Adobe partnered with Gigya, a social media management platform, to launch Flash Platform Services, to add more sociability and measurability to developers creating Flash applications. The service’s three core principles: Distribution, Collaboration, and Social, aim to take Flash viral and social in the online distribution of Flash applications over platforms like Web, desktops and mobile devices. Available later this year, users will be able to “Flash” forward with the service that enables them to share, collaborate and facilitate real-time application distribution, tracking, and monetization to get one solid application that can ultimately deploy over 70 social networks and services. 98% of PCs with Internet connections are equipped with Adobe's Flash software, but applications are not always installed.

SaaS Hits the Sweet Spot for Business Intelligence (Intelligent Enterprise)
|
|
Posted: 10/22/2009
|
|
|
|
|
You’d be hard-pressed to describe a major business intelligence deployment as fast, flexible, and affordable. Which is exactly why BI service software (SaaS) is primed to change business intelligence. SaaS-based BI vendors aim to get the implementation process off the ground in days rather than the months it usually takes. Shaklee CIO, Ken Harris, views SaaS as more than a stopgap to on-premises BI software deployments. Harris deploys SaaS to stretch his small IT staff and budget by storing data in a PivotLink-hosted data warehouse and using report and query tools to evaluate the data across a network that has expanded from 50 employees to as many as 5,000 independent business people who sell Shaklee products. The cost is perfectly reasonable for small to mid-size companies with limited IT resources.

Doritos iD3: Unveils the Mysterious Flavor of London’s Underworld (Digital Arts)
|
|
Posted: 10/08/2009
|
|
|
|
|
Dubbed iD3, Doritos’ newest flavor plays on the mysteriously hard-to-identify flavors often found in packaged foods. To launch the savory snack, Doritos tapped rehabstudio to build an interactive advergame set among the grit and grime of London’s seedy crime world. The hook? Identify the exact flavor for the chance to win £20,000. Rather than going straight to the masses, Doritos engaged rehabstudio to design an interactive experience using elements of film and narrative to lead gamers through a suite of ‘choose your own adventure’ options. Utilizing a sophisticated back end system, the game pushes its cutting-edge technology to the max and extends beyond Doritos’ website. The 3D game uses the Facebook Connect app, allowing developers to create a personalized advergame that draws content from and links back to a user’s Facebook profile.

A Candid Conversation with OpenID’s David Recordon (.net)
|
|
Posted: 10/08/2009
|
|
|
|
|
Six Apart’s David Recordon, co-developer of OpenID, sat down with Oliver Lindberg to discuss his vision for the open web. The web is becoming more social and Recordon emphasizes that critical build-outs must enable users to interact between multiple sites without asking them to recreate accounts requiring repetitive data and tasks. OpenID enables users to sign in to thousands of online services with the same digital identity, which ultimately means users can access and share information from across various platforms. With its focus on user experience and usability, as well as benchmarking successful efforts like
Facebook Connect, OpenID is carving a path toward mainstream technology by engaging major stakeholders like Microsoft and Google. A few months ago Recordan announced the Open Web Foundation, whose initial goal is to create open specifications for the web that anyone can implement for free.

Transforming Innovation: New Technology. New Speed. New Price. New Customers. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)
|
|
Posted: 10/08/2009
|

|
|
Technology continues to transform the face of innovation at breakneck speed. Where it used to take major moxie, manpower and minutes to launch comprehensive testing campaigns, the newfound ability to incorporate new Web features faster and immediately measure consumer response means companies can now achieve rapid fire results for next to nothing cost. The result? Innovation–the lifeblood of growth–is not only more efficient and cheaper, it also more accurately pinpoints behavior to identify exactly what consumers want. Sophisticated tracking systems enable businesses–from web-based companies to retailers–to exploit new information technology to conduct testing and collect meaningful consumer data to ultimately capture even more consumer spending.

Report Shows That B-to-B Marketers Harness the Power of Social Media (BtoB Online)
|
|
Posted: 09/11/2009
|
|
|
|
|
B-to-B marketers tend to dedicate a greater portion of their budgets to newer media platforms, so it’s no surprise that the report, “Harnessing the Power of Newer Media Platforms for More Effective Marketing,” shows a dramatic increase in social media among b-to-b marketers. The updated report from BtoB and the ANA (Association of National Advertisers)documents that 66% percent of marketers surveyed currently employ social media, up from 20% in 2007. An overwhelming 57% now target social media, a 42% increase over respondents two years ago. Blogging and mobile are the “newer media” tactics not currently being employed, but respondents claim they’ll begin using both in the next year. LinkedIn is chief among the social networks utilized by b-to-b marketers, while Facebook ranked highest overall. Viral video and podcasts are chalked up to be the next go-to b-to-b marketing tactic over the next year.

