What do you get when you play TinkrRoulette?

I found something to do online that is fun and addictive!

Now, I keep hearing people complain about being bored and having nothing to do, so I’m going to share this website, which should be able to keep you people occupied for hours and hours.

And here it is…

TinkrRoulette

TinkrRoulette!

You know how you while away your hours online with Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and online games? You can now add TinkrRoulette to your list.

The first time I tried it, I couldn’t stop playing it. It’s quite unique. Each time you click on the SPIN button, the site churns out four entertaining or funny videos for your viewing pleasure. (These videos are pulled from various video sharing sites such as YouTube, MetaCafe and Break.)

I think all you YouTube junkies might like it.

Usually, I don’t spend a lot of time sitting around watching random videos online because I’d rather be playing my games, but TinkrRoulette changed that habit.

Watching videos now seems fun, haha. I find myself eagerly anticipating the next surprise vids, hoping to discover really good ones that I can share with friends.

Not all the videos that appear are good, you see, so it makes it all the more exciting when you find a good one!

Well, okay, there’s also another thing that keeps me spinning: The lure of the jackpot!

Sometimes, you will see a TinkrBox logo in place of a video. If you manage to spin out 2-4 logos at the same time, you’ll win a prize! (Note: The 2-logo prize has been fully claimed for now.)

TinkrRoulette

The top prize is an iPad!!

Yeah, I know I already have an iPad, but you can’t have too many, you know? (Cos the Goonfather keeps stealing mine.)

Anyway, just give it a try. You might get lucky, right? And, in the meantime, you might also discover some gems of videos! I did discover some good ones, which I’ll share at the end of this post.

For now, let’s take a quick look at TinkrBox, a web community where you can organise, bookmark and share your favourite online things. (TinkrBox is the company that created TinkrRoulette.)

TinkrBox

I made a box of my four favourite things (below)! =P

What’s cool is that you can lump together items of different media like in this example:

TinkrBox

I think this is very useful because our favourite items are always scattered about everywhere on the Internet, so TinkrBox can help us collate and organise them!

I’m thinking you might need to use TinkrBox after playing TinkrRoulette, because you will be finding great videos from different video-sharing websites which you would want to “store” and organise at one place.

And since TinkrBox is also a web community, you can see other people’s collections and “like” them. This is a great way to share all your favourite videos with friends rather than sending them a zillion links!

Now, back to TinkrRoulette. Go spin and win something and let me know if you do so we can all share your joy, okay? ;)

Alright, I’ll stop yabbering and share some vids now. Here are the cool ones I found on TinkrRoulette (although I didn’t find a prize, boohoo. I think you’ll be luckier than me).

Enjoy!

=======================================================

Very Funny Pepsi Commercial

I watched this before and really enjoyed it, so I was happy when TinkrRoulette showed it!

=======================================================

Japanese String Movies

This performance is pretty awesome. I can’t really describe it; you have to watch it yourself. And see how many famous movies you can identify in there!

=======================================================

Worst Audition Ever

A Popstars audition. It’s rather hilarious, although might be painful to watch for some people.

=======================================================

Unusual Japanese Stage Act

Another unique Japanese stage show that I was quite amazed at. Comic lovers will especially appreciate this! You don’t need to know Japanese to enjoy this.

=======================================================

iMouth

I saved the best for last! There’s this good-looking dude who combines music and video technology to create really outstanding, unique videos every week. (He’s very popular, has 1.3 million subscribers.) After watching this one, I spent the next hour or so watching all his other videos. His creativity and charisma are really amazing! Must watch, not just this one but all his vids!

=======================================================

Epic Edit Choir

Okay, this last last vid came out of watching the last one… cos it’s by the same dude above (he calls himself Mystery Guitar Man). I just had to include this because it’s too epic not to share!

=======================================================

Your turn! Go spin out some better videos than these and good luck at hitting the jackpot! =)

Play TinkrRoulette here.

I have a secret I want to share

I’m going to show you an object.

Please make a guess what it is.

Don’t scroll down for the answer. Guess first!

Okay, here it is…

Oooh… what is it?!

I photoshopped the label away so you can’t tell. Haha.

Okay, some hints now…

It’s a new product.

*lol*

More hints?

It will make you feel good!

Oooh.

It’s fun to use!

Can you tell what it is yet?

It will make you look good!

So, what did you guess?

ALRIGHT I WILL TELL YOU ALREADY! =)

It’s a revolutionary new product recently lauched by Garnier called the Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On.

Check out this video of us going around asking unsuspecting strangers to guess what it is!

Now, this is the exciting thing I mentioned that had kept me so busy I didn’t have time to review games.

As part of the product launch, Garnier has started a fun campaign involving videos and contests and prizes!

I’m the poster girl for this campaign (or maybe the term should be “video girl” since we’re in the new media age now).

I will tell you more about it in a while.

First, a word from my sponsor!

I love Garnier!

Okay, that was a word from me.

Now, let’s hear it from Garnier! (And me. These are my words also lah.)

Roll away eye bags and dark circles!

The state-of-the-art cooling ball in Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On massages your eye contours as you roll on the eye brightening essence.

