RSS Reader Demo - Is It Creepy, Funny, Or Informative?

Permenant Link To: RSS Reader Demo - Is It Creepy, Funny, Or Informative?


You know a product demo has done an effective job when it's left a lasting impression with you. But are they supposed to creep you out too?

Watch this Flash demo of a new RSS reader from the folks at SBC (the guys who provide telephone service for some of us here in the States). Judge for yourself.

Personally, I loved it, and thought it was pretty creative, but as I was watching it I kept thinking, this is really kind of weird.

What do you think?

BTW, here's a link to the actual homepage of the product, in case you'd like more information (the site is creative, but kind of confusing).

Keep it Clean.
Foul and offensive language is not only moronic and childish, but any posts containing it WILL be deleted!
Play Nice.
Posts containing personal attacks of any kind will be deleted. If you disagree with someone's opinion, provide an opposing one, without attacking the person. For example, "Derek, your stance on eating doughnuts will harm future generations." Not, "Derek, you're an idiot, and your stance on eating doughnuts is the dumbest thing I've ever heard..."

Once again, since this site carries my name, posts containing religious and/or political views (nice or not) will be deleted.
Stay on Topic - Where Possible.
I know it's easy to get off on another tangent, and it's not really that big of a deal, but try to confine your comments to the discussion at hand. :)
