Qualcomm: Best Bus Stop Ever

Waiting for the bus can be very boring. Imagine a Lamborghini picking you up. Wouldn't that be great? Qualcomm put up a poster on a bus stop with a URL and lines such as "Bored?", "In a hurry?" and "Seen it all?" and waited for people to use their mobile phones. Then the boredom ended. See what happens in the following video.

3Doodler: The world’s first 3D printing pen

The title is correct. This great little gadget allows you to draw in 3D. As you draw, plastic comes out of the 3Doodler pen, is cooled by an integrated fan, and solidifies right in front of you. You can draw on any surface and lift it up into the air to create your own 3D objects. Almost magical.







The 3Doodler was designed by Boston-based company WobbleWorks.

Ram Trucks: Farmer (Super Bowl 2013)

Powerfull still images. Emotion. And Paul Harvey's 1978 'So God Made a Farmer' Speech. Maybe this year's best Super Bowl spot.



The text:

And on the eighth day, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, "I need a caretaker." So God made a farmer.

God said, "I need somebody willing to get up before dawn, milk cows, work all day in the field, milk cows again, eat supper, then go to town and stay past midnight at a meeting of the school board." So God made a farmer.

God said, "I need somebody willing to sit up all night with a newborn colt and watch it die, then dry his eyes and say,'Maybe next year,' I need somebody who can shape an ax handle from an ash tree, shoe a horse with hunk of car tire, who can make a harness out hay wire, feed sacks and shoe scraps. Who, during planting time and harvest season will finish his 40-hour week by Tuesday noon and then, paining from tractor back, put in another 72 hours." So God made the farmer.

God said, "I need somebody strong enough to clear trees and heave bales, yet gentle enough to yean lambs and wean pigs and tend the pink-comb pullets, who will stop his mower for an hour to splint the leg of a meadowlark."

It had to be somebody who'd plow deep and straight and not cut corners. Somebody to seed, weed, feed, breed, and brake, and disk, and plow, and plant, and tie the fleece and strain the milk, . Somebody who'd bale a family together with the soft, strong bonds of sharing, who would laugh, and then sigh and then reply with smiling eyes when his son says that he wants to spend his life doing what Dad does. "So God made a farmer."

Tide: Miracle Stain (Super Bowl 2013)

A jersey with a miracle food stain that looks like the legendary 49ers quarterback Joe Montana becomes a media sensation. 49es fans line up to see it until a housewife wearing a Baltimore Ravens jersey uses Tide. Funny and true since Ravens won the game.

Schneider Beer: Forgiveness

Schneider Beer asks women to forgive men for their immaturity. For all the tacky compliments, the unbuttoned shirt as sex appeal device, for taking no as a yes, for playing an air guitar and for not washing hands. Men just Schneider Beer need maturation time.
