Pop-Up Chuck and Faces of the Stars

September 19, 2007 8:17 AM

Here’s a little hodgepodge for you today. NBC is promoting its new show “Chuck” with a cool campaign on Web sites including Entertainment Weekly, Ebaumsworld and National Lampoon, in which Chuck himself pops up in the corner of the screen and tries to set it on fire. Visit the NationalLampoon.com site to check it out.

For another diversion from work today, check out this new video search service from Viewdle. Reuters is trying out the service, a facial recognition tool – it scans videos for famous faces. (Yes, I already tried Clive Owen and Daniel Craig.)
