This is the amusing moment a Filipino man was seen riding along a road in a coffin-mobile. The intrepid motorist took the motorised white casket for a spin in Cebu City, the Philippines on November 14. The unidentified driver of the bizarre custom vehicle was seen doing the peace sign while passing other road users. Motorcycle Rider John Kiamco was able to record a video of their unusual meeting. He said: "I was not able to get the owner's name, but he seemed like a nice guy. Only a bit weird." "I think he made this by putting the white coffin around a modified motorcycle with two wheels at the rear." ''I think he owns a nearby car repair shop."

Good doggy!

The adorably priceless reaction is captured as three former college roommates spent weeks to plan a shocking reunion to surprise their best friend who moved to Chicago for her birthday last Friday (November 15). Maggie, Caroline, Erin, and Hanna were all roommates at Temple University in Philadelphia and best friends throughout college. When Erin moved away to Chicago a week after graduation, she worried her college best friends would miss her 23rd birthday. "Erin kept telling her new Chicago friends she wishes her roommates could be there for her birthday to celebrate since we'd been together for it for the last four years. We already had the plane tickets when she was saying that!" Hanna tells Newsflare, who filmed Erin's overjoyed response. "There wasn’t a dry eye in sight," said Hanna about the surprise that was a month in planning and kept closely guarded to maximize the impact.

On the world wide web, your brand revolves around a URL, logo, tagline, color palette, font, images, etc., but when your audience is no longer seeing your content, traditional brand elements become invisible. In a voice first environment, when your audience just asks for what they want, they expect the answer to be returned verbally. In a voice first world, what does your brand look like, (I mean, sound like)? In this talk, I explore the components of a verbal brand, how to prepare for the shift from written content to verbal content, as well as the future of voice technology and how to prepare for it.”

You might love your website — but does your target market? More importantly, are the people you seek to serve actually converting in terms of your website’s goals? It’s easy to get caught up in bias when it comes to a project that you’re closely involved with. One way to get around this involves inviting unbiased third parties to try using your website, while narrating their experience.
