This is a pretty cool promotion. The King is dropping wallets full of cash and a Burger King gift card. Don't run out into the streets just yet though! The promotion is just happening in Chicago and Orlando right now.

All ads that go viral are destined to be mocked and this here might tell you how easy it is to do kinetic text these days. The Motrin ad gets mocked with babywearing versus boob-jobs. Indeed one of these things may make your back hurt (being naturally top heavy sure does, the help for that is to get a decent bra fitted - big girls please remember that bravissimo is your friend, they even have pyjamas with support. Man they should pay me or least discount my cute set habit for always telling my friends about them. ha!)

Blurring the boundaries between reality and fiction was what artists Robin Hewlett and Benjamin Kinsley wanted to do - what if Google re-shoot a Pittsburgh street, with quirky things happening along the way as hidden as easter eggs within the hood. The artists approached the Mattress Factory for help, and they were all surprised when they asked Google if they would join them in staging a google street view event, and Google said "yes".

Firemen rescue stuffed cats, garages host live bands, runners fake a marathon, and it all ends when all the neighbors join in a parade for you - here is a list of arranged scenes that you can find in Google Maps. Users want to play with your new toy? Let them! Google gets it.

I'm not sure which easter egg is my fave, the narrow escape or the giant chicken? The Mad scientist laboratory is pretty funny as well.

To my fellow Americans who are going to rock the vote tomorrow, think about the future!

The Simpsons will air its Halloween Special this Sunday and one story is a parody of Mad Men! Don't miss it!

The Viral Factory (UK) mock all those youtube films where people unbox their latest tech gear. So far it's been viewed 650,000 times.

Here's a follow-up to that poster with the puking gorilla which nods to the serial award winning Cadbury Gorilla - except this one is created by DDB Stockholm for the ad awards Roygalan.

This idea probably formed faster than anyone can say "Vista", this comeback was practically handed to Apple on a silver platter - summation: Microsoft spends more money on advertising Vista than fixing it. Ha ha ha....

My suicidal instincts aren't wha tthey should be, I kept trying not to hit the kittens, but the point is to kill yourself in 4mations suicide kittens flash game. You have to manoeuvre the 4mations' kitten-skull character "General Tiddles" and shoot laser beams from its eyes in a bid to ultimately self-destruct in a Kamikaze-style finale. The Ka-bloom is quite satifying. Trivia: General Tiddles also appears in two animated viral films ‘Driving School’ and ‘Deep Philosophy’ and an ‘interactive blog badge’ designed to let bloggers support 4mations by adding it to their blog.

With all this political hoopla going on, needy charities are going unnoticed......unless.....
