A hilarious viral marketing film by BMW:

“Last November, I traveled to Oberpfaffelbachen, Bavaria to film a documentary about a small village and their Rampenfest. What is Rampenfest?

Again, Flo and I discovered a product probably unknown amongst earths population: Red Bull Cola. We discovered the drink in Switzerland today and are amazed! The taste is fresh, with a quench of lime and herbs. Tasty!

So, why a cola from Red Bull? Here’s the official answer:

“Well, why not? We simply believe that a cola should be made of ingredients from natural sources. Just like the good old days. Red Bull Cola can do without a secret formula. All our ingredients are listed on the back of the can. Thanks to its special recipe, Red Bull Cola is not only a cola, but a cola of a special kind: strong and natural.”

St. Sin N° 1 targets the cause without masking scents. Alcohol breath is gone – as long as no further alcohol is consumed. Incidentally, St. Sin N° 1 is a dextrose candy with an “energy drink” flavor that tastes great.

Prepare for Awesome! iGianMC discovered, that if you add &fmt=18 to any YouTube URL, the video plays in significantly higher quality. Here are before/after screenshots:

Porsche Cayenne GTS in Normal Quality:

Porsche Cayenne GTS in High Quality (adding &fmt=18 to URL):

The best and easiest way to tell the difference between standard and high quality is to make the videos play in full screen. The higher quality movies play at larger size and quality. Additionally, a link appears under the video allowing you to switch back to standard quality.

The Pacemaker device hit the Sonar, a multimedial music fair in Barcelona, like a shooting star in 2007. Now in 2008, the handheld device which appears like a dj-iPod with extremely professional functionalities is finally available. The iTunes-like pendant and management software – The Pacemaker Editor – is available for free and enables its users to mix sets at an ease never experienced. Forget two channels. There is only one linear and visual sound channel which makes it very easy to set up mixes by drag & drop usability with automatic beat matching and many more effects. Looks good, sounds good, feels good.

The online pacemaker community brings to you a broad variety of mixes that can be listen to like a common internet radio. After a quick registration, the pacemaker software enables you to upload your mixes and handles all the hustles of encoding, trackmarking, etc. Definitely worth a try for those music lovers and djs out there.
