Royaume-Uni : Il s’endort au bureau le premier jour… et devient une star du Web

Heureusement qu’il l’a bien pris. Une bonne tranche de rigolade en perspective !!

C’est son premier jour de stage, et il s’endort devant son écran : l’histoire aurait pu mal finir, mais ses collègues avaient de l’humour, et lui aussi.

Que celui qui ne s’est jamais endormi au travail lui jette la première paupière… Le premier jour d’un stage, en revanche, cela peut mal finir… Cela n’aura heureusement pas été le cas de celui qui se fait appeler le « canard orange » (The Orange Duck) sur le Net. Alors qu’il s’était endormi devant son écran, un des associés de la start-up s’en rend compte et a l’idée du jour, celle qui peut vous changer une journée de bureau : prévenir tout le monde pour faire une bonne vieille photo de groupe. Tout le monde est sur la photo, personne ne manque à l’appel. Et, bien au centre de l’image, trône le dormeur ! Cheese, photo, et tout le monde repart en veillant à ne pas le réveiller.

Détourné et partagé

Imaginez sa surprise à son réveil, en découvrant la photo sur son bureau. Et c’est là que sa réaction va changer la donne. Plutôt que de mal le prendre ou de culpabiliser, il la trouve tellement drôle qu’il décide de la poster sur le célèbre site de partage Reddit. Résultat : en quelques heures, elle tourne au phénomène. Elle se partage, elle circule, se prête à tous les montages de la part de la génération Photoshop amatrice de « PsBattle », chacune de ces nouvelles créations étant à son tour vue des centaines de milliers de fois.

Le stagiaire endormi se retrouve entouré de princesses Leia, sur scène dans la peau de Paul McCartney ou de Donald Trump, réincarnation de Musclor, sur un tee-shirt façon Bob Marley, et même dans les Simpsons ! En quelques heures, son visage détourné fait littéralement le tour du Web et du monde.

Quant au dormeur masqué, l’histoire finit aussi bien pour lui : il poursuit son stage, et a expliqué au Huffington Post qu’il allait soigner les problèmes d’anémie qui le font s’endormir ainsi devant son écran. Moralité : si vous voulez connaître votre heure de gloire sur le Net, il vous faut trois ingrédients : vous endormir au bureau, des collègues en or et un solide sens de l’humour.

After almost six months aboard the International Space Station (ISS), Maryland local Reid Wiseman landed safely in Kazakhstan last night. Wiseman built quite a social media following for his pictures from space.

“It’s been an honor and a privilege to spend 165 days up here. With that said, I’m looking forward to heading home,” Wiseman said on Saturday. Wiseman grew up in Cockeysville, Md., near Baltimore.

Social Media Election

Anyone with a Facebook or Twitter account has probably noticed an increase in the number of political postings over the past few years. This is due, in part, to the explosive rise in social media outlets and users. But voters are not the only people who use social media; among politicians, 9 out of 10 Senators and Representatives have Twitter accounts. However, many are starting to wonder if social media is becoming less a reporter of political races and more of a predictor of the results. In Senate races, the candidate with more Facebook friends than his or her opponent has won 81% of the time. And one email sent to 60 million Facebook users prompted an additional 340,000 people to vote in the 2010 election. This infographic illustrates just how politics and social media are affecting each other.
