Do you enjoy being on facebook EVERYWHERE while listening to music, but hate lugging around a computer? Voila! Here's an iPhone.
Or do you prefer letting the world know about what sandwich you're eating this particular moment, while stalking celebrities (because congratulations, you've finally outgrown myspace) --well then, have a Twitter.
Or if you're like me--do you enjoy watching videos on the internet, having a hearty laugh, but hate wasting your time on things that might not be funny?
Well then, 5secondfilms might be your cuppatea.
Just like the name says, they are five second films. That's right. Five seconds. (Plus a 3 second introduction if you really want to get technical). It's quite simple. You click, you watch, if it's funny, you laugh. If it's not--then well, at least it was only five seconds of your life. Plus you can easily click on the next video and see if that'll tickle your funny bone instead--because after all, it's only five seconds! It's quick, it's easy, and if my opinion serves me right, it's pretty entertaining.
These guys have an official website plus a youtube channel.
I haven't watched all of their stuff yet--but I've seen quite a few. I've found that they're mostly hits or misses. But I'm not that bitter about the misses, because like I said--they're only five seconds out of my life. From a creative standpoint, it's a pretty ingenious idea. These guys are able to create a lot of videos at once--because each is so short--and the possibilities are endless since there isn't a whole lot of context that's necessary.
This video in particular deserves some sort of praise for making me go from laughter to disgust in the blink of an eye. Bravo:
I cracked up at that video. Best five seconds I've ever spent online!
