Ad spoofs. And now here comes MAFIA WARS.

You have probably watched the hilarious Farmville ad spoof last week. Well, as every successful entertainment concept needs a sequel, here is it – the Mafia Wars ad spoof. It is basically a remixed version of the original spot but we like it nevertheless…kind of (5 out of 10 points because of a lack in originality). Thanks to allfacebook for the link.

Faaaaarmville. The commerical is here (kind of).

As long as you still want to be able to have a relationship, work and stuff like that, you should not start certain things. Heroin for example, or World of Warcraft…or Faaaarmville. Zynga’s social gaming superstar attracts 72.9 million active users every month and was among the first superhits of a new gaming genre on social networks. Farmville was not the first but the most succesful social games…ending the careers and relationships of millions on the way to the top.

And now look what user generated content did for us. Faaaarmville – the commercial. 110% hilarity guaranteed (thx to Penn-Olson).

Adobe. Photoshop on the iPhone…and you wonder.

Adobe has just launched its Photoshop app. Yes, we are talking about the world’s most successful piece of software for designers now brought to the screens of an iPhone. Actually I expected Adobe to push Flash a little bit further than what they announced last week, instead of bringing this complex, visual monster to the iPhone. But hey, life is sometimes stranger than fiction.

The concept is around for quite some time. Photoshop for iPhone was announced (and laughed about) in 2007 at Adobe’s keynote. And I simply had to repost this hilarious little spoof making John Loiacono, SVP of Adobe Creative Solutions Business Unit, announce the app at the keyote for Photoshop World in Las Vegas. Simply a good LOL about a decision you don’t need to understand.
