And this video is actually an interactive commercial brought to you by Starhub – this was our chosen cable, internet and mobile provider when we were living in Singapore.
If you are not with Starhub yet, you really have to Hub It! This cool tool for the young and the young at heart really redefines entertainment. Techies, gamers or regular Joes who are always on the look-out for new applications should definitely check this one out. The Love Tail dog, Sparky, isn’t the only one who got married in this campaign. Starhub managed to marry TV, internet and mobiles to create a new dimension of interactive gaming.
The teasers and the commercials got me hooked with the concept of an adorable dog in a quest for love. It was really cute and endearing to the viewers. Plus the fact that this is the first time that viewers can play an interactive game in a TV commercial. It got me searching the web for Hub It details. What’s more exciting is that viewers can have their own quest for great prizes by playing the game.
For a limited time, players who can help Sparky find the love of his life can win funky gadgets and cash prizes. The game is quite simple. All you have to do is look for the clues or hints in the Hub It app or the Starhub’s FB page. The clues will give you the tasks that will help unlock a map and eventually lead you to Sparky’s love.
Searching for hidden clues and prizes is like going on a real life treasure hunt adventure which can be very engaging. The clues and hints will be revealed only from August 26 to September 10 so download the Hub It! App now or head on to Starhub’s Facebook Page for your chance to find Sparky’s dream girl AND win big prizes.
The Standard Chartered’s Singapore Little Champions campaign is ongoing ( jointly promoted by Standard Chartered and MasterCard), and I bet a lot of children here are pretty excited about the outcome of this contest. Haven’t registered yet and don’t know what it is about? Well, for starters, let me say that this opportunity will let your child shine beside world-class soccer players at the 2009/2010 UEFA Champions League matches. Participants stand a chance to win a round-trip airfare, a three-night hotel stay and match tickets for you and your child, as well as the much-coveted player escort rights.
What needs to be done?
Simple. Spend at least $300 each month during the promotional period and register for the Little Champions Program and you’re on your way to giving your child one of the most exhilarating experiences of his/her life. For Korea, Standard Chartered’s Korea Little Champions there is a as well, so there’s no need for Korean kids to fret. Deadline for registering is March 21, 2010, but in the event that you will not be able to beat the deadline, you can still win UEFA branded merchandise comprising sweater, cap and luggage bag. Register while it’s still early and enjoy the league with your child!

And on Sunday, most probably we would be waking up really late, eat a brunch of scrambled egg with smoked salmon. It would have been picture perfect if I had one of those beautiful wicker outdoor dining sets like the ones you see in lifestyle magazines but we already have this metal garden set so I have to make do with that for now.
After that we will see how it goes… Anyway, I do hope you have a wonderful weekend my lovely readers See you next week!
Hmm …what do I do today? Maybe I should start learning how to fly…
I don't know...my mummy left me here all alone *sigh*
This bird was born two years ago in the garden of the first house we lived in Singapore. I managed to make a close up picture because he or she was still a baby.
This bird reminds me of spring – a new born, a new beginning. Have a great new week guys!!!
How was your weekend guys? As you know I have been busy with packing the last couple of days and now busy with the unpacking. I have a gazillion things to do and I am so hating keys right now…
Oh no not her. She’s great.
I mean my house keys. That’s the problem I have right now…. Damn it! They always do that to me you know!
Who? Keys!
Keys and I just don’t get along very well. I know that they ( Evil Keys) will always be a part of our life but why don’t they just stick with me…follow me wherever I go!!!
I know I know …I should put my things in one place. I know that already but sometimes in the midst of things I tend to place my stuff somewhere and I do forget where it was.
I remember that we went out to eat dinner to a nearby mall, Parkway Parade. I don’t think I had it with me on the first time we went out.
Oh by the way, I don’t know if it’s only here in Singapore but there are so many sales going on in the shopping malls right now! I think it’s because lots of companies are in trouble right now. They have too many stocks so now they are offering almost everything half price, sometimes even more.
Hubby got a really good deal on a Sony home theater system…and I saw some really nice discount light fixtures but I will check that out when I am alone. I cannot shop well with hubby – he’s always like in a hurry.
Back to keys …I need to have a system. I am also getting tired of finding things all the time.
Hi guys, just a quick post. Moving starts tomorrow….so it would be really really busy the coming days. I ‘ll try to visit you guys when I find the time. Please bear with me.
I am so tired with all the preparations – packing and the cleaning up and then later on unpacking and cleaning up.
Seriously, I don’t know how you guys do it – having 2,3, 4 or more blogs, kids and other hobbies like scrapping etc.
I really admire bloggers who have a gazillion blogs and still manage to have a life.
Anyway, I will be holding a contest for my birthday next month, if you are interested to sponsor, please hop over to my expat blog for the details.
And if you are talented with designing a logo, I need one for the contest. Please contact me at samcj7 {at} yahoo dot com…that can be your contribution to the contest and you’ll get backlinks too.
So that’s all for now. I wish you guys a wonderful weekend!!!
