  • Really a great creativity job!! ;-)

    Unfortunately, I think that the right order, at least here in Italy, is the top-down...

  • Very great! Love this! Bravo to the team who put this together!

  • Way to insult your potential customers in the process of trying to get them to read more. Very creative.

  • Clever! I liked this!

  • Awesome. Creativity, imagination and humour triumph again, as they always do and always will.

  • If this is not this Generation...It is the Next Generation For sure

  • cool

  • Love this video. So clever and thought provoking.

  • How long did take you to put such an oxymoron together? :O

  • People who only use Apple products are summed up in the first minute, Linux/PC/Apple/Android/Book users are summed up in the second minute.

  • this is so cheesy 

  • In the beginning I thought that O dear what did DK done , then I've understand the idea .. and I really want to thank this Publishing for such books . I bought five books from Dk , The Philosophy book and History And Natural History , Signs and symbols , And the prehistoric life , and the are superlative . Thanks DK

  • Search THE WAYSLIDE GANG TEASER.

  • This video is great.

  • Good video.

  • Thank you for sharing.

  • That's very creative!

  • I think the first version is the one that actually fits

  • I think this is SO clever and SO simple too…..Amazing…..Thanks to whoever created it. AND, even if it is a copy of an AXA insurance ad…..who cares, it doesn't make it any the less brilliant and anyway these creative thoughts are there for everyone, so whoever created it might not have seen the AXA ad in any case.

  • I think this is SO clever and SO simple too…..Amazing…..Thanks to whoever created it.

  • Brilliant!

  • This video is fantastic and has such a beautiful twist to it! Those 107 people must have suffered a sudden seizure to have hit the "dislike" button. - Can't even believe it!

  • youtube.com/watch?v=IbnmJSFrVi­M

    is far better

    

  • I'm a writer, and I truly admire the creativity and voice and all those technical things that writers look for in the work they read/hear. But that's not important. What's important is, it made me cry. Thank you so much. - Welwyn Wilton Katz

  • Bravo! Well stated!

  • very clever, and great. love it! 

  • I love it haha. Really clever ;)

  • Guys, this is an exact copy of an AXA Insurance commercial from 2008. C'mon.

    i rarely comment videos but you deff deserve it.

  • DK's excellent iPad travel apps have arrived! Paris, London and New York City now available. Check them out on iTunes!

  • i loved it

  • clever 

  • genius!!!

    

  • *sniff* That was beautiful. For a moment, I felt as if I was the only one who felt this way. I thought that soon, books would become obsolete, and that people wouldn't really care about learning anymore. But, now after seeing this video, I have a tingle of hope in my eyes.

  • I just love this video! RT'd it.. posted it on FB! Simpel but still very influential.

  • Blatant ripoff of Lost Generation. It's also really not that hard to reverse the meaning of your statements by separating phrases into awkward and sometimes downright wrong places.

  • that aws amazing, they who made this are geniuses

  • Ah! Two sides to a story!

  • I love this! <3

  • Publishing companies and agents are scared shitless. They will lose control when writers self-publish their own ebooks and reap the deserved rewards.

  • I liked it until 1:10. Everything was so true, I fell in love with you but now you broke my heart D: </3

  • Brilliant.

  • Thats so cool!!! I luv these kinda things! WHos Ghandi?? Her accent is awesome!

  • @Mstaylorswiftcrazy

    The man basically freed India from British Occupation by himself.

    Just google his name - there's tons to find out about this guy

  • Thieft of the video "The Truth / La Verdad"

  • Thieft

  • Thieft

  • mentioning Ghandi is like a crutch for people to appear deep and involved while in fact they hardly know anything

  • Dorling Kindersely should be Dorling Kindergarden for baby books

  • great!

  • awesome

  • LOL! Cool!

  • YES!!

  • Brilliant

  • That is one cool video!!! Good job!

  • Gandhi turned a potentially great revolution into a piddling compromise. He is NOT such a hero.

