Facebook gets 3D

Xxx 

Online-Offline hits the breakfast table with a new mug you can order, featuring all your very own Facebook friends. (Number seven on How to build a social media campaign perhaps)

This is the brainchild of California-based CrowdedInk. CrowdedInk's Friends social mug can be embellished with the customer's friends from either Facebook or Twitter. The ordering process begins when customers sign in to whichever of the two social sites they're interested in. From there, they can select up to 184 friends to go on their mug. They can also choose the mug style, colour and size—ceramic, stainless and glass options are all available—as well as customizing it with the images or text of their choice. 

We're still at the beginning of off-on integration but the trend for creating one-of-a-kind embellishments on real-world goods from user's online content is growing.
