Simple trick to get more twitter followers

If you use twitter to promote your business or services or are just friend hungry you probably could use more twitter followers. Whilst I don’t condone spamming there is certainly something to be said for getting your tweets read by as many people as possible. A method a lot of people use is to follow as many people as they can and then wait a while and unfollow the ones that don’t follow them back. That’s pretty effective, but not much fun.

Geordie Shore – TV Genius or Utter Rubbish?

Having just watched the first episode of Geordie shore as a direct result of all the ‘negative’ media coverage, I was left amazed, appalled and itching for the next episode. The show is a spin-off of Jersey Shore, its American counterpart, but with the self-obsessed, loud-mouthed Jersey folk replaced by their equals from Newcastle. Many have been quick to jump on the show for mis-representing geordies and they definitely have a point. The cast are fairly disgusting and some of what most people hate about modern British culture, however at the same time watching them is addictive and highly entertaining.

How to ‘go viral’ – Marketing

They’re Gonna Taste Great… The Frosties Kid

Frosties Kid

Sven or Matthew?

Back in 2006 a young lad by the name of Matthew Harban or Sven (depending on the source) was the enthusiastic star of a rather bizarre Frosties Advert. Matthew/Sven came across as somewhat keen during the Ad and the fact that anyone watching British TV was forced to re-listen to his “They’re gonna taste greaaate!” refrain every 20 minutes didn’t do him any favors.

How to make an autotune video

Antoine Dodson

Auto-tuned

‘Auto-tune’ videos hit the limelight in 2010 due to Youtube hits such as ‘Bed Intruder’ or ‘Charlie Bit Me Auto-tuned’ But its certainly not a new thing. Earlier incarnations of voice alteration such as the vocoder have been around in popular music since the 50′s and in more recent times ‘pitch correction’ is used and overused by many of the talentless fashion models that fill up the music charts.
