Extra, Extra: If Toronto Was Nuts, If You Didn’t Suck at PowerPoint, And If You Like Marcel Duchamp

By

Every weekday’s end, Extra, Extra collects just about everything you ought to care about or ought not miss.

  • Watch a TTC subway car transform into a bullet train, skateboarders fly around the financial district, racecars speed through Fairview Mall and up Yonge Street, and a heck of a lot more in this incredible Toronto-shot ad for Bahrain-based telecom company Batelco. (A précis, from Gizmodo: “The City Where Everything Awesome Happens All The Time.”) Don’t miss the making-of video, either. [from reader Eztra Wasser.]
  • You may or may not have seen “You Suck at PowerPoint!” by now; it’s a clever slideshow on how to not make slideshows. (Clever, right?) What we didn’t know: creator Jesse Desjardins is a local.
  • And just so you know, this is not a newspaper box.
