Oh, whoa is ... Wayfaring
There was a bunch of buzz around the Google Map Mash-Ups last year, and now a company has popped up that enables any joe-on-the-street to create their own maps. Its very cool, and something that i can see being addictive. Its users taking control of the maps...

More Mash-Up Fun
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles take on Young Jeezy and Hova. Once again, very ingenius and certainly not what the original gang had in mind.

Burger King... Go F$#@ Yourself
Ok, its not exactly what i had in mind when i said that fans would create ads that reflected their love of brands, but i also couldn't stop laughing when i saw this...
Matador Records and You Tube
This is a great promotion - one to get fans to create the videos for their favorite artists. This has lots of legs and is definitely going to be done for every artist by this time next year...

Matador Records has this act, Pretty Girls Graves. Not a bad band to start with, but the fans will tell us for sure.
