Aussie Agency Xmas Messages (so far)

We've seen the W+K ones from London and Amsterdam... here are a few from Australia. The first is from Host Sydney and is based around a Christmas tree that you post tweets on as decorations. The second is from The Jamboree and is a bit out there as it's all about Christmas 'Carols'. The third is from Euro Sydney that is based on the Angry Birds app, but using staff faces as the birds. Check 'em out.

Hosts Christmas Message is kinda cool - bit like W+K London's one

From The Jamboree - only about 8 Carols (bugger)

Euro's Angry Birds effort - cool

Power Pinata

Vodafone Australia have launched a new campaign called Power Pinata. Users 'like' their facebook page and the join a queue to select a 'whack' method from an automated robot holding a baseball bat. When it's your turn you watch live as the robot gives the pinata a smash. Once it's smashed open a flood of prizes will spill out... Loved the idea but the user experience is a bit low. I expected my robot 'smash' to be hard - instead it was a mere tap (if that). Shame as I was expecting a real smash :) Check it out here.

5 Gum online hunt

Personally I am a bit over online treasure hunts. Now this site just launched for Wrigley's Limited Edition 5 Gum Tin. It's eerily close to the M&M;'s Canada: Find Red campaign. You decide. Both are fun campaigns.

Live Christmas cards

Another online campaign that taps into the live element. This time it's the Swedish Post that helps you create your own unique Christmas postcard. They set up 4 live camera's on mountain Funasdalsberget to create a scenic setting, including snow and reindeers. You can make screenshots and send them as a physical postcard. Happy card hunting!

Facebook book

A facebook book. Everyone has had this idea - but great to see it done so well. If anyone was lucky enough to get one please post/comment and show us.

When Facebook becomes a book from Siavosh Zabeti on Vimeo.

I want one. Maybe some smart cookie can create an app for us to do it for us all?? Let us know?
