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. I’ve used it to parse all manner of trending memes in the entertainment/media/tech brand space, from Apple (“A Close Look at Apple’s Latest Astonishing Twitter Takeover”) to “Inception” (“How ‘Inception’ Became the New World Cup”) to Foursquare (“The Consumer as Waldo: Foursquare, Twitter and Facebook Care Where You Are; Do You?”) to a certain unavoidable Canadian crooner (“Behold — and Fear! — the Awesome Social-Media Power of Justin Bieber Beliebers!”)….Read Full Story

Tis the Season to be Shopping: How Virtual Goods Are Impacting Holiday Shopping Culture
It’s the holiday season once again, and many people around the world are in the throes of a culturally mandated gift giving frenzy. Stuff! Things! Sales! Stampedes! The senseless abuse of beleaguered retail employees! Of course this year, more people than ever will forgo all of that insanity and choose to shop online instead, preferring instead to make their selections quietly in their underwear at 4am, endlessly surfing from site to site on an eggnog fueled bender trying to find the best deal possible (that will also deliver on time)….Full story here
Online Marketing Today – A Lot of Research, A Lot of Psychology
When I went into marketing/communications in the 80’s, things were simpler. I spoke 5 languages, which pushed me into this field. What else could I do, be a translator? Not on your life. Not when I could be creative, come up with quantitative studies and research why / how people buy.
It seemed simple, right? You have a product and you have to figure out a way to sell said product. You had magazine ad space, TV commercials, newspapers… every day, everywhere you looked, you’d see some form of advertisement. Eventually, we became desensitized to print and TV marketing – the traditional ways.
The Internet wasn’t used as it is today (although it still had some traction). The World Wide Web was the Wild Wild West. It was a “small” little marketplace, with a minor audience for client product promotion…..Read more

You’ve heard the stories of entrepreneurs creating social networking sites from their garage, generating millions of dollars. You’ve heard the stories of the person who was laid off from their job, who then turned to the Internet to provide their skills, resulting in earning a full-time income from home. Also, you’ve also got the stories where people are generating full-time incomes by being the middle man and promoter of other business owners’ products and services. These are stories where regular people, young and old, have turned to the Internet to generate a second income, build a business, or have the opportunity to join the ranks of entrepreneurship and free them from working for someone else….Read more

- Unicode over 60 percent of the web February 3, 2012Computers store every piece of text using a “character encoding,” which gives a number to each character. For example, the byte 61 stands for ‘a’ and 62 stands for ‘b’ in the ASCII encoding, which was launched in 1963. Before the web, computer systems were siloed, and there were hundreds of different encodings. Depending on the encoding, C1 could mean any of […]
- Mind the Gap: Encouraging women to study engineering February 2, 2012Women make up more than half the global population, but hold fewer than a third of the world’s engineering jobs. In the U.S., female students comprise fewer than 15 percent of all Advanced Placement computer science test takers. Even in high-tech Israel, few girls choose computer science. Not only is this a loss to companies like Google and everyone who bene […]
