Different perspective

"Inside Man" movie's last scene goes like this:
"...we see Frazier (Denzel Washington) go home to his girlfriend. While he takes off his gun and removes his badge from his pocket, he pulls out a diamond. He suddenly realizes how it got there. The person who had brushed against him earlier on that day in the bank was Russell (Clive Owen) himself, and somehow he had slipped the diamond into Frazier's pocket. Frazier smiles, realizing that he can now marry his girlfriend, as he has a proper ring to offer her."

When I watched this (all time favorite) movie, I marked this scene as "Typical Hollywood". When I was reading Readers Digest and stumble upon definition of one word - "Put Pocketing” means is the act of secretly putting money into someone’s pocket without them noticing.
This started in London as a publicity stunt by TalkTalk Communication Company.
Very nice and cleaver idea for publicity !
To make this reality, they hire (?) few former (?) Pick-Pocker and assign this responsibility to give money to common man in this hard time so that they can have few happy moments.
View their Video here.
If you caught them while putting money then they will take it back ! ( Funny segment is here)

The traditional five senses are sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste. Extrasensory perception (ESP) is known as Sixth Sense. This is not very common.

....until now. MIT group developed the device which reconize Sixth Sense. See Video here.
So you will wear your 6th sense device and you are ready to get all information.

After I saw this video, I thought if someone go to the resturant and waiter will know your medical record (e.g. high colestrol) and she will recomond you dish which has less colestrol or you can get information about all menu when you enter into resturant. May be Waiter can get information how much balance is on your credit card or how much cash do you have, so that they will know will you able to pay your bill ? or are you "good tipper" or not ?.....

I can clearly see that there is another business opportunity to launch a product where you can block your 6th Sense identity to others. So then people will more interested to procted their sixth sense identity or their social security number ?

So if you pay $350 you can get your 6th sense device.

On the side note, "Microsoft's Project Natal" which means Video game without controller. This is based on part of this 6th sense technology and "Project Natal" is already marked as best product of 2009.

So it's not too late, when you meet your friend in grocessary shop and he might surprized to know that you you don't thave your 6th sense device while shopping and ask you, "Where is your 6th Sense ?"

This is not a fake advertise. P&G wants Ambassador....yes Procter and Gamble wants Ambassador for their one major product which is in market for 25 years. Their work is to talk with the P&G customers and ask about the product experience. P&G will pay 10 K for this job. This job duration is from November 23 till December 31.

This Ambassador will have office in the New York City's Time square and enough space for customers to enjoy P &G’s product. After customer used this product; these ambassadors will interact with the customer and customers will share their experience about the product. This Ambassador will write all details and post all details on P&G site along with the photographs ( may be using this product !).

Do you really wonder why I use explanation Mark in my last sentence ?

...if so you might also wondered that what product P&G is promoting?

it's Charmin Tissue Paper !

This is called "Enjoy the Go" and this is second year of campaign. Charmin Representative told WSJ that, “This isn't your ordinary 9 AM - 5 PM job, and Charmin only asks that candidates should enjoy going to the bathroom so much - whether it be to catch up on reading or just enjoy some "me time" - they never want to leave.” WSJ Link

Not sure what P&G will achieve? Most probably cheap advertising… but really P&G need to do that ? I think people would prefer if P&G cut down Charmin’s cost and “enjoy” their product in their “favorite” place in the home. ;)

Here is the Link
