Halloween and The Cloud: Interactive Costume Experiment

cloudHappy Halloween! And look out, ’cause after a few years of taking Halloween easy, I am back!

Inspiration came early this year, with a brilliant storyline on the comic strip Bassist Wanted by Porter Mason, in which he managed to personify the entire Internet. (I’m turning The Cloud into a girl, though…I figure the Interwebs are gender-neutral.)

Any good social media project is integrated across multiple channels, right?

As part of my costume, I will “suggest” things people might like by handing out little custom business cards. They are covered with bitly URLs, of course, so I’ll know if anyone actually uses them. And I’ll invite people to come by this blog and post, too.

I hope someone gets good pictures of me!

Update: Pictures and results here!

  1. I don’t think I get it …

  2. Dad, it’s where all your data goes when you surf or store things on the Internet. Did you try reading the comic strip? Porter did a great job illustrating what the cloud does.

    For more about the suggestion cards, see the next blog post, specifically the comments, where CJ asked the same thing and I answered.
