Site Lets People See How They'll Look In 2057
POSTED: 5:59 pm EST January 21, 2007
Do you ever get the feeling that your job will be the death of you?
A new Web site, AgeOMatic.com, promises to demonstrate how working in a stressful office environment can literally age you.
CareerBuilder.com said its new interactive viral experience cleverly captures the sentiment motivating workers to seek out new opportunities in the New Year: the desire for a better job and a better place to work.
Age-o-Matic uses new technology to age people's photos an average of 50 years, and then allows them to e-mail ancient talking versions of themselves to unsuspecting recipients, according to a press release. After uploading a photo, each visitor is asked to answer a few simple questions about their work environment.
One example: "At work they call me: a) Hey You b) El Stupido or c) No. 655321."
Age-o-Matic instantly produces dramatically altered photos depicting how they will look if they stay in their current positions. They can send talking e-mail messages from their aged selves to friends, family, co-workers and even the boss.
CareerBuilder said Age-o-Matic is the first site to allow an uploaded photo to be aged, as well as integrated into talking avatar technology.
"With Age-o-Matic, we will continue to focus on the theme of job dissatisfaction," said Richard Castellini, vice president of Consumer Marketing at CareerBuilder.com. "We expect the experience to resonate well as workers re-evaluate and seek out new jobs in the New Year."
Age-o-Matic builds on the Monk-e-Mail, which CareerBuilder said has logged more than 83 million plays, over 31 million user sessions and nearly 12 million unique visitors since its launch a year ago. Monk-e-Mail is based on a common expression about work: "I work with a bunch of monkeys." Age-o-Matic is based on its own expression of dissatisfaction: "This job is going to kill me!"
"We've always known that bad jobs can make us 'feel' old, and Age-o-Matic has created an environment where dissatisfied employees can actually 'see' how their bad jobs are impacting them," said Marshall Ross, CK's Chief Creative Officer.
According to a nationwide survey of 6,169 workers by CareerBuilder.com, one-in-five workers reported they plan to change jobs in 2007. When evaluating potential employers, workers cited a good work environment as one of the top three factors that are most critical to them.
TweetLOL age o matic. i didnt do it but it is a funny name.
