This Week @ Fifty & Five 6.22.12

Summer is officially here as we celebrated the Summer solstice on Wednesday of this week. This was a week full of buzz in the social media world. We found a vending machine in South Africa that is activated by Twitter. Take a look at some of these cool Google+ covers for brands. Did you know that it has been reported that 10% of the pictures taken in history have been taken in the last year? Wow. Don’t believe Youtube is worth investing in? Well, they look to net over $2.4 billion in revenue this year. I am a believer! As gas prices continue to drop for the summer, check out this cool app that helps you monitor traffic and now offers you a discount on some gas prices. And for our viral video of the week, check out this hockey mom who attempts to break up a brawl on the ice. Was she able to do it?
