The Ford Fiesta will be introduced to the United States this coming summer.  In order to get the American public excited about this small, but slick car, Ford is doing something different compared to other automotive companies.  They are using the power of social media to promote the car.

Last year, Ford launched the #fiestamovement where 100 Fiesta Agents were picked across the country to drive the car for 6 months with free gas & insurance.  All these agents were involved in social media, one way or another.  They were allowed to drive the car and do what the wished to it.  All Ford asked for them to do is tell the world about their experience, whether good or bad, and complete 6 missions.   The agents were allowed to pick from a poll of missions.  Some included long scenic road trips, while other support local causes.  Overall, the #fiestamovement was a resounding success with many amazing videos came out from the #fiestamovement.

Well, Ford is doing the #fiestamovement again.  This time, a fellow Chicago Guy is applying to be a Fiesta agent with his friend Karen.  Help John & Karen bring the Ford Fiesta to Chicago by watching the video below and commenting in the video.  If all works out, John will be taking the Chicago Guys for quite a fun ride this summer.

Are you a runner (casual or hardcore)?  If so, how are your shoes?  Do you know when to replace them?  Where do you go to get new shoes?   Footlocker or your neighborhood running store?

John joins up with Fleet Feet Sports and explains the importance of proper running shoes.

Planning to cheer on the 45,000 runners during the Chicago Marathon this year on October 11th?  Do all the running make you hungry?  Fear not!  John shares with you the best places to get food while watching the Chicago Marathon.

(Okay, so the Chicago Marathon is actually 16 days away, but I thought this video was worth sharing.)

Are you manly enough to grow a beard?
