WatchWatch
The music’s not helping either. But you could watch it on mute. Visually very cool, but it shows what a bad VO and music can do to an otherwise awesome commercial. adverve: A jaunt inside the wireless mind.

It's like video, but not.
Cinemagraphs are probably my new favorite thing.  adverve: Burberry is right on the mark with the release of their product photography as animated GIFs.
