How to use Facebook to sell something?
Bob Dylan is using a very clever facebook application to promote his latest album.
The application allows you to add 10 messages which are then displayed on the sheets of paper in the famous music video of Bob Dylan’s Subterranean Homesick Blues.

Perspective: Simple, powerful and has a strong tie to the actual product .. i.e. the new album.




Hello!
As a blogger we’d like to give you the scoop on the launch of our latest up to the minute news and media portal. We’ve called it Scopical and because your a blogger we think you’ll find it a bit different. Scopical is a breaking source of news, media and analysis. Our content forms span textual, image and rich media and we draw this from a wide variety of providers including agencies, news pro’s, syndicators, bloggers and individuals everywhere.
The difference is our portal provides the tools and interactivity to add and submit the latest breaking news, media or analysis – be it text, an image or beginning November, video and audio content, it can be on Scopical. The best bit however is that Scopical will be the first company in Australia to offer a real financial return for anyone adding relevant news and media content. That means quality media of up to the minute news including image and video/audio content as well as reviews and opinion in text can earn a real return. We’re serious about news too, so serious that we have our own team of text/copy producers and feeds with larger news agencies throughout Australia. But, odds are as a blogger or freelancer, you, or someone you know will be there when it happens – we’re now giving everyone the tools to add and earn with Scopical and deliver the latest and most relevant news media in the country.
You can start adding your own quality content right now and if it fits with the national news, media or analysis outlook, we’ll publish it. Or, beginning November* when things really ramp up, we’ll give back up to 50% of our revenue to you! It’s easy, for text we’ll give back 25% of a pages revenue – if you add an image, video or audio that figure becomes 50% of a pages revenue. If you don’t want to write and just want others to use your image or media, no problem, add it to Stream our image and media portal, and if it gets used, the same applies – simple! You retain all copyright and you’re free to publish it anywhere, anytime.
We wont keep you much longer, but we’d be keen to see you and anyone you know giving Scopical a go! Our coverage is wide, from National and World News to Business&Finance, Sport, Politics, Tech/Media and Entertainment, we’ve got it. We’re balanced, objective and up to the minute when you need it. So if its news, reviews, photo and image or the latest in video and audio, if you’ve got it, we’ve got it, and we’ll deliver it with a return to you.

All the best!
Scopical News/Data Team.
