[Flight of the Conchords: He Maybe Did]
As an antipodean with an unusual name I’ve always had palpitations when calling mobiles and hearing “Your call is being answered by SpinVox”. Any message left by me will undoubtedly begin
“Hi it’s durka”
and involve such embarassing topics as
“The table’s booked for sex“
Perhaps sensing their role in creating so called accent self loathing SpinVox has started the Love Your Accent campaign utilising the new audio clip feature on Moblog.
Call 0151 266 8283 and tell them which accents you love (or hate) the most, and why, and there’s a host of goodies up for grabs.
NOICE WUN GOIS.
Moblog Beta: one of my favourite sites is having a makeover
One of my favourite images from a Shiny moblogging competition we ran
I am a huge fan of Moblog and they’ve had a proper Gok-style revamp; losing UK from their name, updating the site, and shifting to a new URL.
I can’t tell you how many times I present Moblog to agencies and brands jumping up and down with excitement and trying to demonstrate the potential to use for brand activity, particularly when they want an interactive UGC element to it.
Highlights of the new Moblog include:
- Audio Blogging: (courtesy of other demo fave, SpinVox)
- Domains: run your moblog from your own URL
- Maps: every Moblog user now has their own map which they can add their posts to either manually, or if you use a geotagging handset, automatically
