Nike (DMP) Defining Moments Package… and the law of artificial scarcity.

Submitted by Alex Tabony on 28 January, 2006 - 7:48 pm

Nike Defining Moments Package was recently released. Basically they are shoes but with 110% added media hype, 127% cult following and 232% cool. They were released today and apparently sold out in a few hours.

The Nike defining moments package is a re-release of the Nike Air Jordan XI and VII shoes. Also included are lace locks, dog tags and a photo booklet. Throw it all into a cool gold box and you have the over-the-top Nike DMP (Defining Moments Package).

Along with the shoe release, the DMP will have other apparel including a zip up hooded sweatshirt, and tee shirt. If you buy the sweatshirt you might be lucky enough to find a woman's thong in the pocket... no I am not kidding.

And with many things of this nature, not too surprisingly they are only available here... SURPRISE ONLY RIGHT HERE

Ok, it isn't a surprise at all. Normally I couldn't care less about shoes like this, but in this case they are pretty cool.

Will the Nike Defining Moments Package make me a cool nerd?

Don't answer that.

Firefly Season 2 Survey

This was one of TVs few great series. The show's cancellation was a horrible, painful and stupid move. With enough interest there may be hope though.

Well this is really disturbing. And cool.
A View of Haight Street San Francisco

Is that you?

Uh, so its mapping software. With images. So you are saying, Google Earth... but no, that's not it.

In this case it contains photos taken from the street level with whatever just happened to be there at the time. Yes, it captures the buildings but it also people passing by or whatever. The images are not completely out of date either.

Hey, what is that guy in the car doing?!
