How to make popcorn with your computer

At this point, most of us have seen the horrifying videos of cellphones popping popcorn. Even though everyone seemed to know the videos were fake - the comment streams on YouTube were full of people insisting there were hotplates under the table - I still wrapped my head in tinfoil and the popcorn meme spawned its own mini-meme: people trying to prove how the popcorn videos were faked. One guy dismantled his microwave, another group failed to pop corn but made a steak dinner with cellphones and way too many people actually got together and tried to replicate the original video with their own cellphones. So how did Cardo Systems, a Bluetooth headset-maker, create this viral campaign? Just good ole digital magic. CEO Abraham Glezerman explained how it was done, yesterday on CNN (see video below).
