I think flash mobs are really cool, and extremely entertaining to watch. I haven't participated in one, but it sounds like fun! If it were my choice, I'd have everyone interested in participating synchronize their watches and freeze for 5 minutes at either Pike's Place Market or the food court at a mall.
