On the YouTubes: An Old-Fashioned Scavenger Hunt, With New-Fangled Selfies


If you've got nothing better to do this weekend, our BFFs at the Reston Museum have this on offer: a fancy YouTube video "scavenger hunt," with 18 locations from the upcoming movie "The Reston Story" (not to be confused with Reston: The Video Contest). Alls you got to do is find each of the locations in the video, identify it, take a "selfie," as the kids today like to say, and.... profit, as the Internet nerds today like to say.

Actually, the winner gets tickets to the April 5 premiere of "The Reston Story."

We borrowed a friend's copy of MS Paint fancy cellular telephone camera and got a bit into the selfie spirit ourselves:

1234

We'll be waiting for our tickets and complementary popcorn, the end.

  2. Clip #2 gave me an acid flashback. A co-worker I know actually has a tie that looks like this. Snappy.

    2. Are "The Herndon Story" and "The Sterling Story" English with Spanish subtitles or Spanish with English subtitles?
