Today I learned the KitKat bar can be used as a straw and that the wrapper can tear to only expose on finger. If this is true, I may very well stock up for use with my coffee at the office!

#102I was laughing at this parody. Then, I found myself wanting a KitKat. Perhaps there's something to this presentation style after all!
But it must be a Nestle KitKat. Here in the U.S. you can find them in specialty stores. Its worth it.

Huh? You can buy them at any corner gas station.

#104Great parody. I suppose this is a relevant article to attach this question. What is the general consensus on using the scroll event to trigger animations/content changes? I am working on an article that uses animations to help explain scientific processes and triggering these with the scroll position seems to offer many advantages over having the user keep clicking a next button. I know where they are on the page and…
I think it really depends on how you do it.
I find that I get annoyed by sites that use scrolling as a means to navigate between sections that aren't really sequential. Something like a product page with Features, Tech Specs, Pricing, etc. those are things I want to be able to navigate to in a nonlinear way.
If you have content that lends itself to serialization or whatever you want to call it, the scrolling effects work a lot better. At that point, it just becomes an embellishment - because the user already expects to be scrolling.

Presumably the same people who like KitKat on Facebook. Utterly pointless, but people do it.
I agree that it's pointless, but liking a product on Facebook are signaling to their friends that they like KitKat. I think social proof plays a role here: "will I be less cool if I don't show people how I like this thing some of my friends like too?" A brand website doesn't quite have the same appeal of social proof. It takes a greater interest in a brand to visit its website than it takes to open a logo in a friend…
Smart marketing agencies can take a dead-end brand that's perceived as low price or low quality, then socially market it to young hipsters and get them (and their friends) to like/follow it as a way to signal to their friends that they don't care about marketing or signalling and that they "get it", and thus in the process drive a renaissance for aforementioned product due to its newly found trendy fanbase.

Having moved from the UK to the US, it makes me angry and disappointed that they don't use the paper/foil packaging here, so you can't do that :/
I haven't seen a paper/foil packaged kitkat in years, and this is in the UK. It seems they've abandoned it completely, which is saddening.
I haven't ever seen a paper/foil packaged kitkat. I think i missed out on something.

The 2 finger multi-packs (x8) have them, sold in Tesco and probably the other large supermarkets, I ate one (for the first time in a long time) yesterday and it was paper + tinfoil + delicious.

#109I'd like to see more clever marketing and partnerships like this. It is certainly more interesting than bland marketing and targeted ads.

I assumed this, as soon as I realized they were using a branded dessert instead of a generic one.
