What We’re Loving: Wednesday Edition
1. Uniqlo’s UT video creator: Clever execution that creates a cute video integrating your Twitter feed to promote character tees, and a memorable tidbit from a brand that delivers at least one feel-good surprise every year. (Note: quickly gaining popularity, too, it seems)
2. Hail The Villain: I may not dig metal, but I LOVE how this Canadian band is promoting it’s new album. Users get thrown into a graphic novel style world that challenges them to solve a grisly mystery by finding clues, contacting the band, previewing the album and using a webcam to integrate personal pics. For a quick taste, view this video.
3.Rohit Bhargava’s article on what marketers can learn from Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution: Thoughtful and inspiring. Read it here.
4. Granimate: A musical wallpaper creator for the iPad?! Yes please. Preview it (very briefly) here. (via Creative Review blog)
5. Wordle: Ridiculously easy word cloud generator (and the second great design tool I found today. Check out 0 to 255 for color variations in a snap).
And the one thing we’re not quite sure about: Voyurl. Effective connection opportunity or just plain creepstastic? What are your thoughts?
Oh. And check out my Wordle for this post.

hi!
thanks for the mention of voyurl today.
i’d love to tell you more about the service as i’m the founder of it.
there’s plenty to discuss that i think will make lean towards the awesome side of things.
it’s all about an transparent relationship around data…. which is something i think more web services need to embrace. sites should be fostering a dialogue around the data they use, not the abuse of it.
