Hi, I'm Notes... - Multi-platform party

Category IBM/Lotus
Title: Multi-Platform Party (parody of I'm a Mac and I'm a PC advertisement)

Scene:  Notes character is on right with a number of partying, “cool” individuals behind him.  Exchange character is on left with one single, slighty-forlorn individual behind him.

Notes:  Hi, I'm IBM Lotus Notes/Domino.

Exchange: And I'm Microsoft Exchange.

Exchange:  Who are all those people with you?

Notes:  Oh, those are all the different operating systems that can use me.  There's Linux, Mac, mainframes, iSeries...  There's lots of room for different styles, and we all work and play together.

Notes:  And who's that with you?

Exchange:  Oh, that's Windows.  I like to keep my parties small and private.  Makes it easier to control the level of fun everyone's having...  Don't want things to get out of my control, you know...

Notes:  Hey, Windows...  come on over.  I work with you too, and you can interact with all these others...  I think you'd enjoy yourself...

<Windows character starts to slide over to the Notes party with a guilty expression...>

Exchange:  Hey!  Where are you going?  Get back over here!  I need you!

Gravatar Image1 - That is aweseome. Where did you see it?

It would be really, really cool if somebody (hello Bruce) were to actually produce this and put in on youtube and elsewhere.

For the Linux guy you'll probably find a good amateur actor in a Harley Davidson club.

This would also be a nice one for IBM (hello Ed) to make for Lotusphere. Especially with the new multi-platform-ness with the Eclipse-based client.




Gravatar Image2 - This is something I came up with the other day... I have a couple of other ones I'll post later...

And yes, they'd be fun to see at Lotusphere... :)

Gravatar Image3 - Great idea. I see just one fly in the ointment. Where, at Lotusphere, will you find the cool looking people to party on the Notes side?
