[Latest Buzzboard post on the contest: Video contest: we have a winner]

Nortel is fusing traditional advertising with grass-roots web 2.0 media in an effort to find the best Nortel Energy Efficiency ad.

For fun, we asked Nortel employees to create their own homemade videos highlighting the energy efficiency benefits of Nortel products, and we picked three videos for your viewing (and voting) pleasure. Additionally, you’ll see two new professionally-created Nortel commercials which are running on CNN.

Now we are asking you to let your inner advertising exec take over. Watch the videos and vote for your favorite. The video with the most votes by Friday, September 12th will be the winner, and will be used as part of Nortel’s online energy efficiency advertising campaign.

Below are all the competing videos. Watch them all and remember to vote for your favorite using the voting box at the top right of this page.
