Samsung FCU

Last week Samsung had released the latest and last video in the  "FCU" campaign. It's a great series about a news-unit called FCU: The Fact Checkers Unit, which is a tam that, you guessed it, verifies random (and ludicrous) weird rumours about the rich and famous.

Questions such as: "Does T-pain sleep in a coffin?" and "Does DMC live in a castle?" (Apparently he does walk that way)

The last video wraps up the series nicely and ponders on the question: Who (or what?) is Heavy Mustache and how to seduce women by means of a cow costume. Someone find me this awesome costume!
You can watch the video here:





A great thing about this series is how the actual product, the Galaxy Note, is seamlessly integrated into the background in a completely non-intrusive way. It's a refreshingly commercial social video in that aspect. Props to Samsung for that.

SOPA

For all those who wondered why the blog was inactive for over a month.

Pre-emptive strike because of SOPA and PIPA

*cough* uh ... yeh


SOPA and PIPA have been discussed at length and from the die-hard internet junkies scouring through reddit to the user who perhaps only checks his mail and Wikipedia: Everybody has read about the inherent effects of this dodgy legislation.
The internet is a very complicated subject. It's a tangled web that diffuses the concept of nationality and affects millions of people for thousands of reasons. This is why it deserves more than some vague legally-binding text.