Massaging your eye contours boosts natural drainage and the metal ball helps to decongest tired and puffy eyes instantly!

I could just roll it around my eyes all day because it feels so good, but I think overdosing won’t be a good idea. Haha.

Wake up your eyes with… caffeine!

Never thought of using caffeine for your eyes, huh? Well, if caffeine can wake you up in the morning, it can wake up your eyes, too. Really!

Caffeine is a natural stimulant that boosts micro-circulation, which helps to get rid of puffiness, bags and dark circles effectively.

So, coffee bean for your eyes, anyone?

Roll in your brightest look

With just two rolls around each eye, you’re all set to face the day! The essence you roll on with the metal ball feels cool and light. It absorbs into your skin pleasantly and doesn’t leave any heavy or sticky feeling.

Guys can use it too!

Like, just hide it in your pocket, and when you feel tired, sneak off to the men’s room, massage your eyes a little with your Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On, then get out there to impress the ladies with your sparkling peepers!

Now, let’s recap!

After a few weeks of using this product, my eyes feel and look so much better than before.

And this is my secret! (Well, I guess it isn’t a secret anymore.)

And now for the fun part!

Please check out the Roll With It website now.

Okay, maybe not immediately now. Check it out after you finish reading this blog.

The campagin features a game called Roll With It, which you can download to your mobile phone. It helps you make all kinds of decisions in life!

Ever played Spin the Bottle?

Well, this is kinda like Spin the Eye Roll-On.

Example!!

You’re lipstick shopping and can’t decide whether to buy Pearl Lumine or Fiery Temptress. Just press a button on your mobile phone and the game will decide for you!

You can also use it to sabo your friends. That is the fun part. Haha.

Check out the videos in the website to learn how the game can help you, and how you can use it to sabo your friends.

Before you do that, though, I’ll show you a few videos here that you can’t find in the website. Call it bonus material for my blog readers! ;)

Here’s one of me and my friends gaming!

It was a lot of fun filming the videos. The film crew didn’t tell us what to do, most of the time. They put us in real life situations and helped us sabo each other.

Okay, and the craziest part is that my friends got so hyped up about the whole thing that they didn’t want to go home after the shoot wrapped!

They dragged me to a pub and MADE ME PICK UP A GUY AT THE PUB.

The worst part is that this was filmed!!! And my friends said I’d better upload the video or they’ll make me do even worse things in the future.

So evil, they all!

But I still love them because they are super super cool! One of them had this brilliant idea to make a “Roll With It” cocktail while we were at the pub and we all got really excited about it!!

The bartender was so weirded out by our antics but he gamely went along with our request to play the Roll With It game. He’s a cool bloke, even though he refused to try our cocktail after making it. Haha.

Watch the making of our cocktail!

I only have one behind-the-scenes photo taken during the entire shoot. I didn’t have time to take out my camera at all because I was too busy being sabo-ed!

But I guess you don’t need to see photos, really. Just watch the videos.

During the two days, the Roll With It game helped make so many decisions for us!

Do catch the video of me shopping for a birthday cake with my friends. The widget helped us choose a cake to throw Wang Wang a surprise birthday party!

This is all real!! She thought she was just attending one of my gaming video shoots, so we managed to surprise her!

It was quite a sweet moment.

We blindfolded her and made her guess objects either by touching or licking them! Wahahaha!

It’s so cool the way we surprised her!

Besides the video shoot, there was also a photoshoot for the website.

I had to do a series of poses in different clothes for all the various illustrations in the website.

Fun!

And now… another guessing game.

Guess what this is!

I will tell you the answer later.

Right now, I need to get you all excited about the prizes!

Garnier is giving away lots of product hampers and LG is giving away two LG Renoir phones worth $900 each!

The Renoir is a beauty. It’s the phone I use in the videos, and also the phone featured on the main page of the website.

You could win it!!

Just download the Roll With It game, then film yourself and your friends using it, just like in my videos!

After filming it, upload your masterpiece to the website. If your video is selected, you could be the proud owner of an LG Renoir!

Tip: Instead of using the mobile phone game, you could also use the actual product to roll with it! ;)

I can’t wait to watch all your videos. Can you top mine? Can your friends top my crazy friends?

Yes, I’m challenging you to come up with your most creative and fun Roll With It Moments!

Oh, yes. I also owe you an answer. =P

So what is this?!

(Picture again)

It’s a giant mutant psychotic bat!

No, I’m only kidding.

It’s the photographer trying to take a close-up photo of the phone for the homepage of the website!! Haha!

Because the phone is so glossy, his reflection could be seen on it, so he had to cover himself with a black sheet while photographing me.

He looks so cute in his bat suit!

Well, do try the product, watch the videos, download the game and make your own videos.

I’m sure everyone wants to look great and roll with it.

Using the Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On, you can look great after rolling away your eye bags and dark circles. This will give you the confidence to roll with your everyday life!

Do use the game daily to help you roll confidently through your eveyday life. Have fun with the Roll With It game and roll with life! ;)

And get all your friends in on it, too. Join me in the roll-on revolution!
