Waxing UnLyrical

What the iPhone is to smart phones, flash mobs are to marketing. While a slew of such campaigns have taken place in India, one that caught the fancy of many is the recent flash mob organized by the IBM OnDemand Community. Keeping the IBM flash mob in square focus, while IBM was one of the first technology firms to champion the idea in India, using social media ( Twitter ) has only helped to further the reach of this effort. Flash Mobs Go Social in India.

This post takes a look at how grassroots, user generated flash mobs got hijacked and became agency created, professionally choreographed and danced by hired talent, to flog products. Note: A flash mob is organising for a group of people to show up at a time and place, in public, undertake a noticeable action (live) then walk off as if nothing had happened. This is an agency created (won ad of the year) flash mob for T Mobile – Saatchi and Saatchi.

This past weekend, my friend Ken Mueller shared a video he’d taken of a Christmas flash mob at the Lancaster Central Market, singing the Hallelujah Chorus. I love flash mobs – who doesn’t, right? plus, I think they’re in my DNA, since no one can flash mob like Bollywood can – so I watched it. When Ken posted the video to Facebook, one of the comments was pretty negative, along the lines of “this is completely boring.”

Apparently the owners decided to respond to the trolls that were commenting about how bad they came off on the show. This doesn’t absolve the restaurant owners but it does highlight the typical flash mob actions that occur on social networks. How many of those 1131 reviewers actually ate at the restaurant and how many just piled on for some good old flash mob social media bashing?

The beauty of flash mobs is when people come together in public places to entertain others. Train stations and outdoor plazas are typical locales of flash mobs due to their vast performance spaces and pedestrian-friendly hubs.

Check out these quotes from the post: There was no validation that what I did was comment-worthy, no “cute” notations on Yelps, no retweets of my witty Twitter updates. Social Media flash mobs go nuts over corporate missteps-they validate each other in unison and then are further validated by Twitter, blogs and reaction from the company itself. A high number of blog comments= validates the topic. Snarky comment on Twitter=need for validation.

Radiotjänst really put a focus on thanking their customers and is doing so with quite extreme actions; they also did Sweden´s greatest flash mob as part of the campaign.

Only now, we have the long tail of comments: Interesting move – Having women say Tony’s words back to him.

It’s why T-Mobile succeeded with a flash mob. It’s really mostly about chance, and like I mentioned earlier in the comments, luck and timing.

I’ve bemoaned the amount of commentary from middle-aged white commentators on what is happening with young multicultural teenagers in areas of economic deprivation, and the number of politicians who don’t seem to know what the heck is going on, but want it to stop unless they can score some political points from it. It’s been a strange couple of weeks, both personally and given the events occurring across the country.

Have a look at the tweet stream on the #occupywallstreet from a few minutes ago: From 13 year olds to lawyers being arrested, to comments from the Military (Marine) personnel, to disgust at CNN (traditional media) and Twitter (community hosts) for censorship/non reportage, to citizens interviewing each other, the process reporting is building a story in 140 characters at a time.

Instead, it received the usual handful of tweets, smattering of likes and a gaggle of comments. Barely enough traffic needed for a respectable flash mob. How many other blogs you are reading and commenting on. Maybe a comment below on this post. This guest post is by Marc Ensign of MarcEnsign.com and NotAnotherSEOBlog.com. That last blog post was really good. It was supposed to be the one. The post that launched you into blogging stardom.
