Picture perfect

As point and shoot mobile phone cameras go, the new Samsung Pixon M8800 has raised the bar. The new eight-megapixel wonder from Samsung Mobile captures moments in the best possible way, thanks to advanced picture-taking functions, photo and video uploading features and a large touch-enabled screen, all housed in a sleek and stylish dual face structure.

During the launch, guests went through the gallery highlighting the Pixon M8800’s various capabilities including Fast Advanced Shake Reduction, Face Tagging and Recognition, Auto Contrast Balance, Automatic Panorama Shot, Smile Shot and Blink Shot features. It also boasts of an equally impressive Photo Browser function that categorizes snapshots by time, color tone and composition, making photo browsing easier and faster.

The Pixon also has mobile blogging capabilities via popular social networking sites like Facebook, Friendster and Flickr as well as a very formidable Music Recognition Feature that has the ability to get the title of a song within the first few notes.

Hosted by Nikki Gil and Trishan Cuaso, the show was highlighted by a breathtaking audio-visual presentation of the Samsung Pixon. A lavish dinner was then unveiled while guests were entertained by Billy Crawford and the All-Stars.

The powerful eight-megapixel full touch screen phone, an energetic crowd and full-on entertainment summed up an enchanting evening that was simply, well, picture perfect.

Word of mouth

Colgate Total, the world-famous name in advanced oral care, is utilizing the power of word of mouth to promote its newest product, the Colgate Total Professional Clean gel. This toothpaste banks on its high performance cleaning silica, similar to those micro-clusters dentists use to polish and clean teeth during a prophylaxis treatment.

Launched at the Mandarin Hotel, the Colgate Total Professional Clean culminates its referral program with Colgate Total “Experience the Pro Clean Difference,” a movement that convinces consumers to share this latest and highly innovative toothpaste in the market to its family, friends and colleagues through the Colgate Professional Clean Dental Package, a kit that contains a 40-gram tube of Colgate Total Professional Clean, information about this cleaning gel and a referral form that can be mailed to more friends and colleagues.

To start off the Colgate Total Experience Pro Clean Difference movement, Colgate Total chose four ambassadors: news anchor Tricia Chiongbian, fashion designer and musician Kate Torralba, TV host Jinno Rufino and restaurateur Andrej Wisniewski.

Each ambassador was asked to fill up the form with names and contact information of friends who might be interested in the new advanced product. Every name on these lists will receive a Colgate Total Professional Clean Pack, information on this product and a referral form so they themselves can continue the Colgate Total “Experience the Pro Clean Difference” movement.
