The Canadian Tourism Commission (CTC) has launched interactive murals to inspire Americans to book a Canadian vacation. These murals have taken over the streets of New York, Chicago and Los Angeles this summer - pulling content from Twitter to display real-time updates from and about Canada.

The digital storescapes celebrate the CTC's comprehensive social media strategy, and follow its 2009 Marketer of the Year award from Marketing Magazine.

Now they've released the first Crysis 2 trailer, which is titled "The Wall", onto the Internet for your viewing pleasure. There's no gameplay footage just yet, but I'm very impressed:
