Follow the White Rabbit Scott Caldwell, December 2, 2009December 2, 2009 Although it sounds like a Jefferson Starship song, it’s not. In fact, you’ll not only be following a white rabbit, you’ll be following 50 of them! All set loose on the streets and subways of NYC during Friday’s morning commute. As part of a marketing campaign for Syfy’s upcoming Alice, you’ll be able to follow these little fellas in business suits in preparation of the 4 hour movie event. In addition, they also have a few “short” viral sites to go along with it. White Rabbit Inc – It all starts here, with the same title as this thread “follow the white rabbit”.

Rumor has it we’ll have some clips of the silly rabbits.And honestly, I’m not sure if the King and Queen are done. They fight a lot and it’s mostly speculation. Viral Marketing Alice
