21 Balançoires
The new way to swing – this installation combines childhood fun with the spirit of cooperation to create something that sounds great.
A little bit risqué
Although I wouldn’t recommend watching this video at work, it is a very cool video. Who would have thought that attaching a camera to a hula hoop would make for such a great video.
We are all connected
A great video by World Wildlife Foundation with a simple message.
The Invisible Bicycle Helmet
Here is a great story about two entrepreneurs that rejected the status quo when it comes to bike helmets.

The blue
When looking to create a film about tuna, of all things, this group discovered something a little bit more film worthy. Kudos to the film maker for building a camera rig that could be towed behind a boat.
A video about videos
Some perspectives on “viral videos” – all in all, it makes me want to buy a camera and start shooting.
#RISEABOVE Isolation
This is a great story sponsored by Nike’s Jordan brand. Below is just one video in a series found on Michael Jordan’s youtube channel.

Google & Lego join forces.
Google & Lego have joined forces to celebrate Lego’s 50th anniversary in Australia. Using Google Chrome, you can now build 3D Lego objects and place them on the map.
Not sure what to build? Well you can easily browse any of the creations that have already been built by others.
I think it is pretty amazing how the newest in Google’s technology can bring a sense of nostalgia. Feel free to take a look at the site here. Right now they have Australia and New Zealand as available locations to build upon, with plans to expand globally.
