The marketing geniuses at Apple have done it again ! 🙂
From the second I saw & heard the MacBook Air commercial I felt that I knew the background song.
Well I finally realized that I did – it was a song from the French-Israeli singer Yael Naim (iTunes Album, official site). I had heard the song a few times on 102fm Tel Aviv.
Regardless of your politics, you gotta give up to the Obama campaign for having the most inspirational and unifying message out there.

Forget Bill and Hillary or Brad and Angelina, Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman are the official “It” couple after Silverman’s tribute to her boyfriend on his show’s fifth anniversary.
Enjoy — super funny !
Update If you haven’t been following the Kimmel VS Damon saga — check out this video, and then this one, before you watch the video below.
Another TED conference video just got posted — this time the always engaging and very funny Yossi Vardi talks about the “dangers” of blogging for men 🙂

Pretty impressive, with nearly 80,000 views on youtube and 5,000+ diggs on digg.com .
Now where is the WordPress music video ? 🙂
Three great videos to share today.
The first, is demo footage from upcoming game called Crysis. It shows off a pretty amazing physics engine. This game and a few others may get me back into PC gaming one of these days:
And lastly, Kara Swisher just blogged about a new video called “Here comes another bubble” sung to the tune of Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire”. Pretty funny and well produced:
great to see some new zefrank content:

I wrote a couple of months ago about My favorite videos that are marketing / HR / recruiting tools.
After watching this video from my friends at Splendora, I think we can crown a new champion. Simply brilliant ! :
I had the pleasure of attending NewTeeVee’s Citizen News event the other day, and I came away super impressed. The GigaOm team really knows how to put on a great event with the right mix of content, interesting judges, a good crowd and spot-on sponsorships that really ad value to the event.
The topic centered around citizen journalism/news and showcased several video clips that were later voted on by the audience ( via SMS ).
You can see all the videos here — but I wanted to highlight two in particular that really stood out for me, and turned out to be voted on #1 and #2 respectively by the crowd.
The first video was an installment from the “Alive in Baghdad” series, “Sectarian Violence is a Daily Experience”. Really compelling content, and unfiltered in a way that conveys maximum information and clarity. For all the mentos diet coke content out there (which rocks!), it’s great to also see truly powerful journalism being done by a small group of individuals who have the power of online distribution. (More great investigative journalism highlighted recently in a post by Marhsall Kirkpatrick)
The second video is called “Bodega”. It was very well produced and instantly genuine — to the point that I felt like I jumped back to new york, and was grabbing a yoohoo after a yankees game !
