On November 26, Yahoo will unveil the Yahoo Shopping Snow Globe, an interactive "winter wonderland" located in Times Square.
The snow globe will feature Yahoo's Comparison Shopping Santa and his many elves, eager to show consumers how to search and compare products on Yahoo.
This Yahoo! Shopping snow globe will also feature custom-designed Wi-Fi Internet kiosks instant online shopping, as well as free digital photos with Santa inside the world's largest interactive snow globe. All photos will be uploaded, where consumers can view their photos and send a link to the site to friends and family directly from the snow globe.
"When Yahoo asked Absolute Hollywood to create the world's largest interactive snow globe, we were thrilled to take on the challenge of breaking our own size record and create this revolutionary snow globe for the event," said James Lanier, Director, Absolute Hollywood. "We wanted our snow globe to symbolically reflect the scale of the shopping experience on Yahoo, as well as provide this visual type of wonderment that has delighted children and adults for generations."
"This event emphasizes the fun, ease and ultimate convenience of online shopping, whether people start shopping now or wait until the last minute," said Rob Solomon, VP and GM, Yahoo Shopping. "Powered by Yahoo's award-winning Product Search, Yahoo Shopping is the online destination for anyone searching for the right gift at the right price this holiday season."
