Kyle,
Thanks for leaving a comment. It is a great idea. I can say that because I didn’t think of it, but wish I had. It’s really given me a lot of ideas of how to use virtual worlds.
You’re not kidding that Green PR is getting cut-throat. It’s the same with any hot topic, flacks out there spinning the stories to appear to fit into the trend, when the connection is tangential, at best, and a blatant fabrication, too often. Could be untrained, inexperienced newbies making it tough for the rest of us – or it could be just too tempting a place to miss out on.

Very cool stuff, thanks for sharing! We’ve been having some conversations around Green PR a lot lately and this is such a wonderful example of a great idea, plus great use of social media.

You did well too mate!

As you can see from Rob Key’s post at our corporate blog, the machinima is beating out Martin Scorcese and a bunch of celebs on the million dollar Amex ad: http://blog.converseon.com/2007/07/12/the-power-of-social-media-in-search/

I wish we’d had more time on this to! But half the fun of social media is how quickly things move. We only had a few days to promote this, it was great to be able to include you mate.

Just a note – if anyone is voting for this be sure to pay attention to the name ‘The Virtual Forest Project. One Million Trees. Easy.’ because their is another project with a confusingly similar name that has been confusing a lot of people.
