The Daily Thread

On Tuesday, June 24, Orange, created a hip new distraction for anyone willing to name a balloon animal. The site allows viewers to have their own animal that travels along an imaginary online “race course”. The course consists of new websites that want public recognition. The viewer must move their animal either up or down to keep it rockin’ steady and accumulating miles. Each site the viewer’s animal travels across is equivalent to one “internet mile” and is added to their stats. An animal can receive “boosts of energy” from particular sites or if their friends/family give them at least 5 cheers. The viewer who has the most miles by Tuesday, June 31 wins a trip for 7 nights to a private, luxury villa in Ibiza.
