Finally – the solution to the oversaturation of online video content.

Mag.ma is an aggregator of videos across media channels like YouTube, Hulu, Vimeo, TED, etc with a rating algorithm to cultivate the top videos across the board. The setup of the site is beautiful and stays true to its purpose – its there for you to watch videos. No sideways social media networks, online stores, blahbehty blah, though you can open an account to customize and personalize your channel list.

It’s wondeful. Check it out.

For marketers who insist on making “ads” for the online space, rather than engaging in an end-user considered relationship….this is how you do it.

Phillips takes on the world

In the spirit of “Will It Blend” – which I’m not sure ever got its due as a genius online sponsored “program” with its product as a bad-ass hero – Phillips/Tribal DDB has unleashed a new online campaign pitting their products against anything that anyone can dream of called Phillips Vs.

The campaign is running almost exclusively on Twitter.

Nice idea. Here’s one of the executions Tribal created to get the ball rolling. I like the energy they bring to the set-up. But the joyousness of everyone hugging at the end as though they’ve landed on Jupiter kills the fun for me. Stinks of insincerity. I’m sure they’ll temper it down as they produce more.

Penguin Books has launched a soooo cool website for kids to create their own stories and games for $10 bucks. Kids can even send them to their friends to read and play with and then store them on their virtual bookshelf.

The 2.0 of Art 101

Two art historians at MoMA and FIT have created a new online art institute – smART History.

Unsatisfied with dusty art history textbooks and the password-protected, one-way content from online resources – they’ve put their considerable talents, know-how, and insights into creating a multimedia “web-book” journey through the history of Western Art. And they make it freely available.

Their site features over 150 podcasts, 220 images, and links to world-class museums like the Louvre. Their podcasts discuss specific artists, themes, and historical movements. The conversations are spontaneous and they’re not afraid to disagree with each other or art history.

It’s thin from 1960 onwards…but it sounds like they will continue to add more work, more contributors, and even expand beyond Western Art.

Nice.
