My friend Sunil forwarded me this video of a clever and comically intrusive ad campaign put on by Vancouver-based Science World. It gets people thinking. Makes me wonder then…how long does it take for farts is dissipate?

I was teasing BL that “all I ever do,” online, “I do it for her.” And it is true! I was totally trying to make My ooVoo Day appealing enough and cool enough for her… and it worked! ooVoo is our client through crayon LLC, our direct client. Even so, we here at AHLLC have been working our ooVoos off for ooVoo in general and My ooVoo Day in particular. You can see that I was DC man on the spot last week in support of Bob Garfield. In fact, you can see a short video of Bob in the office he used over at MSHC Partners, a longer video of part of Bob Garfield’s My ooVoo Day get-together, and some candid shots taken with my cool Nokia n95. Well, back to BL… she likes it! BL Ochman likes it! Check this out, excerpted from her blog: Oovoo and Other Video Call Sites Are Big Fun - Try Them!

So I figured I’d check out this new site called TriviaOnNet.com. It’s made by Trivya and it’s addictive in a fun way. It’s sort of like an online game show where you got a limited amount of seconds to answer topical trivia questions. Get the most right, you win. They call this type of gaming casual gaming.

Playing trivia on the web is pretty cool but the real magic happens when you play it from within Facebook with the Trivya Facebook Application. And, when you sign up, Trivya spots you $5. And, once you get going and getting your boat legs, you’re eligible to sign up for the $10,000 trivia tournament this March.

When I played, the subject I’ve picked is sports and I’m doing somewhat well. But not evidently well enough because I keep coming in second. Or third… But you should check it out because I am sure you’re do better than me.  Both TriviaOnNet.com and the Trivya Facebook Application have the categories of sports, entertainment, and music. You can play for free - which I recommend for people starting out. Or you can pay and play and get paid — win!

They’ve come up with 500,000 questions. That’s right. Half a million. I remember Trivial Pursuit from the 1980’s and if you played enough, you’d start to get the same questions twice. Not with TriviaOnNet. That makes it that much better.

Now I just have to find a way to win.
