Some lady emailed me this morning to tell me that my experimental video of begging for an iphone on the street was mentioned in the London Times. It was listed (as #3) in an article entitled “50 reasons not to buy an iPhone“:
“3. If you’re still determined to get an iPhone, you could of course try innovative ways to raise the money like begging on the street like this guy.“
It was also mentioned a while back in Computer World magazine in an article entitled “Top 10 — plus one — funniest iPhone Youtube videos“.
Phone owners can always take to the streets to beg for the funds to pay a bill, as this man did in an attempt to procure the pricey device.
I haven’t seen a view hit jump yet (its been over 20,000 for a couple of weeks I think), but who knows, maybe it will make another comeback…it’s still timely and relevant and pretty funny, I think at least.
I REALLY do need to update the iphoneplease.com site though to say that I am now a proud iphone owner, thanks to the money the site raised and to the generous surprise birthday gift from a group of friends and family members.