For many companies it may seem impossible to get measurable results from social media campaigns, but Intuit (INTU) appears to be profiting from its new social community, Quickbooks

Maximize your Web Site’s Mobilization with CSS (Practical eCommerce)
|
|
Posted: 09/11/2009
|
|
|
|
|
With mobile internet use and mobile-friendly browsing on the rise, expert Armando Roggio is
encouraging businesses to consider his “Web Design Tips” before redesigning their e-commerce sites to address their mobilization. Simple techniques such as adding a second style sheet or slightly revising a page’s HTML can enhance mobile shopping experiences
without wasting time to register new mobile domains or create mobile-specific styles. The best
solution? According to Roggio, it’s more efficient to redesign your current site to render well
across multiple platforms including mobile, desktop, RSS, and more, using CSS. To illustrate his advice, Roggio creates a home page for an e-commerce comic book store with an instructional video demonstrating how to create mobile-friendly background images.

Is Real-time Internet Worth All the Buzz? (New Media Knowledge)
|
|
Posted: 08/27/2009
|
|
|
|
|
You may be wondering what’s behind all the real-time Internet buzz. Before you determine the real worth of real-time Internet, consider Dell’s success with their @DellOutlet platform on Twitter, the front-runner in the real-time game. The company has experienced real financial gain (to the Tweet of $3 million dollars in revenue) from real-time marketing, “Tweeting” followers a
mixture of exclusive content and time specific discount incentives. According to Joe Hughes of Yomego there are two key elements to real-time Internet: (1) practically no delay between composition and publishing and (2) the ability for users to discover content in real-time. With an estimated three to four hundred million people currently using some version of real-time Internet (across platforms like Facebook, Friendfeed, Yauba and jabber), the numbers are too large to ignore as merely a fad.

Shopping-enabled Display Ads are Blooming Success for 1-800-Flowers.com (Internet Retailer)
|
|
Posted: 08/27/2009
|
|
|
|
|
Success bloomed for 1-800-Flowers.com during its 2009 Mother’s Day e-commerce campaign,
resulting in a 41% spike in sales per impression compared to traditional display ads. The
campaign enabled consumers to purchase directly from “buy” buttons planted into display ads
powered by Alvenda. According to Alvenda, consumer interaction among the ads, called Shoplets, flourished at more than 10.5 times greater than traditional banner ads. To accommodate the traffic spike and speed up response times, Alvenda shifted the bulk of the
floral Shoplet campaign content over to Akamai Technologies Inc’s content management server. “We believe the majority of future online sales will happen offsite. Customers will be able to shop with brands wherever they happen to be, whether they’re on YouTube, a favorite blogger web site, or on Facebook,” says Wade Gerten, CEO of Alvenda.

Akamai Technologies Inc.’s “State of the Internet Report” revealed that U.S. broadband adoption is on the rise, with East coast states tallying the most broadband Internet connections for the first quarter of 2009. Eastern states garnered eight of the top ten slots, topped by Delaware, where 62% of households have high-speed broadband web access, a 6.7% year over-year increase.

The report also states that one-fifth of global internet connections operate at speeds greater than 5 Mbps, up significantly from the previous year. “The implication… is that Internet retailers can continue to add more rich media content to their site... to bring buyers and keep them on the site longer,” says David Belson, editor of the report.

New technology is making it easier than ever to follow your friends’ digital footprints as they trek across the web. Footprints, a gadget for Google’s Friend Connect service, was created by a Japanese programmer to reveal who’s visiting your Web site and when.

Users will have a reasonable degree of control when using Footprints, including the ability to erase their footprints each time a particular site is visited. The privacy controls also enable visitors to hide their profiles from the sites they visit. Further safeguarding privacy, visitors’ information will only appear if they are signed in and registered users of Friend connect.

Innovation is the golden key to gaining competitive advantage. China is redefining the innovation landscape with its large, adaptable population; affinity for improvisation and reverse engineering; and mature industrial clusters poised to lead the supply chain.

With WiFi spreading like wildfire, cellular companies can no longer ignore the technology without ignoring consumer demand for higher speeds, better coverage and performance, and low- or no-cost access.
