Check out this “record player” iPhone app. The author, Theodore Watson, threw it together in one morning. I really like projects that get the point across quickly. It’s a build-to-think mode and sparks dialogue (like this blog post) that gets people thinking about how to use what’s around them.

Philips is creating some pretty trippy, unique, cinematic mini movies to promote their various products. It seems to be working – look at me wanting to show you these, they are very nice.
