this? Plenty, I would think. But, its still fascinating to see complete strangers coordinate and have some fun. How starved are we?:)

I'm waiting for this to be used effectively or obstructively on the next political campaign. Or for that matter, on our current prez... a little bit of fun wont hurt, would it?

What would Bush do if he were to be confronted by 4000 strange zombies? plus one, I say! What would Hillary do, if 4000 Bill Clinton's show up on her campaign trail one day?

A brief history of flash mob in Wikipedia...

Very interesting...

Silent Raving in London:
IMO, this one is the best so far: "Silent Rave" Revelling... I would have gone:) This one would qualify as "modern art" and a video of this should be in SFMoma!


Internet Bargain hunting? - China:
This one, you got to take your hats off to Chinese(asian?) ingenuity in finding a deal... Russell Peter - are u watching? Ur jokes might need to be reworked a bit...

Teambuying is indeed a very creative... Walmart, welcome to china
