I was interviewed at Long Island 2010 at the Cube Depot stand by some local news reporter, and I got my picture taken. IDK if she actually went into the competition room, though. What a noob, lol.

Yea, I saw her interviewing Lucas Garron at the scrambling table.
I finished one of my 5x5 solves and looked up. She was just smiling and staring at me on a chair like 10 feet away. Really creepy.

she was extremely creepy. she also interviewed rowe, myself, kyle, and jt. She worked for patch.com, which looks weird, and I haven't found anything on it yet.

In Office Depot's little ad thing, they had a solved cube with "Smarter" written across it. Even had the right color scheme, though yellow could've been orange.

I saw that commercial, and then just today I noticed that they're using that "smarter" cube as part of their logo on their website.

EDIT: And actually... I noticed that while I was looking at Goo Gone for sticker removal.

on the gadget show (UK) the giveaway contest included a rubiks slide, also earlier in that show, a rubiks revolution was in the top 5 gadget toys section, it wasn't in the top 5 (obviously), but it was in the shoot
 
I have seen these ads for ANZ bank which have 'Barbara from bankworld' in them. There's a cube on the desk in this one.

There was an interviewer at Australian Nationals 2010, but she only cared about the fact that there was an 80 year old there that was competing. :fp
 
Yesterday two National TV stations in Germany showed footage of the German Nationals 2010:

A few others from Aus Nats too, but just wanted to point out, "One-handed and blind-folded, the gifted 16-year-old manipulates the cube in about 10 seconds"
"Staggeringly, Zane can solve the 3x3x3 (a cube with nine squares on one face) within about 30 seconds"
Lmao.
Gonna watch the video later.
 
New series of Mythbusters on an episode that just finished 5 minutes ago, on the part where they did the no pain no gain myth, whilst all of the test subjects were waiting, there was some guy playing with a 3x3.
