[Trailhead?] Promotion of an IM Service?
Trailhead for an ARG or just an ad?

A friend sent this to me: http://vimeo.com/1693445?pg=embed&sec=1693445#success


A vid of a chick speaking in Japanese and then switching to English talking about a clown in a bikini. It just looks like an advertisement to me but there seems to be a weird Alien type of head/face off in the bushes. There's another vid also about saving pets. I guess the vids are to promote an IM service but they looked kind of strange to me, especially that alien face in the background. Looked kind of creepy but I'm probably wrong.

[edit - just added a description to the thread title so this is easier to find - kona]

Well the title of the video page you linked is "MeGlobe Viral"

And it leads me to this social networking/Multilingual Messenger site www.meglobe.com

Yeah, I just thought there might be more to it because of the style the vids are shot in and the wierd image.

Yeah could be lol. I just thought I'd point out who/which site or company was running it.

It's definitely a viral as it says so, so perhaps there is more than just the videos.

That definitely looks like alien eyes, but they move slightly at some point when the wind blows so I think it might just be something in the background that has a striking resemblance to alien eyes. Weird, I know, but possible.

You have sharp eyes, I didn't notice the movement I'll go back and take another look.

It just looks like a plant to me...the eyes are leaves, and since it's so sunny you can't really see the stem.
