Wow, I just found out that the video I submitted for the MIX09 Show Off! event got first place! I heard the competition was fierce this year, I just wish I had been at MIX to see the show, but it was too close to the MVP Summit this year.

So here is the video I entered, in which I try to channel Billy Mays to create a commercial for the Physics Helper Library. (I was also poking fun at the official rules which said "Please, No Commercials!") And no, my Photoshop skills aren't that bad, I just pasted my head on there in a big hurry :)

Billy Mays talks tough about the Shamwow guy. Might want to stay off his radar. ;)

Congrats on the win; I really think the product sells itself. Physics Helper Library looks awesome.
