60. Obama Utilized Social
Obama gained 5 million supporters in other social
networks.
Obama maintained a profile in more than 15 online
communities, including BlackPlanet, a MySpace for African
Americans, and Eons, a Facebook for baby boomers.
On Facebook, where about 3.2 million (during the campaign)
signed up as his supporters, a group called Students for
Barack Obama was created in July 2007.
It was so effective at energizing college-age voters that senior
aides made it an official part of the campaign the
following spring.
And Facebook users did vote: On Facebook's Election 2008
page, which listed an 800 number to call for voting problems,
more than 5.4 million users clicked on an “I Votedquot; button to
let their Facebook friends know that they made it to the polls

65. Will It Blend
George Wright, the marketing director for Blendtec, had no background in
consumer marketing before this event.
He visited the company's testing room and saw the guys blending 2x2 wood
pieces with the blender and thought, quot;People have to see this.quot;
First 5 videos cost $50 to create. The videos were picked up by Digg.com, and
scored 6 million views in the first week. George Wright rushed to tell the CEO
who did not even know that YouTube existed.
The videos were picked up by VH1 and The Today Show. Then Jay Leno had
him on The Tonight Show.
Soon, the YouTube videos had been viewed 60 million times and sales, despite
the blender's $399 price tag, have been up by 20% ever since.
