Elf Yourself Again in 2009
I don’t think its a secret that I LOVE Elf Yourself. In fact, I wrote a post about it last year.
It makes me laugh. And it gets me into the Christmas spirit. But that’s not all!
There are a few things I adore about Elf Yourself:
- It’s a fun and self-deprecating application. (You know, in a good way.)
- It can be utilized to showcase some of the most “winning” family images taken throughout the year.
- In 2007, Elf Yourself generated more traffic than Facebook for the month of December.
- They add something new and “social-mediay” every single year.
So what did they add this year?
Glad you asked. This year, the elf inside you can choose from two new dances: Hip hop or singing elves. I have demonstrated the hip-hop dance for you below. (As you will see, the awesomeness of my dancing can not be contained.)
Additionally, you can easily share your Elf on Facebook and Twitter. This is a great feature for people like me, who may elf some of my friends as the holidays draw nearer.
And finally, they have made it extremely simple to share your little dance with your friends almost anywhere. I used an embed code to place my elfed-self on this blog. And in other cases, all I had to do was login to my account, and the elves placed themselves right where they belonged on my pages. (In testing the functionality, I tried this with iGoogle, and MySpace. I don’t think I’d been on MySpace for over a year until today.)
So go ahead! Elf Yourself! (And have fun sharing with your friends everywhere this year.)
