Wrangler is cool

The Wrangler site has an interesting way of showing the latest collection.

The video is pretty sweet but it’s the transitions between the different scenes that bring it to life and is a nice point of differentiation.

Nice work Wrangler.

Westpac cash tank for smart phones

A really nice simple idea.

The fastest way to check what’s left in your ‘Cash Tank™’ (chosen bank account).

Like it.

Kia like lab

Not a new concept to provide a custom experience based on a feed from your Facebook profile, but this idea had so much potential when it comes to using your social data to predict what car might be best for you (especially when it has access to data like family members, locations, interests etc).

It was rather clunky but the integration was slick, it was just a shame that the end was a bit flat and it could’ve done a better job at closing the loop.

A nice and simple idea to crowd source the classic mix tape compilations.

Also a nice way to get introduced to some new music.

Australia Day 2012 comes with a YouTube sign along

This is annoying that it’s so catchy!

Currently only 307 views but no doubt this will be one that will do the rounds.

Let's do this - the Chevy Sonic adventure

The all-new Chevy Sonic is up for adventure. Turbocharged, connected and fun to drive.

So it’s all about adventures and firsts and the folk at Chevy Sonic have created a site to encourage behavior and engagement.

The most fun part is watching the car completing a few firsts:
