Ford Fiesta Movement in the Blogosphere this Week

The Fiesta Movement was back this week.  The past two weeks were abysmal–little content, no content, horrible content–you name it, the blogosphere experienced it the past two weeks.  We are happy and pleased to say that the blogosphere came back with some strong posts about the 2011 Ford Fiesta.  From hip-hop events to an emotional goodbye letter, this week’s Ford Fiesta movement recap had it all.

Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride!

The Valley PR blog begins this week’s recap.  They were proud, as most passionate city supporters are, of natives being seen on the national stage in a positive light, let alone the world wide web.  The folks in Phoenix are no exception.  Charlotte Shaff at the Valley PR wrote a brief bio, congratulatory note and status update of Phoenix natives, Austin Baker and Sunny Thaper, aka Team Phoenix.  If you are reading this in Tempe, stop by the Cartel Coffee Lab tonight.  Team Phoenix will be celebrating completion of their first mission starting at 7pm.

The completion of Team Phoenix’s first mission unveils a mural created by Jeremie Lederman, aka the Big Red Ape.  Jeremie was a bit put-off by his friends asking for his help with completion of their first mission at the last minute.  But, Jeremie definitely stepped in and helped his friends complete mission one with style.  Here are some images of the completed project.  Way to go, Jeremie!

Creative Casualties was commissioned with creating the videos for Team San Diego.  Their first video release for the team, aka The Finished Product, is quite impressive.  Team San Diego traveled throughout parts of San Diego on a scavenger hunt.  This scavenger hunt is a great visibility event for the 2011 Ford Fiesta and just a plain, good-old fashioned time for the members of Team San Diego.

Team Miami released the second Ford Fiesta video this week.  A quick improvisation of the classic movie Carface, aka Scarface.  There are quite a few Little Havana and South Beath locations viewed in this video.  See how many you can find.

We end this week with M.G. Buehrlen’s fond fairwell to her 2011 Ford Fiesta.  M.G. will return her Fiesta to Ford at the end of April.  M.G. was so upset with this upcoming event that she started listing the fun and memorable times she had with her 2011 Fiesta.  Definitely a fun list of bright days she shared with her vehicle.

See you next week!

Ford Fiesta Movement in the Blogosphere this Week

Your weekly recap is back with another edition.  The weekend started with snow this morning, but should hopefully have some nice weather for Saturday and possible rain Sunday.

Nonetheless… here we go…

Autoblog, the premier automotive blog, was the first to release spy shots of the 2011 Ford Fiesta with Ecoboost.  Many bloggers followed the remainder of the week with their version, but they were merely copies of this quick and informative article.  The Fiesta with Ecoboost will definitely be a fun car to drive.  The “original” North American 2011 Ford Fiesta boasts impressive race numbers for a B-car.  Now, imagine a Taurus SHO engine in a Ford Fiesta.  Exciting, fun and scary.

Our favorite team of the second Ford Fiesta Movement is Team Philly, aka Geekadelphia.  They shared the results of their first mission, a mural showcasing all the fun events in Philadelphia.  We did not know you could cram all that information on an image and make it look awesome!

Now, contrast the Philadelphia mural mission of 2010 with the Philadelphia scavenger hunt mission of 2009.  Which team receives your vote for most creative.  Rocky or Picasso?

The last Ford Fiesta Movement piece that caught our attention this week was from the west coast.  (Yes, there was an east coast v. west coast theme this week)  Some what clever, but definitely not as original as the scavenger hunt.  (Yes, we voted for Rocky and not Picasso).  Classical car buffs will love this piece.  The 2011 Ford Fiesta spends time with its classic car predecessors with the Ford Fiesta west coast team.  Check it out!

That’s it folks!  A rather short information week this time around.  Stay tuned for next week.  There will be more to come!

Ford Fiesta Movement in the Blogosphere this Week

This was a relatively light week for the Ford Fiesta Movement.

There were only three main stories that caught our attention (and the overall media, at large) and were worthy of reviewing.

The first story explained how to buy items from the Home Shopping Network using your new 2011 Ford Fiesta.  There are two products you should consider buying–a telephone and (review the video to find out the other).

Story number two discusses the ongoing cross-promotion of the Ford Fiesta and the American Idol television show.  One of the missions of the Ford Fiesta Movement Chapter Two involved each one of the final 12 contestants on FOX’s American Idol.  Each contestant was provided the opportunity to design the exterior paint design of a 2011 Ford Fiesta.  If you visit the American Idol’s website you can learn all about this joint program and how you could possibly win some cool prizes, including a 2011 Ford Fiesta.

The last, but certainly not least, story of the week involves aspiring filmmakers.  If you are an aspiring filmmaker, know an aspiring filmmaker or just like watching a good old fashioned film, check this out.  Filmaka, one of the sponsors of the original Ford Fiesta Movement, is back.  Filmaka is teaming with Ford to help the Ford Fiesta Movement Chapter Two agents create their videos.  Filmaka is also looking to individuals to help create a video of the Ford Fiesta when an agent visits your city.  Sign up today to help out the agents, produce your own video and experience the Ford Fiesta.

Enjoy your weekend!

