Hi, I'm a Marvel...and I'm a DC (Mac/PC Parody)
Labels: DC, Mac PC ads, Marvel, Spider-Man, User-Generated, Video, Viral Video, YouTube
With box office records being set this weekend for the new Spider-Man 3 movie (an estimated $148 million in the U.S. and $375 million in global gate), everyone seems to have Spidey Fever.
It looks like we all got caught in last week's Spider-Man Web Week...it's been unavoidable.
Being a fan, I certainly don't mind.
I've also been a big fan of the "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" commercials from Apple...still not tired of them. Nor am I tired of the great user-generated spoof parodies they've inspired.
So, in the spirit of Spider-Man Mania, enjoy this "I'm a Marvel, I'm a DC" Apple parody as Spider-Man (Marvel) and Superman (DC) discuss the state of their respective film divisions. It's fun (and geeky) viral video.

Bumps and Crashes: Slick New Media Watching
Labels: Jointblog, Media Trend Watching, New Media, Slippery Slope, Video, YouTube
New media is slick. Sleek. Slippery fast. It changes our point of view of media and the world around us.
Change can happen so rapidly, it seems we slide onto the next-new-thing right away. Faster and faster. The loss of control as users decide how, what, when and where they use new media has content owners feeling out-of-control, with nothing slowing it down.
No brakes. No steering.
Kind of like watching this YouTube video of driving conditions on a hill after a Portland ice storm. The literal slippery slope. Careful: there are bumps and crashes ahead. The good news: some damages are repairable. Even so, some are not.
Change can be a slippery slope...slippery slopes do eventually reach an end point.
Where will new media take us next? And how can we steer clear of obstacles?
That's for media trend watching...
