Oh man, this cracks me up so much. It's a tape found in a studio when a Korean band seemed to be shooting a music video (probably in the 1990's)Just pay attention to the drummer, his expressions are the things that legends are made from!

A big topic was the idea of "paying bloggers" from a public relations standpoint, we can't pay bloggers, because that's like paying journalists. unfortunately, journalists get paid for the writing, and bloggers don't get paid for their hobby.what we do see is blogs like Techcrunch paying their own writers. Hence, the blog needs to attract enough attention (can you beat TC's …

you've got to hand it to her. Xiaxue really puts Singapore on the map of the global blogosphere. by now, you might have seen this video floating around on the Internet:and if you haven't, well, there it is. it's an iphone "review" by Xiaxue because the producers of her vodcast, Xiaxue's guide to life played a "prank" on her by giving her a fake iphone to review, and when …
okay you lot. this sod promised Daryl that he would go down for the Social Media Breakfast @ Frujch last saturday, 29 March 2008. i'm glad i did, i met a bunch of great people, had really good conversations and best of all, i enjoyed myself.it also got me thinking, as PR practitioners who are evolving, we always talk about "oh yeah, and we can leverage on social media to do …
Waffletown and i have quite a bit of history together. I basically grew up eating Waffletown as a kid, when mom would buy back fried chicken, mashed potatoes and the awesome waffles with ice-cream home for lunch. maybe i was a pretty spoiled kid. lesse, i'd probably need to have been in primary school if i were to count back the number of years its been since i've eaten their …
this easter long weekend has been a rather strange one of late. in a sense, everything went as it should, everything was great and for most part, i'm happy, glad that i was a part of something.but still, the saturday was a very surreal one.. i felt a bit distanced from the things that were always around me. family, friends, activities.. it was a feeling of displacement that i …
advertising in the past decade or so seems to have lots its edge to disrupt us in our daily lives and take notice. it's not that the creativity isn't there, but i think we just know an advertisement when we see one. it just doesn't disrupt our lives anymore, and when it does, it tends to irk us instead of make us curious. this is where i think advertising should evolve. it …
Hillarious clip of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain in a Pokemon-politik face off!Barack uses HOPE!McCain is confused!joy, i heart american politik.
one of my main gripes is, people expecting a digital influence strategy to be the miracle pill to all your business woes. the audience exists online right? so why not just reach out to them there? yeah, the proof is in the pudding, but i'm sure every marketer and advertiser has also seen the charts that indicate, the money simply isn't going into digital. markets in Singapore …
what's the first thing you think of when you think of the public relations practitioner? that he/she is a lying, sniveling rat that fluffs every piece of news and doctors the spin making the media untrustworthy?i dare say that this is only a fraction of the actual practitioners in the world today, and is only a stereotype borne by popular culture. and yet, the voices of those …
i refer to a quote found here. this quote was left behind after someone blogged about his terrible experience waiting in a queue for hours at Singapore's recent Air Showi'll quote verbatim …
so, some of you might have been wondering what i've been keeping up to all this time. as per my last post, i did go up to KL to watch explosions in the sky. read on for our escapades!if you feel inclined, you can check my pictures out on facebook or flickrbut i'll leave it to rudi, dewi and dhany to tell you about what you missed out on.and here's a taste of the music that i …
every now and then, something interesting pops into your life when you least expect it, especially when it's something you know not many people know about either.for those of you who remember steph song, she charmed many hearts as an FHM cover girl, and later on acted in a few TCS programmes. and then she disappeared off the face of Singaporean TV.I guess she went back to …
maybe one of a man's most innate fear is that he is obsolete, redundant, and basically all the things he isn't that he thought he was. does your spine not tingle when the cold, thin fingers of fear arch their way across your back as the impending doom of non-existence looms in the horizon?that you are not neededthat you are no longer wantedthat everything you thought you knew …
FINALLY! After more than 500+ notifications, facebook has finally allowed us to clear multiple application invitations.it's about bloody time i say. yay, now facebook will be fun to use again -)))
it's probably not advisable to type an entry at 1:52 in the morning, but i can't help it. i logged on, after everything was over. and it's true, everything is over and this blog really feels like dead space.to think it used to be a glorious space of ideas, thoughts and musings, and now it's the graveyard for days gone by.i don't think it matters to the masses, i'm probably …
according to www.strumpette.com, Loren Feldman is their person of the year. I had to hear what he had to say about his predictions for 2008, and his predictions for all these new social media applications notwithstanding, it was his final sentence that made me realise just how important this man's voice is.watch the video, and listen out for the clincher at the end:"it will …
