Macy's Parade 'RickRolled' LIVE

We talked about the "rickrolling" phenomenon in class - how videos were 'taken over' by 80's pop star Rick Astley singing "Never Give You Up". Here's how an online, shared experience (social media) translates into real life. Rick Astley RICKROLLS LIVE at the Macy's Day Parade!

You are awesome for teaching UCLA students about social media! I graduated from UCLA in 2007, and how I wish there was a professor that taught me about blogging, Twitter, and social bookmarking.

I started FutureDelivery.tv to help undergraduates and young professionals become more familiar with social media. Here is a recent episode I made that is a step-by-step look at blogging to build your personal brand.

I hope you enjoy the video and good luck with everything.
