This seems pretty cool. From Rafat Ali: “– Six companies–avatar design firm Meez, instant messaging company Meebo, blog search engine Technorati, social network Multiply, address book site Plaxo and viral widget company RockYou–have banded together to create a slate of spots to run on YouTube on their own channel, “SuperDotComAdsXLI.”
