Blog Post #11- Will It Blend

Greetings, readers,

Have any of you ever heard of the Blendtec blender? No? Well, the Blendtec blender is the best blender in the history of blenders! Why? Because it can blend anything! Tom Dickson, blender extraordinaire, stars in the Blendtec videos called Will It Blend. The videos show the Tom Dickson guy blending anything and everything, ranging from laser pointers to iPads-even silly putty! The hilarious thing is that during the videos, the cameraman will zoom out and it'll show the Tom Dickson guy with some big stupid grin on his face, as if he's saying "Isn't this fun? I'm blending a $499 - $829 iPad! Yay!"



The Blendtec company was really smart to make these videos because they make their blender seem like some unstoppable appliance. It's interesting to see how companies will try to get people to buy more of their products. This way is better than a TV commercial because if it's a TV commercial, people will just mute it or switch the channel. If it's an Internet video that advertises the product in an interesting way, then people will be more interested. If you are interested in seeing some old guy blend a bunch of stuff, here's a link to the Blendtec website! click here for blending bliss.
