Timewaster of the day

My co-blogger at Capsules, Anne Taylor-Vaisey, just sent me this very silly retro-looking game you can play to determine what breed your inner dog is. Turns out I’m a Border Collie. Hmm.

But this is also a nifty idea for meetings Web sites–the dog game is part of a promo for a new movie called Gone to the Dogs. Is there some little fun online game you can tie into your meeting’s theme? People spread these things around like wildfire, and it could help to attract potential attendees you wouldn’t have reached in traditional ways. Plus, don’t you want people to think your meeting will be enjoyable? Why not associate it with something fun at the very start on your meeting’s Web page?

Personalized amenities

A new luxury resort in Mexico has come up with yet another way to pamper incentive participants or other lucky guests: personal media devices. Before you even get to the One&Only Palmilla, it lets guests in its one-bedroom suites request the movies they’d like to have programmed into the devices. Each suite also comes with iPods that also can be pre-stocked with personal requests ahead of time. Pretty cool idea!
