Why Real-Time Marketing Matters Now
For more than a year now, the Trendrr Chart of the Week on AdAge.com has served as a fascinating barometer of the real-time information economy. The chart, which runs most Wednesdays (and which, speaking of charts, invariably lands in the AdAge.com “Most Read” Top 5), utilizes data from Trendrr, a digital- and social-media tracking service.

The New Reality of Mobile
We’re all trying to “figure it out” – i.e., create a competitive advantage and valuable customer experience via the mobile channel. Naturally, we turn to 19th century philosopher George Santayana, best known for the quote, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
