The best 120 seconds on the web


My nomination for the best 120 seconds on the web goes to Honda
for their innovative commercial currently being shown in the UK.  You can
find the Advert here at
the Honda UK site
.  But it's also been mirrored at
this site
Because I believe that they credit
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
as one of the inspirations for their commercial,
it's interesting to note the coincidence that I bought Chitty about a week ago
to watch with my wife's niece and nephew.  So if you're a Chitty fan, check
it out.  If you're not a Chitty fan, you should be.  :)   
Did you know that Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was written by Ian Fleming, who wrote
the James Bond novels?   And the movie, was produced by Broccoli who
has produced many of the Bond movies.  But back to the Honda advert.  Here's
an article on the Honda ad on
Slate.

Not much time for technology investigations these days. Several things to update. Google seems to be varying the search results on daily basis. I wonder are they sort of randomizing the top results so as to make it more difficult to manipulate the outcome. It would be frustrating if one day you searched for something, found it, and then could not repeat your search the next day.
