Send Your Facebook On Holiday
There are so many people out there that would kill to go on holiday, but could never afford it, well Capetown tourism could give you the next best thing. With Cape Town tourism you can send your Facebook profile on holiday to Cape Town, they basically update your profile with pictures taken all over Capetown, making it look like you're actually there, people that have already signed up for this campaign have actually had people asking them what their holiday was like. This is a great way to advertise a city and has actually proven to be very successful.
Google Outside
How many times a day do you wonder about something then proceed to whip out your smartphone and quickly google it. Well with the collaboration of Google and R/GA London you wont even have to do the last two steps. There are now outdoor panels all over London on bus stops and train stations at 160 sites, providing real time weather and travel updates and even information on local curiosities.
Real Life Instagram
Real Life Instagram is a project that was launched by Brazilian artist Bruno Ribeiro. As Instagram is famous for its many filters that make your photographs look that much better, Bruno has gone around the city of London sticking up physical filters that everyone can take pictures of, pots up and hashtag #RealLifeInstagram. I love campaigns and projects like this, I think getting the public involved is the best way to spread the word.
Wonga Taking It Too Far
12 year old Dennis Earle, was contacted by popular loan company Wonga, urging him to take out a payday loan, even offering him a special discount. Its a very good thing Dennis is a sensible child and went to his parents first, I cant imagine how many other 12 year olds have put there parents in debt taking out a Wonga loan. Wonga really shouldn't be allowed to contact any under the age of 18, especially seeing as they clearly state that anyone wanting to take a loan has to be over the age of 18.
Bieber Selfies
With the success of application Instagram and young peoples sudden increase in vanity, the word 'selfie' has actually made it into the dictionary. With so many people taking selfies these days and Justin Bieber having so much influence over young people, it only make sense that he created his own app just for selfies. To be honest I don't see this becoming anything as big as Instagram, but it will probably become something very big for all the Justin Bieber fans out there.
The Glass Beach
Who would have ever thought that humans dumping massive amounts of rubbish on a beach would have such a beautiful outcome. Fort Bragg, California, formerly a dumping ground is now a glass beach. A section of the beach has been sectioned off to preserve its beauty. This is definitely one of earths hidden beauties that everyone should have on their bucket list.
