Goggle's Used-Generated Gmail Video

Aug 30

Goggle did a fun promotion asking Gmail users to submit a little snippet of video that passed the Gmail logo from left to right on the camera. They got thousands of submissions and compiled many of them into this clip. (If you can’t see the embedded video, click here.)

It would be so cool to do something like this with employees and HR could take the lead. This video has a real teamwork element to it — the envelope “passes” from one hand to the next. If you’re really into teamwork, maybe you could use it as a communication device, and have people pass something. (Or, to be funny, you could “pass the buck.”) Make it highly visual and get your employees to play along. They’re already posting user-generated video. How about letting them play along at work?