    The "environment" might be in trouble, but not for the reasons the media & politicians are trying to hype.

  • @gunsandbullhorns When have revolutions ever turned out quote on quote 'great?' Compromise is the way to go!

  • Why do you have to be concerned about sustainability? Look at how they try to brainwash us. You do realize global warming is a fraud and even a prominent member of APS resigned over the scam?

  • @germanicus24 You do realize that statements like "global warming is a fraud" really holds no water unless given proper facts (and no, someone resigning is not a proof)? While I'd agree that brainwashing does occur, clearly there are just some things that need our attention and environment is one of them, global ethics another and so on.

  • @p1ens You do realize that "human caused global warming" is an accusation, and it is accusations that need to be proven? And that when the train of development of the proof has already provenly shown itself as bogus, with scientists distorting scientific empirical data to adjust to political agendas, all of which leads to this extremely meaningful resignation of an APS member, it means that the "accusation" can't even stand on its own?

  • @p1ens Global warming does exist, it's just not influenced very much by human beings. Climate change is natural for the planet. How can we presume to know we are to blame, when the culprit of global warming seems to emit more naturally than through human intervention? That is my main argument.

  • @p1ens I do agree that people need to be more careful with the environment as this planet is the only one we have right now. However, global warming has had substantial arguments from both sides. There is both proof and disproof of it. I think instead of trying to scare people into taking care of the earth with something that has so much controversy around its truth we should teach and reward personal responsibility. Positive reinforcement is more effective than negative.

  • @p1ens look at movie, the great global warming swindle : (u can look it up on youtube)

    but mostly, what FACTS do you have global warming is caused by humans ???

    right now global warming is like god. the only reason people believe in it, is cause other people tell them it's true...

  • @p1ens also simple fact, the earth's climate has NEVER been constant.. you know they had vineyards in scotland a few hundred years back, yet almost all outside paintings from the 18th century show snow.

    and yes if temperature's keeps climbing like this some city's might be in perril, and yes we might be able to controll the climate, BUT IT"S NOT OUT FAULT... should we do something about it? yes. but the governments have the message and priority's SO wrong

  • @germanicus24

    Why do you have to be specifically concerned with her concern about sustainability, omitting everything else this message has to offer?:)

  • Who the fuck is Ghandi? GAGA 4EVE!!!

  • probably the most intelligent thing I'll see all day!

  • very clever.

    peace, lardo.

  • @warforoil amen bro

  • JX23, thank you for sending me here, this was so good!

  • @47JJ74 i was sent by JX too!  very cool video. good message too

  • 99 people don't seem to get it.

  • brbrbrbrbrbillliianttt!

    (this is beautiful!)

  • This is ingenious.

  • they want u infront of a kindle so u get more radiation in yr body....

    and cancer in the long run...brain cancer will skyrocket because of mobiles..and computers..

  • I might be a bit behind the times, but who is "Lady GarGar"?

  • Very innovative!

  • They had something like this for an australian politcal campaign... hmmm.... nice!

  • omg very good video, omg

  • wow, very nice job!

  • HotForWords put this on her twitter.

    this is cool!

  • That a wicked video and message!

  • Be Cosmic, ☸ڿڰۣ—☸ڿڰۣ—

  • Very clever! I don't see why the media thinks it can just thrust the most obsene, not talented people at us and that is ok- they are the ones trying to throw our social values down the tubes!

  • This is not aa palindrome...a palindrome is like "racecar" and "mom" they are the same word going forward as going backward!...just sayin' :)

  • Beautiful. :)

  • A Toyota

  • Thank you! :)

  • Absolutely loved it.

    And the accent makes it perfect!

  • What's amazing about this is that the design is just simply not a palindrome, but imitates the effects of one. If you read it forward, you get a feeling of "what... really? lady gaga over the environment?" Once read backwards, it is not a palindrome in that you can read the same thing backwards, but rather there is a different message when read backwards! Now its like "hell yeah, environment over lady gaga"

    That is what is really going on here. Clever!

