Yesterday I posted Part 1 of my Top Viral Video picks for 2011, which was a great trip down memory lane. And here is today's list, for the Top 10 Branded Online Videos. There are some excellent videos here like the Kia hamster dance and Coca-Cola's Happiness Truck, and I applaud the brands that made my list, as their creativity and bravery produced memorable, shareable content. So again, in no particular order, I present the best of the online video best:
