The Google Alphabet: An Autocomplete Snapshot From A to Z

The Google Alphabet: An Autocomplete Snapshot From A to Z:

Google Instant search results appear the moment you begin typing a search term. Here’s how it responds to each letter of the alphabet.

As interesting as this is, I’d rather see how the auto-fills change based on location of IP address/search history/etc. It’d reveal how priorities and interests are different between cultures.

Budweiser Buddy Cup: Budweiser just came out with cups that automatically friend two people when they cheers. Because Facebook friends aren’t superficial enough already… But really, the technology backing the product is pretty cool.

Whiskey barrels are shaken occasionally to speed up the aging process, which is a step that requires a lot of man-power. Hudson Whiskey doesn’t have a lot of people, so they brought in a trunk full of bass speakers, hooked them up around the barrel room, and turned them on. The vibrations from the bass shake the barrels and create the interactions between the wood and the spirit. Hands down the best/coolest creative solution I’ve seen in a long time. Hudson Whiskey - Rockstar status.

Columbia Records released the track list for the new Daft Punk album via Vine. It’s a pretty creative, cheap, and painless use of the publishing platform, and it’s helped raise the already crazy hype around the new album.

You May Leave Boston, But Boston Never Leaves You:

Millions of Americans came of age at Boston’s many colleges and universities. For them, Monday’s tragedy is a reminder of how much the city still means.

Jay Shells marks intersections that are called out in rap songs with signs printed with the corresponding lyrics . As an avid rap fan, history buff, and pop culture addict, I think it’s a dope way of adding a little bit more color and meaning to the streets we all walk through every day.

Last week in Egypt, a group of Russian photographers risked facing 1-3 years imprisonment to climb the Great Pyramid of Giza and take the stunning picture above. Sometimes pushing (and crossing) boundaries results in some pretty awe-inspiring stuff.

Facebook timeline means you can publish your entire history - so why not make sure your product has one? And if you want it to stretch back to Abraham Lincoln, no one is stopping you. So Emergen-C incorporated themselves into American history. A clever and intelligent use of features on the Facebook platform that invites discovery and further interaction with the brand without demanding it. Unfortunately there wasn’t a ton of exposure and the creative effort got lost in the annals of history.
