1. Star Wars A Capella Tribute
Together with a cappella comedy group Moosebutter, Corey Vidal made the above video. It’s a tribute to John Williams. In the video Corey does a cappella versions of Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones and others. The video generated 1.8 million views since it was uploaded on YouTube two an a half weeks ago and over 700 bloggers wrote about it.
2. The Matrix Runs On Windows
CollegeHumor, part of Connected Ventures, keeps scoring high in the Viral Friday rankings with their Original Videos series. After Internet Commenter Business Meeting, Where The Hell Is Matt’s Girlfriend?, 24: The Unaired 1994 Pilot, Font Conference and “If All Movies Had Cell Phones” they now bring us The Matrix Runs On Windows. 8077 people Digged this latest CollegeHumor video. The Matrix probably would have been less exciting if the movie had to be restarted every ten minutes and the Agent Smiths inexplicably froze up during fight scenes… The YouTube version of the video generated over 300.000 views in just three days time.

Toshiba debuts world’s first “timesculpture” commercial, an evolution of the “bullet time” technique made famous by The Matrix.

Over 20 Terabytes – 20,000 Gigabytes – of video data was used, taking over 336 continuous hours to process. In 3 days time the video got over 230.000 views and 145 blog reaction. (Source: Toshiba)
5. Mitsubishi: On Your Mark
At the Mondial de l’Automobile (the Paris Motor Show) last October, Mitsubishi launched two new models; the new Colt and the Lancer Sportbreak.

On the On Your Mark site, you have to choose a place in your country, placing your mark on the interactive map, to get a chance to win a Colt or a Lancer. The whole campaign is in all Japanese style and features two Japanese game show elements; Lancer Loop and Colt Curling. Also available: The Making Of.
