    Seems like a lot of work / production value for a joke website, no?
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    If you click on the release date link, you will understand why. Pretty good marketing technique if you ask me.
    I know just enough to be dangerous, but don't tell my wife, she thinks I'm a genius. :D

    It's a long way to go for a travel ad.... and how many people, like me, never click that release date link and have no idea what the point of the site is?

    I thought it was pretty funny, especially the shaver :D

    I also like this marketing approach. Bob's right in that it won't catch everyone, but maybe they're looking for a certain kind of person, someone like myself who's instinctivly curious. After seeing all the features and laughing, my instinct was to click on the release date, thinking 'I wonder what they came up for this part'.

    Oddly enough, I'm now at least intrigued enough about Nova Scotia to at least research the place and see what it's about, because honestly before just now I've never even given it any thought.

    It is a long way to go for a trravel ad, but they at least get an A for effort and being original.

    Also, it's not really a travel, 'come here for vacation' ad so much as a 'come live here' ad.

    I hate websites that do everything in flash. So, I don't have a clue what you're talking about!
    Ludicrous gibs!

    How many other travel pitches have you seen discussed here? I think you judge a campaign by it's ability to generate a buzz. At least 6 people have visited from CP and commented on it so far with 97 views on the thread. It's almost guaranteed that the same thing is happening on other boards.

    I didn't care so much about the travel pitch. I have no interest in going to nova scotia. I do think the idea of that phone is hilarious though. Can you imagine people shaving themselves with their cellphones?
