Corporate Madness - Riding the Wave or Rave?

Corporate Madness - Riding the Wave or Rave?

I just finished a book called Newsjacking: How to Inject your Ideas into a Breaking News Story and Generate Tons of Media Coverage by David Meerman Scott and it reminded me of a some very funny videos I saw a couple of years ago before he became famous in the marketing world.

I think Scott was horsing around back then trying to figure out a way to break out of the corporate environment to live the author/speaker life, and still create a buzz for the launch of his book, World Wide Rave: Creating Triggers that Get Millions of People to Spread Your Ideas and Share Your Stories.

This kind of quirky humor may not be for everybody, but after doing a discussion forum on Objectivism for a few years, I found these videos hilarious. Still do.
