Oh Camera Phones

Remember the world before camera phones? It was a much more private place then. Nowadays picture texts cause drama in high schools throughout the world. I guess without camera phones, we wouldn't have the show "Gossip Girl." Hmm dilemma.



The concept was good, but this one took a little long. A minute thirty for that? The set-up could have been shorter. If this were a news story, the lead would be way too long. Get to what people want to know, a teacher once told me...

I think it's odd that the girl gets ashamed and not outraged. If you woke up to a complete stranger about to kiss you, wouldn't you get mad? It was smooth how he turned the situation on her, but really is that realistic? I don't think so.

In conclusion, Vodafone had a good idea. It was amusing, it told a story (though not quick enough) and it incorporated their new technology (the commercial was in 2005) - the camera phone, setting up the start of a new generation of creepers everywhere.
