Viral Marketing

There’s a new marketing tool raging through the internets.  Video.  Video so good, so inspiring, so odd, that you can’t NOT share it with your friends and family and of course your own social networking crowd.  More often than not the product is completely obscured and seems to have no relevance to the video, but no one cares because the video is so FUN!  :D  I’m not sure if it’s real, but here is the philosophy behind the Megawoosh project.  (Rumor has it that these videos are somehow related to the Microsoft project management tools.)  Austrian engineer Bruno Kammerl explains that he has always loved slides and he wants to share that love, he wants us to feel the joy that he feels.