Ford Fiesta Movement in the Blogosphere this week

It was definitely a busy week for the Ford Fiesta Movement.  We believe that is a combination of the growing excitement of the 2011 Ford Fiesta release and the first full week of the Ford Fiesta Movement: Chapter 2.  Review the great articles below and you be the judge.

Lobese, a New York City Art Director and self-proclaimed “digital dork” is a member of Team Brooklyn for Ford Fiesta Movement: Chapter 2.  The first mission for the agents of Chapter 2 was to create a wrap for their Fiestas.  Lobese (and her teammate Caitlin-Marie) created a “Bling’d out, Brooklyn bodega culture inspired Ford Fiesta.”  Great creativity and unique design.

A nice patrol woman stops another 2011 Ford Fiesta to admire the car (or maybe the young men inside?)  You be the judge.  Unfortunately, the patrol woman, the driver, the videographer or the blog writer share which team this is so we cannot provide you with the team name.

For all hockey fans, check this out.  The Edmonton Oilers will possibly give you a 2011 Ford Fiesta at one of their games.  Here is the deal.  The Edmonton Oilers and Ford Canada have teamed to possibly give away a Fiesta to a highly skilled hockey fan at their April 7, 2010, game in Edmonton against the Colorado Avalanche.  Head over to edmontonoilers.com/fiesta for game rules and qualifications.  Good luck.  Hey, even if you do not lose you can still possibly be one of six fans chosen to watch the game in the executive suite.

Noted marketer Jeff Bullas wrote a somewhat controversial post titled, “Who Is Winning at Social Media Marketing: Ford or General Motors?“  The article seemed pretty vanilla and neutral.  However, people commenting on the article were pretty passionate about their brands–much more so than comments by Scott Monty, head of social media at Ford Motor Company, and Christopher Barger, director of social media at General Motors.

2011 Ford Fiesta S2000 Rally Car Drivers Charl Wilken and Greg Godrich gave a clear description of their opening race in the 2010 Sasol SA Rally Championship.  Expectation and excitement were at an all-time high for this team due to the relentless interest of the 2011 Ford Fiesta, the press coverage of the Rally Championship and the early championship success of the team.  Read the story and see how the team did.

The second Ford Fiesta team we reviewed this week was Team Philadelphia.  Their team of Mikey and Tim will be strolling around the streets of Philadelphia in their Fiesta.  They introduced their upcoming Chapter 2 adventure on the popular Philadelphia geek blog, Geekadelphia.com.

Scott Monty made the headlines again this week in another interview.  This interview was conducted by Lee Oden of TopRank, a top ranked blog (we could not help ourselves… funny, right?) at Ford Motor Company’s World Headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan.  This interview was not as animated as the previous interview Scott Monty was involved in earlier in the week, but definitely a genuinely nice Scott Monty shares wonderful successful social media insights of Ford Motor Company and their plans to become “a car, utility and truck company” instead of “just a truck and mustang company” in the upcoming years.

We must admit that the 2011 Ford Fiesta is definitely a car to buy for 2010.  But who are we to toot our own horn?  G.E. Miller, the creater of 20SomethingFinance.com shared why the 2011 Ford Fiesta is a financially sound decision for potential car buyers in his article, “Ford Fiesta: The Must Buy Car of 2010.”  For first time car buyers, those wanting a B-size vehicle and anyone else interested in a financial observation of the 2011 Ford Fiesta, review this article.

We end this week’s review with a question, is the Ford Fiesta Movement a social media experiment or just a sponsored buzz machine?  Let us know what you think.

Ford Fiesta Movement in the Blogosphere this Week

The weekend is officially here.  And to kick it off, your weekly Ford Fiesta Movement updates from earlier in the week.

The new 2011 Ford Fiesta can give you dating advice.  Just watch.

Fiesta Movement opens Chapter Two.  AutoEvolution was the first blog to release the new information, so we felt it necessary to share their view on the latest installment of the Fiesta Movement.

The Ford Fiesta agents for Chapter Two have been released on the road.  The agents received their new 2011 Ford Fiestas earlier this week.  The format for Chapter Two is quite different than the original campaign.  Nonetheless, this campaign should impress and continue Ford Motor Company’s dominance on the social media stage.  Check out the first video we found from the first team to release information on Chapter Two, Team Dallas.

Ford Fiesta Movement Team Boston finally released their first video.  Hopefully, the remaining teams will release their videos next week.

Enjoy your weekend!

Ford Fiesta Movement in the Blogosphere this Week

Below is the weekly recap of the Ford Fiesta Movement in the blogosphere.  Check out the wonderful articles and videos below.  Quite an enjoyable recap this week.

Enjoy the weekend!

Does anyone know where to obtain Ford Fiesta parts?

The Technician, the Student Voice of Kettering University, published an opinion piece on the 2010 North American International Auto Show.  The piece was written very well, especially giving an unbiased and factually based view of the features of the B cars shown at the show.  Unfortunately, the writer did not share his thoughts on the B cars, especially the 2011 Ford Fiesta, and the 2012 Ford Focus.  Providing his opinion and insight would have been excellent because the B cars were built for his generation.  Nonetheless, read the article.

Lavell’s Ford Fiesta Movement Chapter 2 Contest Video.  Potential applicant for Ford Fiesta Movement 2: The Commercial.  Check out Lavell’s application video.
