Holiday eGreeting Site ElfYourself.com Returns Elfier Than Ever

Let’s face it, when you tried to show off your pop n lock break dancing moves at senior prom, it wasn’t a huge hit. Thankfully, you now have the chance to redeem yourself. The wildly popular holiday eGreeting site, ElfYourself.com is back for its fifth holiday season with two new dances including the rad “80s Remix” and gnarly “Surfer” dances.

OfficeMax and JibJab are excited to bring back the most viral holiday website on record. Since 2006, more than 378 million people have joined in the “Elfamorphosis” from over 50 countries. Through word of mouth, social media, celebrities and news coverage, ElfYourself has turned into a pop culture phenomenon, and each year, thousands request its return for another chance to create FREE holiday eGreetings featuring their photos on hilarious dancing elves. Users can also visit the Elf Store for custom holiday gift items featuring their “elfed” photos.


And that’s not all! For those who love games, OfficeMax is also today launching “Elfmas Town” on Facebook, a collection of fun holiday games including Reindeer on Ice, G-Bread Man and Holiday Grab Bag. Players have the chance to win free gifts and earn points and coupons for holiday shopping.

OfficeMax’s elves are also hitting the streets – You’ll get to see them this year at Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on a float titled “Elves Raise the Roof” and at NYSE where 100 elves will help “ring in the holidays” with OfficeMax during the Closing Bell on Nov. 23!

Guest Post: Facebook and Privacy by John Sileo

Facebook is a cigarette, information is the nicotine, and you are the addict. And it is time to stop blaming Facebook if you get privacy cancer.

Years ago, after a long and drawn out fight, the tobacco industry was forced to put labels on their cigarette packs warning smokers that these nicotine delivery devices caused cancer, birth defects and premature death. The warnings did little to slow down sales of cigarettes, though they might have helped the tobacco companies avoid some costly lawsuits because, after all, they had clearly warned users about the dangers.

With the latest iteration of privacy settings being introduced this week on Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg (or more likely the brilliant Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg) has discovered a similar truth - you are either too addicted to the information drug, or too indifferent to the privacy consequences, to care.

I applaud Facebook for giving users more visibility and a bit more control over how much personal information third party applications can access. They deserve credit for moving the application controls into the privacy section of the website, acknowledging, albeit quietly, that third-party data-mining is a significant source of non-consensual information leakage.

If Facebook would go one step further and demand that third-party apps give us a choice of how much information is shared, along with letting us know how much of our personal information is being shared through the apps that our friends install, we information survivalists would be that much happier. For example, even if you don't allow your third-party apps to share personal information, your friends' third-party apps could  be sharing it anyway. But as it stands now, we would never know it.

The good news for Facebook privacy doesn't end there. Facebook has also redesigned the Groups feature, which theoretically gives you a greater level of control over subsets of friends and how much information they can access. For example, you could choose to share your vacation pictures with family and close friends, but not with co-workers who thought you were out sick. Dishonesty aside, group differentiation makes communication within your social network much more like that of the real world - acknowledging that you don't share all things with all people equally.

Here's where the news gets really good for Facebook - they have done their job (or at least have taken steps in the right privacy direction), and they can still bank on you ignoring the very controls they have given you! Sure, those of us who write about social networking professionally will make the changes, but ninety-nine percent of the people who read this article will do nothing with the knowledge. This claim isn't grounded in bitter cynicism, but statistical fact. I hope that 500 million of you will prove me wrong. When the Facebook changes are live for everyone (they are in beta as I type), we'll put up a new video showing you how to make them.

Granted, Facebook hasn't done everything they should do to make THEIR use of OUR data completely transparent to US; but most of US have done nothing to utilize the tools THEY already built to protect OUR privacy anyway, so the point is mute. Facebook is banking billions on our indifference and inaction.
Facebook executives should roll this strategy out to its logical conclusion: give all of us privacy professionals (the Electronic Frontier Foundation, EPIC, the World Privacy Forum, me) exactly what we want, because your Facebook addicts are already too high on info-voyerism to kick the habit. Your product is too good and too necessary to too many people to be hindered by a bit more transparency and a little more control. You have nothing to lose but our complaints.

Day 16: Milano Moment for Susan G. Komen


 October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  Chances are we may know someone who has had to fight this disease.  It is important for all to be educated on breast cancer issues because not only does it affect females, but males as well.  

Remember these are not just people, they are someone's relative, friend and neighbor.

Donating to different causes dosn't have to be expensive, thanks to the Internet you can join in postings, tweeting etc.  Often times, companies like Milano and others will donate on your behalf to a cause.  


So if you are on Facebook, listen up.  If you are not, join Facebook, and then listen up:
When someone posts a personal Milano Moment on Milano's Facebook Page in October, Pepperidge Farm will donate $.50 per Moment up to $50,000 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

Day 15: "Hello My Name Is Hope" Program

As most of us know all too well, there are lots of fun things to do on Facebook! From Farmville to catching up with old friends, it's easy to get caught up in a virtual frenzy. However, whenever we learn of a Facebook app that lets us inspire others and contribute to a worthy cause, we can't help but spread the word far and wide!

That's why we're so excited to tell you about the "Hello My Name is Hope" campaign, presented by Quill.com, a leading business-to-business online and direct marketer of office products. To boost breast cancer awareness, Quill.com is inviting all Facebook users to post and personalize virtual "Hello My Name is Hope" stickers on their profiles to honor both survivors and victims of the disease. The familiar "Hello My Name Is" stickers take on new meaning with personalized messages of hope and support shared across the Facebook community.  For every sticker shared, Quill.com will donate $1 - up to $20,000 - to City of Hope, a National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center dedicated to research, treatment and education.

quill hope sticker
Throughout October, every sticker created will be displayed in a community gallery on the Quill.com Facebook page, creating a virtual wall of breast cancer messages and images.

Because breast cancer is a disease that has impacted the lives of so many women all over the world, Quill.com is hoping to give a voice to those affected. And because they believe in the power of Moms, they're turning to our community to spread this powerful message of hope.
