2012 – Comic-Con Updates Scott Caldwell, July 23, 2009June 6, 2010 1 – www.whowillsurvive2012.com is updated:A – New design B – A game is coming soon for what looks to be for the iPhone C – download a wallpaper2 – www.thisistheend.com is updated (written by Charlie Frost):A –Just landed the winnie in sunny San Diego. Things are heating up around the convention center, and not just because of the intense solar rays. The line-up looks great this year. With only 4 Comic-Cons left, I guess they’re pulling out all the stops. I heard there are going to be some Mayan experts on one of the panels. Searching the schedule now. But hit me back @CharlieFrost on Twitter if you have more info.Also did anyone get the press release from The IHC this week? If not, check it out here.According to @TheIHC on Twitter, the search for the Ambassadors mentioned in the press release will happen at Comic-con. Interesting. Will update you as I learn more.B –This place is packed today. You gotta see it to believe it. Or tweet to believe it, evidently. I got this postcard on the way in to the convention center this morning.I think it’s cute how The IHC is planning an election and looking for ambassadors for the Post-2012 world. The oxymoron of that phrase cracks me up every time. But you’ll notice the card says they’re giving away gifts. Tweet away amigo. Probably some good stuff.C –I wasn’t planning on devoting so much time to The IHC while I was here, but you can’t script stuff better than this. I have it on the down low that Dr. Ulfert has reached out to some bloggers (see pic) about The IHC efforts. I guess Dr. Ulfert forgot about moi self. Offended? Nah. Horse crap, if you ask me.Remember, folks, you heard it first from Charlie….there is no such thing as Post-2012.D –If you’ve been reading my blog or following me on Twitter, you know how I feel about the IHC’s survival lottery – tom foolery. But you can sign up for a lottery ticket at their Comic-Con booth and also enter into some raffle. My favorite thing they’re giving away? Huge bags that you can fit a small village in. Perfect when packing for 2012.So if anyone sees Charlie Frost in San Diego, tell him MovieViral.com says hello. Comic-Con Events Viral Marketing Comic-Con
