It was 1907 - chew on that for a second. Look at everything else that was done, even up till 1920 and compare it to this. The quality is quite good, and yes, the color was hand painted.

Thoughts on Social Media
Tweet
"After listening to all (well) authority in social media I come to a rather uncomfortable insight. Nobody knows a damn thing about it."
- kontaktmannen.wordpress.com
"Stop talking about Twitter. Stop talking about Facebook. Stop talking about the blogosphere, user-generated content and future payment models. [...] Think instead of the content. Is there something you want to tell? "
- Mattias Göransson, Magasinetfilter.se
"The foundation and core of what social media is, consists of the five C’s. Conversation, community, commenting, collaboration and contribution. These are the five fundamentals that companies and marketers must understand to be able to successfully market on the social web."

10 Most Unfortunate Product Names
Tweet
No 10. Shitto is an allegedly delicious Ghanaian sauce with a name that makes Americans laugh, while everyone in Ghana seems to love it.
No 9. Sars. This drink from New Zealand shares its name with SARS: Severe acute respiratory syndrome.
No 8. Australian repellent "used by the armed forces." They surely need it.
No 7. Golden Gaytime is an iconic ice-cream in Australia, its name survived intact despite the homosexual connotations in modern decades. The company just decided to play up the camp name with the boxes, holding the words "4 chances to have a gay time."
Here's a classic Golden Gaytime TV ad from the 80s, "Let the Gaytimes roll!"
No 6. Vergina (beer)
No 5. Pee Cola, a soft drink from Ghana.
No 4. Jussipussi. So that's how finnish bread taste like.
No 3. Megapussi (potato chips). Priceless.
No 2. Cock flavoured mix (soup). Mmmmm spicy!
No 1. Ayds (diet candy). Ayds (pronounced "AIDS") was a diet candy from the 1980s. Years later, the name would have its current meaning.

Samsung Claymation Holographs
Tweet
Samsung UK’s latest online advertisign campaign features two trendy laptops at a trade fair. The Samsung Mini Notebook N310 appears in blue and red, with a crazy hologram thing set up, supporting two competitive and hostile claymation characters. The cute blue woman and the tap dancing tie-wearing red guy appear at first to get along. But the trade show table turns into a battle of wills, with the blue woman retaining the upper hand.
Viral Comments: T-Shirt Amazon top seller
Tweet
There is a T-Shirt on amazon which sales have grown 2300% to become one of their top sellers. This is one of those random viral events that would certainly be difficult to plan. The T-shirt got a reasonably humourous first review and from then on seems to have picked a little cult following of people leaving further comments. The first review gave the shirt five stars, saying it “Fits my girth frame, has wolves on it, attracts women” but “cannot see wolves with arms crossed”.
Since then comments such as “the Three Wolf Moon T-Shirt gave me a +10 resistance to energy attacks, +8 Strength… and I have successfully solved 7 crimes in my city”.
The T-shirt is currently the top selling item in Amazon’s clothing store. You can check it out here.
This is not the first time comedy reviews on Amazon have gone viral. In 2006, there were more than a thousand reviews for Tuscan Whole Milk.
