'Interactive' game review that changes as you read it. →
Among the most interesting things about criticism are the possibilities to make the critique its own little work of art.

Television-tagging iPhone application IntoNow has partnered with PepsiCo in a promotion that will reward app users with a free soda for tagging the drink-maker’s new Pepsi MAX spot.
“The basic concept is to find the Pepsi MAX commercial, tag it and select a store,” IntoNow founder and CEO Adam Cahan explains.
IntoNow will generate a unique digital coupon for the first 50,000 IntoNow users who tag the spot. The coupon can be scanned and redeemed, just like a gift card, at Target or CVS stores.

Not that everyone hasn’t linked this already, but come on, a music video that captures nostalgia perfectly by integrating images from your own past? The next year will be full of people trying to do their own spin on this idea.
