Glasslandia Viewer Wins Samsung Chromebook

Melville, NY January 2, 2014- Brian S. Cohen of East Setauket, is the winner of the Glasslandia, first Google Glass reality show, Facebook trivia contest.

Mr. Cohen won a Samsung Chromebook and a spot on Hilary Topper’s BlogTalk Radio show, Hilary Topper on Air, after successfully answering each Glasslandia trivia question correctly. The contest, which ran from November 19th through December 13th, required participants to answer several questions related to each Glasslandia episode.

“To celebrate the success of our Google Glass reality show, we created a trivia contest and invited our viewers to participate,” said Hilary Topper, CEO of HJMT Public Relations Inc. and star of Glasslandia. “We had an overwhelming response to our contest from Glasslandia’s 10,000 plus viewers, but Brian’s knowledge of Glasslandia deemed him the winner.

Glasslandia, aired weekly starting October 16th every Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. for six weeks via the YouTube Channel, HJMTPR. Glasslandia invited the public to take a sneak peek into HJMT Public Relations Inc., a leading public relations and social media agency and Ms. Topper’s life as a small business owner. All episodes were filmed using Google Glass and traditional video with the incorporation of Google Glass photos and apps. Throughout the series, viewers see Topper interacting with her family, working out with her trainer to creating digital campaigns with her clients.

“Winning a contest like this feels great and how it came to be is a perfect example of how giving to others, creates an ever widening circle,” said Mr. Cohen. “This started because I climbed a mountain and two women helped us when we needed assistance, and now I have a Chromebook and a better understanding of the Google Glasses and the excellent team of HJMT.”
