It came to my attention that there is a new tool out there to connect with like-minded blogs, content and bloggers. While it is commonly assumed that the most popular way to network blog content and connect to like-minded bloggers is via blog roll, I think it is time to question whether it is really the best way.
Small Rivers, a group of Swiss-based enthusiasts, question this assumption by rolling out a new, more efficient way of networking blog posts. They have developed a plug which allows bloggers to get their posts and content connected to like-minded content elsewhere on the web. To give you a live example, I have posted a sticker to this post [below] by clicking which any blogger can contribute to my story by creating a new post on their blog and pasting the sticker on it. All done with a few clicks. Users, in turn, can browse similar posts right in the browser without leaving the site, by clicking the sticker, which will show a sidebar showing content matched with the same sticker. This is indeed a fresh and simple approach to content networking. While content consumption increasingly happens in multiple destinations, this solution allows to bring content back together into one place.
Try it yourself. WWF International and other NGOs are already actively linking their causes together. Check out the sticker below:

GoViral has ranked top 10 branded viral videos for April. To see the list for March, go here.
1. NIKE: SHOW YOUR FIVE
Nike has, with a little help from Wieden + Kennedy, London, done it again. No brand should really be in a top list consecutively, if it was not for the tremendous talent and effort that is being put into the majority of Nike’s campaigns. Nike launched a football tournament in UK and called for participants in major UK cities. This video is an ad for the events, and is filmed by various CCTV cameras to add to the authenticity of normal people playing street football. The video was originally done for TV, but has spread on the internet as well.

1. Sony VAIO: Mannequins on The Grand Central
Advertising is constantly developing to be up-to-date with consumer preferences and styles. This new campaign from the Sony Vaio brand probably got its inspiration from the recent T-Mobile campaign from the UK, but is very cool in itself. It features a series of videos filming mannequins interacting in the streets of New York, making a showpiece out of themselves and the new Sony Vaio Netbook. [click to continue…]
