The Digital Story Of The Nativity
In tune with the social media era, Excentric – a Lisbon, Portugal, company – created a video that tells the Christmas story through Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Google, among other popular media tools.
In the last week, the video has been viewed more than 2 million times on YouTube, with most of the viewers liking it.
Miguel Figueiredo, president of Excentric, told CNN that he wanted to illustrate how social media tools can work.
And he used the familiar story of Jesus Christ's birth to demonstrate so.
"The story for us is very familiar, even all the details," he told CNN, noting that Portugal is a predominantly Catholic country. "Of course we involved the people who are more connected to the religion on a more daily basis and they were very participative in the creative process."

Awesome video. Merry Christmas. Three million viewers in two days.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Yeah... the bible doesn’t say exactly when the warning to Joseph actually happened. Joseph might have been told early on to wait up on the Magi and only then to go on the lam to Egypt.
it is fun. Posted on Facebook & sent out emails on it earlier this week.
Nice to see clever aps of technology
