Having fun at work...

[almostwitty]

I've worked within new media companies for just over a decade, and no office I've been in has come close to having as much fun as the staff at Connected Ventures, according to this new video which has apparently sparked yet another entry to the trendy urban lexicon, lip dub.

Maybe it's because UK new media is just too dour to do things as silly. Maybe it's because all the new media companies I've worked for were based in either way-too-posh rented offices, or just run-of-the-mill offices. Maybe I'm just too old for the onset of true citizen-generated video content. Maybe it's just me.

Stick with the clip, it does become one of the silliest, joyful and yet easy-to-do videos I've seen. Then again, I'm a huge fan of miming. Even has shades of Morecambe & Wise in it.

There's another track I need to add to my iTunes...

Thanks, worldmegan!

Well, you only added me about 10 minutes ago it would seem! Are you asking why i haven't friended you, or are you asking who I am? Because sometimes even I don't know ;-)

nono, nononono, I can understand why you haven't friended ME, I don't know you. This is so weird. I logged on this morning as normal, viewed my friends page, and nestled in amongst all the other entries was this one. Immediately, I thought ... mweugh? Who? I viewed the video, I liked the video, but still ... no idea who you were. And yet, there you were, plain as day, on my friends list. So I looked at your profile, noticed all of those things mentioned above ... still no memory of adding you as a friend.

I can only presume that I did so inadvertently, by clicking on a link accidentally. I didn't think that was possible. Either that or I'm bipolar and these lapses in my memory are actually when Stavros takes over.

I think the moments when Stavros takes over are called schizophrenia. Or Cylonitis.

Now when Davros takes over, that's a whole different story.

Anyway, my name is Andrew and welcome to my LJ! May you have a great stay here and I'll add you too...
