Wear it Wednesday.

$

I love nothing more than dressing than part, especially when the part includes @BreezebyKD. Self-made designer and material magician, Breeze by KD offers one of a kind gear made with blood, sweat and well, wine. She’s dressed the mess from Rhianna to Ke$ha, so when Twitter and Facebook sent me rivalry t’s, there’s was only one place to send the lot. Here’s what happens when you mix a social media geek with McGyver chic. Twitter vs. Facebook Coachella Gear Showdown…

Tidbit: Let’s Give it Up for Royal Caribbean

!

I’ve got a zero tolerance policy for bad cruise campaigns, but last nights Royal Caribbean spot mid-superbowl was one of the best cruise advertisements ever. The reason why? The “Sea is Calling” was not only simple, elegant and beautiful, it was also super-smart. Smart by not showing the eye-sore of a cruise ship at all, in the entire commercial. Add to the #brilldotcom factor, today’s takeover of the 42nd Street subway shuttle into a bad-ass boat. The #RoyalShuttle… hells yeah.

WOW. Facebook Takes Over Ibiza.

!

Ushuaïa Ibiza Beach Hotel announced the launch of their Facebook sharing initiative – a first for the hotel industry. Hotel guests, and everyone who attends the concerts (and they have a lot of concerts), will be given the option of wearing a slim RFID wristband synchronized to their Facebook profile. With a swipe of the wrist, they can check in, take pictures and post status according to where they are positioned in the hotel… how? With completely non-intrusive Facebook polls! Love it or hate it? Help me decide… (thanks to Nomad Lab for the tip-off)

Follow Friday: Me. You & DJ Wooooo [Yes, the worlds #1 virtual DJ]

?

DJ Woooo is a he. He is located in the Northeast, and splits his time between NYC and a rural town in New England. He works for startups in NYC developing mobile apps. He is the godfather of Turntable.fm aka the worlds #1 virtual DJ. He has over 1000 fans. He’s not into twitter, or soundcloud, although @NoPattern (the designer of Kaskade’s Dynasty album) supplied him with a killer avatar. He is not a music snob - he hopes to host Steve Aoki in his infamous turntable room and he loves a good Kid Cudi track. He was supposed to spend today on a boat, but opted to answer my questions instead. He is a gentlemen, both in and out of the booth and maybe I have a chat-room crush. And his name is Ethan. And he might be sitting next to me….. here’s my day with the Woooo (special thanks to all of those avatars who partook in the interview)
