I would like a job at Connected Ventures

Lip Dub - Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger from amandalynferri and Vimeo.

I don't know where you work, but things like this don't happen "one night after work" where I make my living.

I mean, we try to have as much fun as possible but the collaborative

lip syncing video project just hasn't hit the newsroom floor (go

figure!).  And more bad news for all of us, there are no jobs available at Connected Ventures (nonetheless, big thx to Ernie for the link ;-).

I love this video! I actually first saw it on Mikey Laz's blog a week or two ago and I still can't stop watching it. Plus it's just a great song too, I ended up throwing a buck into the jukebox at a bar over the weekend so I could hear it!

Your not the only one who wants a job there Amber. Looks like a fun place to work at! I hope my next job is at place like this, but I'm pretty doubtful :-(

That has been one of my favorite videos from the first time I saw it a few months ago. And I've been checking every week to see if they ever had a vacancy for a web writer posted on their jobs section...so far, no luck. =(

I think this should be filed under 'how to run a successful and creative business'. It is seriously stuff like this that enables the willing members of the company to grow as a team. I really wish i could get it across to my bosses that if they just chill out a bit then everyone would be a bit more productive. I don't think thats going to happen anytime soon though.

I can only hope to have a staff that happy to be working together one day... That was absolutely awesome!

Fun video. The term "lip dub" is kind of irritating though. Is there something wrong with "lip sync?" "What an ethnically diverse group. NOT!" I couldn't agree more. At first I though, "maybe they are in a country where there aren't many people who aren't white." But then at the end someone started talking and then I looked at their website. They are in New York City! Weird.
