If you’re looking to reach upholders of traditional American values, your best bet might be the Hispanic market. The market is growing: The 2010 Census expected to count a record 50 million Hispanics, or one in every six U.S. residents, meaning the Hispanic population will have increased a stunning 42% from the previous census in 2000. (By comparison, the non-Hispanic population will...

2011 Ford Explorer: Inside the Facebook Reveal
In just a few minutes the 2011 Ford Explorer will be unveiled to the world. The reveal is coming six months prior to the car appearing on lots nationwide, and taking a much different form than any of the car reveals that came before it. That’s because, for the first time ever, Ford is bucking with tradition and turning to the web — with Facebook as the platform — to exhibit its latest...

“3 million phones in 23 days – that’s a pretty strong clip, the fastest sales of an Apple phone to date, Mashable reports. If I do the math, that’s more than 130,000 phones a day. But did anyone in the press notice Google’s little announcement, the day before Apple launched its iPhone 4? This one? The one where Google said, and I quote: ’Every day 160,000 Android-powered devices are activated...

The very last roll of kodachrome film produced by Eastman Kodak was processed recently. It was used by freelance photographer Steve McCurry to take photos of New York City. Steve specifically requested to be the person to use this final roll as he has used the product throughout the years; Kodak announced last year that it would retire Kodachrome, a brand name of color reversal film it had...

The oil industry hasn’t exactly been the darling of social media lately, nor have service-station operators been particularly progressive marketers.

Our Un-Social Social Media
At the end of the day, social media should be a relationship vitamin and sweetener, not a destination. It should deepen bonds, not defuse or soften them. Remember, volume doesn’t always translate into intimacy. Speed doesn’t guarantee meaningful connections. Retweets don’t necessarily confer respect. Friending doesn’t always signal friendliness. As marketers,...

I found this interesting app online and contacted the creators to see what they are doing to get their re-compiled Flex apps into the iphone store.  It appears that they are re-compiling the apps to make them appear that they are native C++ apps and then packaging that up into the .ipa format.  Isn’t this something that Adobe could do as well?? Having stressed the fact that ELIPS...
