– StarHub redefines hubbing –<\/em> Singapore, 17 August 2011<\/strong> – StarHub is poised to cement its position as Singapore\u2019s most innovative info-communications company, with the launch of Singapore\u2019s first interactive commercial! Dubbed Love Tail, StarHub\u2019s latest commercial, will deploy both innovation and technologies to engage consumers like never before, and demonstrate how hubbing can excite, engage and empower!<\/p>\n Hubbing Redefined<\/strong><\/p>\n StarHub started the concept of hubbing in 2002, and the term represented the convergence of mobile, pay TV and online platforms. Hubbing has evolved over the years and in 2006, StarHub defined the Hub as a type of person \u2013 an individual who receives, consumes and shares all the things he or she loves.<\/p>\n \u201cNow it\u2019s time to redefine hubbing!\u201d announced Neil Montefiore, CEO of StarHub. \u201cToday Hubbing represents seamless enjoyment. Consumers can utilise as many modes of communications as they like to give or receive information. How then does StarHub come in? We are the social catalyst to that seamless life, and the enabler that provides products and services to make life much more exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n Love Tail \u2013 Singapore\u2019s first interactive commercial<\/strong><\/p>\n Love Tail, premiering on StarHub TV and YouTube on 26 August 2011, is a key part of StarHub\u2019s new Life.

Starring Sparky \u2013 Singapore\u2019s most famous and much-loved Jack Russell \u2013 Love Tail promises an entertainment experience like no other.<\/p>\n Using StarHub\u2019s newly launched free Hub It! app for iPhones and Androids, viewers will be able to \u2013 for the first time ever \u2013 explore the world within a commercial by interacting with the characters and the scenes on TV with their mobiles, an experience that is much like role playing computer games. This interactive adventure blurs the lines between viewers\u2019 mobiles, TVs and computers, bringing the StarHub promise of seamless excitement to life.<\/p>\n Viewers just need to start up the Fetch-A-Reward camera and align it with the commercial on TV or YouTube to kick-start the interactive experience. From 26 August to 10 September, clues and hints will be revealed on the Hub It! app and StarHub\u2019s Facebook page. These tips will help the public locate hidden scenes, tasks, videos, games and more within the Love Tail commercial that may possibly lead them to other StarHub platforms. Each clue will enable the public to unlock a map that will eventually lead them to Sparky\u2019s dream girl.<\/p>\n Not only is the experience rewarding, StarHub has also put together an impressive prize pool that includes $10,000 cash, a MacBook Air, an iPad 2, a BlackBerry PlayBook, a Samsung 3D TV and a Bose Sound System for viewers who interact with its new commercial.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are very excited to roll out Love Tail and harness cutting-edge interactive TV technology to take traditional storytelling to a whole new level,\u201d Neil enthused. \u201cTechnology has become such an integral part of our lives.
