I know this is a little old now, but in case you haven't seen it, Bill Gates gave his final keynote at CES a couple weeks ago. For those you who have attended before, you know that his keynotes have been hit or miss. The highlights included the launch of the XBox while the low-lights included a few BSOD (Blue Screens of Death) and who could forget Microsoft BOB.
This year, though, he may have sealed his legacy, not as a technology pioneer, but as a comedian. This video is hilarious. (Not hysterical. Ask Paul Corson from QAD. He was an English major and that was one of his pet peeves.)
The video looks forward to his last day at Microsoft and what it will be like. It includes cameos by a whole bunch of folks including: Brian Williams, Matthew McConaughey, Hillary Clinton, Jay-Z, and others. Enjoy!
And while you are at it, check out these two videos that need to be resurrected and passed around. This first one shows you just how marketing can eff up a product!!!
And this one shows you that Microsoft really does have a sense of humor... The Microsoft WSYP Program (We Share Your Pain)
For those of you wondering what is up, I learned how to embed video!!! And I have been thinking a lot about viral marketing. These are all great examples of viral marketing!!! More on that in the future.
