The Right Form-ewe-la for a Viral Campaign?
We’re doing our first ever poll today! It’s not a real poll, more a desperate plea from me to prove that I’m right and Richard isn’t quite so…
A friend of mine – @drgs100 – tweeted about this yesterday, and it made me laugh so much last night that I knew I wanted to share it with everyone to cheer up Monday morning.
Richard’s first response, “No way! But it’s so obviously fake!” Not in a mean way, just dismay at the fakeness and loss of a real opportunity to do something brilliant.
Now, yes it is, clearly, but I don’t think that matters all that much – it’s still really funny, so the question du jour: Does a viral have to be real, or does it just need to be funny/cool/interesting?
I don’t know how to make a real poll so you’ll just have to put your vote in the comments…
(To give this a touch more context (if you want it) we also loved the recent Vodafone viral- which whilst also clearly fake, is alledgedly perfectly possible with new advances in telemetry)

Real - If you've ever seen sheep dog trials on the telly then you know these guys have skills. I think they have speeded it up and maybe trimmed some of the edges with photoshop but I believe its real. Although that might be because I really want it to be real.
