Inviting Bloggers to Boost Exposure - Sony Foam City (VIDEO) [Edit]

We’ve seen a number of bigger names embrace the power of the blogosphere, from General Motors to Chanel.

Now Sony is testing the influential powers of the blogging world with the release of Sony Foam City, a TV spot which shows Miami being transformed into a huge swamp of bubbles. They used the world’s largest foam machine for the shoot, producing two million litres of foam a minute.
