A better way to infographic
Image
Great work from the Mizuno team to launch a piece of research and related infographic to find out what would happen "if everybody ran". In this era of data overload, I like the approach they took, the findings are interesting and the infographic below is great. However, check out the... Continue reading

South by Southwest 2014 - Looking Back, Moving Ahead
South by Southwest (SXSW) is almost a month in the rearview mirror at this point, but for me it takes about as long to allow everything that I saw to sink in. So I wanted to recap some of my key takeaways about the industry and the event itself. I... Continue reading

Micro is the new small. Progress, one micro step at a time.

A couple of weeks ago I attended Jeff Pulver's #140 Conference in Detroit. I have to say that it was one of the more inspired gatherings of people that I've been to in some time. The more conferences I attend the more I find that any conference with the words... Continue reading

Technology redefines categories and experience
Image
I was not waiting on line at 5am for the iPad like some other people around the US. It's a device without a niche for me right now. Think what you will of it, however, the technology behind the iPad and similar devices is helping to redefine categories that have... Continue reading

Five simple guidelines for social engagement
Image
I have talked about the importance of developing and implementing social media policies within organizations previously on this blog. These policies not only protect the company, but go a long way to educating its employees on what the implications and ramifications are of engaging in social channels. I've seen a...

Search + social media, the evolving landscape
Image
You have undoubtedly heard about Google and Bing announcing partnerships with Twitter/Facebook/et. al. to include real time social media results into their search indexes. However, even if you did hear about it, I think few people have seen what it looks like in Google's environment, so I recorded this short... Continue reading

Dean -- thanks for your POV. It's an interesting play, right? There is some upside to Google doing this, but I do see your point. They lend some cred where solo ventures may not get the traction they need.

Scott -- Thanks for the comment and the MM link. It's definitely coming, may not look like it does now, but the key will be (to Marc's point) if other technology like GPS+visual recognition make this obsolete. Time will tell Marc -- I'll do a little more digging on the Goggles technology, it's an exciting time in the Place+data+experience space.

Hey Gavin -- Did you see Zuckerberg's response? Here is the link http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=54434097130 It's as if they launch everything in a vacuum and then spin their way out of it. Ownership and reselling of content isn't cool and I think they'd back off of that given the uproar just as they did with Beacon, et. al.

Great advice Lewis. Keep it coming, this is invaluable information for people looking to write, but too intimidated by the process. You're guiding us through. (Maybe an ebook on the topic in the future?)
