Monday Morning Inspiration: Pork and Beans

From Weezer's Pork and Beans music video
The video for Weezer's hit single Pork and Beans is a viral sensation on the web.

Have you seen Weezer's latest video, Pork and Beans?

If you haven't - even if you don't like Weezer - it's worth checking out because, if nothing else, it's a brilliant example of how to tap in to different audiences using YouTube. In a single music video they make reference to 24 of the web's most famous viral videos from the past 10 years. The video was an instant sensation on YouTube, amassing millions of views in its first few days of release (as of this writing it had been seen well over six million times) and no doubt helped Pork and Beans become Weezer's most popular number one single ever.