  • Nothing new, it's well written but the old-concept is getting all of this boreing.

  • Very true!

  • Don't care about books, but you have a nice point! Palindrome wins again to make your point!!

  • that was so.... undescribable

  • fantastic!

  • amazing :)

  • Very nice!

  • Lol I was laughing bitterly at the beginning and thinking "What is wrong with today's youth?" but then when it reversed I was grinning like crazy :P

  • so you slapped yourself

  • Bravo !

    Books rule (at least in my house…)

    Sator arepo tenet opera rotas…

  • not very original/clever. but never the less, a good messege.

  • Genius!

  • Gisteren een hele boeiende presentatie gehad van onze stagiair Tom met wederom deze briljante video....!! Check it out! Blijf kijken tot het einde........

  • That was pretty awesome!

  • Love ya work!

  • omg nicest idea ever!!!! love it!!!!

  • I like these poems that have one meaning when read forward and another meaning when read backward. Thanks for posting.

  • great post equire technologies!

  • Epic Stumble

  • COOOLLLL

  • Very clever video! There is some good advice in their not only for big publishing houses, but for self-publishers like myself too. Social media is a really interesting means of promotion, and word of mouth too of course :)

  • my channel when youtube was created or made

  • <---- This is my future of publishing

    And, yes, that video was very clever

  • I like it, well done =)

  • The text is well done, but it's a copy of Lost Generation, no?

  • Comment removed

  • Personally, I believe the people caring for Lady Gaga clothes by far outnumber those who know what Ghandi did or actually who he even was.

  • @InsertDisk2 What if you don't know either of those things?

  • @InsertDisk2 Know who who was? ;)

  • @InsertDisk2 Maybe because the airwaves are supersaturated with Lady Gaga, and Ghandi doesn't get much airtime. It probably just doesn't occur to a lot of people to look him up.

  • @InsertDisk2 Gandhi (not "Ghandi") is mythologized and overrated; if you actually "know what [Gandhi] did or actually who he even was", then you wouldn't be that impressed.

  • @heirofsalazar It's not about him really, but us... I am sure you got my point.

  • @InsertDisk2

    Pretty sure the population of India is grateful for what he did...

    that's a billion people right there who care about Ghandi, directly or indirectly.

    D

  • @darkdaej And I am pretty sure you wanted to direct that answer to heirofsalazar, if not I don't get the point of your reply.

  • @InsertDisk2

    I was simply saying that Lady Gaga is probably not even known by a billion people - while Gandhi has directly influenced the lives of most people living in India today.

    Honestly, outside of the US and Canada, Lady Gaga isn't that much of a deal...and in any case I fail to see why people actually think that "artist" has any talent...

  • Very smart!!!

    

  • Einfach Grandios! ^^

  • Talk moar:D

  • Wonderful! Excellent and a genuine work of media art!

    I love DK books both for their quality of content and excellence in printing craftsmanship. Bravo!

  • Comment removed

  • that was so cool!

  • hey you rock you should mak a .youtub. k peac out peps

  • very clever!!!

  • Neat!!!

  • What can I say, the seconde part is bullshit, the first part is the truth!

  • really nice palindrome of a message, awesome

  • excellent

  • What makes you think this is not a direct quote?

  • This WOWed me!

  • I think this is a genius method to illustrating that young people have individual voices and minds, and that given the opportunity, they add great value. Keep up the good work. I'd love to work with you.

  • this came on a tv channel in india

  • Great video...but i think but i dont think the text will not come up to everyone it will be same as always. There is needed to be done something more than this for example because this video wont recive those who are into Lady gaga

  • that is really impressive. :O

  • Quite a twist! Loved it.

  • Wow, that was mighty good.

  • Amazingly done!! brilliant :D.. just loved it
