Blogbuzzter #4: popcorn, iPod and Firefox Download Day

2008-07-01 by Cordula

Another month has passed and it’s time for our Blogbuzzter again. Here are the best buzzes of the last four weeks:

  • Firefox Download Day: On June 17 Firefox launched its third version and tried to beat a world software download record.
  • The exotic buzz of the month comes from China again, and it’s all about the Olympic Games, of course. Some Chinese souvenir sellers have their own ideas of how to prepare themselves for the great event: live goldfish key chains. I’m not sure that the RSPCA would be happy about that…

Blogbuzzter #3: Sex and the City, Levi’s and Pork and Beans

2008-05-30 by Cordula

May is nearly over, so it’s time again to treat you to our blogbuzzter! The latest buzz is of course the launch of the

  • “Sex and the City” film: Long-awaited, the movie will finally come to US cinemas today, and the most burning question of its fans will be answered: Will Carry marry Mr Big? Get carried away, guys!
  • Levi’s backflip: Sport is in. Not only did we get to see Kobe Bryant stunt-jumping over a pool full of living snakes, but these guys also amused us by jumping into a pair of Levi’s. Hats off!
  • Pork and beans: The latest clip by Weezer brings back all the YouTube stars that we met in the South Park video: Numa Numa Guy, Afro Ninja, Leave Britney Alone, Chocolate Rain, Daft Hands…
  • Facebook in real life: What would you do if people you haven’t met in decades started poking you and leaving messages on your front door? Hmm… reality can be scary sometimes.
  • The exotic buzz of the month: Not a pleasant occasion, but an encouraging buzz. After the disastrous earthquake in China a wave of support rolled through the Chinese web. Bloggers adopted a banner to show their solidarity with the victims, and during 3 days of national mourning all major Chinese portals sites appeared in black and white. Ever wondered what patriotism meant?


Blogbuzzter #2: MSN, Greenpeace and Kobe Bryant

2008-05-05 by Cordula

Another buzz-filled month has passed and it’s time for our second blogbuzzter:

  • MSN loves China: Chinese patriots found an unusual way of responding to the anti-China hype in Western media about the Olympic torch relay and the Tibet conflict by demonstrating their love of their country on MSN.
  • Greenpeace Onslaughter: The conservation organisation beat Dove at their own game by alluding to the brand’s video and putting a sensitive subject on the agenda: the use of palm oil in cosmetics.
  • Kobe Bryant: The basketball star’s unrealistic jump over an Aston Martin left many people baffled. Guys, of course it’s a fake - Kobe would never risk his health and career for an ad!
  • April fool’s jokes: There were plenty of them, and many excellent ones. We especially loved Google’s fake project “Virgle” and the punch-in-the-face service…
  • The exotic buzz of the month: You know American Idol? In France this programme is called La nouvelle star and it is just as hilarious sometimes. Cindy Sander for example did not give up when she had to leave the show and released a song called Papillon de Lumière (Butterfly of light, ehemm…) – and France has been laughing ever since.


Blogbuzzter #1

2008-04-01 by Cordula

Choosing topics for BuzzParadise is always hard — there is such a lot of interesting stuff on the web we would like to tell you about! That is why from now on we are going to regularly present you a couple of the best buzzes of the last weeks, starting with this month which provided a lot of exciting buzzes:

  • The wildlife of an idea: the advertising agency Callegari Berville Grey shortened an amateur video filmed in Krüger national park and added their own comments to give it a new meaning… definitely worth watching!

  • My talking stain: Tide’s funny personalisable video ads reached record view numbers on YouTube.
  • Guitar Hero III: The video game producer Activision encourages everyone to demonstrate their talent as air guitarists and become the star of the game’s latest version.

And finally, a view on the world: in France, French blogger Eric Dupin was summoned before a court because of his French digg-like site fuzz.fr. One of the links posted on the site directed to information about a French actor who claimed his privacy had not been respected. The site was closed down and the blogger was condemned to pay a fine. The whole affair caused outrage in the blogosphere and led to a huge wave of support for Eric.

That’s it from us for today — but don’t forget to check out our next blogbuzzter!
