"I′m a sucker for projects where interactive media meets the real world and inspires or makes a difference. Tribe Wanted is just such an initiative. It brings people together on-line and on-the-ground - including on a remote island - to tackle the biggest issues of our day in a totally immersed, committed, fun, human way. How the project is run and presented online shows a very thoughtful, skillful approach to networked media"

A quest for google’s attention

Filed Under The ramblings of a creative consultant

I have heard many people state that they believe that they have an idea which they believe is good enough to gain the attention of the internet powerhouse known as google which would eventually lead to google buying the idea for millions. We all have our dreams and yet for most people that is what they remain, just dreams. However, one guy believes that his idea is good enough for the eyes of google and he has set about, with intention to gain the attention of google - to get that meeting which would enable him to sell his idea to google and he is doing it all online, for you to watch.

This is a great little site. The actual idea is a closely guarded secret however he is building a team, he flew to googleplex and he sat in their reception until he got a meeting with them, which he eventually got and is planned for 14 days time. I love it when people have a dream and they just completely and utterly go for it and ‘Can google hear me?’ really represents that. I wish this guy well.
