			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looky here! My first ever SlideShare.net presentation! It&#8217;s a little ditty I created to help our traditional media buying folks transition over to the brave new world of online banner ads and all the specs they have to understand and bring into their Work Orders. It&#8217;s pretty basic, and it assumes I&#8217;ll be talking through some of the details, but it&#8217;s hopefully still somewhat informative&#8230; and maybe a little entertaining.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow. Talk about deep content. This little visualization of what Sports Illustrated could turn into on is completely &#8220;Game ON!&#8221; (sorry, had to do it) This is exactly the type of thing that has so many people excited about the prospect of some sort of Apple &#8220;Tablet&#8221;. Really nice work <em>Time, Inc.</em> and <a href="http://www.thewonderfactory.com/" target="_blank"><em>WonderFactory</em></a>!</p>
<p class="video"><object width="599" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/ntyXvLnxyXk&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;hd=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/ntyXvLnxyXk&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="599" height="355"></embed></object></p>
<p>But I tell you this&#8230; to create a magazine like this would be no small endeavor. To have content that runs this deep would require a whole lot of people working real hard, probably around the clock. But imagine if Wired magazine were like this? Or how about US News and World Report? Or maybe online news magazines? Like the Huffington Post?</p>

So&#8230; I don&#8217;t know if there is such a thing as a viral &#8220;Classic&#8221;&#8230; but if it&#8217;s possible, I&#8217;d vote for this one as a definite contender. <a href="http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/end" target="_blank">albinoblacksheep</a>! The END!</p>
