Setting KPI’s is a bitch

This is a problem I’ve been struggling with for a long time, something Iain and I had discussed a lot in the past but always reached some dead end. I’m surprise how thin is the blogversation around it (well not really as anything around digital measurement is still pretty rudimentary) Here is the situation: So [...]

Hitler and remix culture

I won’t go on about the wonders of the remix culture as smarter people had done it already (watch Faris and Lessig) What strikes me every time I come across a new cracking Hitler mash-up (there are hundreds of them now and they are cross cultural and cross communal) is the power of non-verbal communications. [...]

I’m a social media specialist…get me out of here

I’m so bored with social media wearisome chatter I just got a rather daft idea for a new reality TV (if you’re not familiar with I’m a celebrity get me out of here look here) Take 15 uber annoying social media specialists for a series of daunting social media tasks: 1.

Think for example of Hay Fever Hat, a strap-on roll of toilet paper that provides allergy sufferers with a continuous supply of tissue [...]

Truth in advertising

Ads usually suffer from lack of credibility. They always show shiny happy people especially in all health & beauty categories. That’s why I was rather surprised from the image of the lady in that banner for some diet. I waited to see something changing but nope. It’s just a static image. She clearly suffers. She’s [...]

I Made Tea by Joe

This is just brilliant. In fact, the last time something made me so happy was this one.

Goodbye, friend

We’ve been together for almost 7 years which means you are now 140 years old (It is a common belief that 1 human year is equal to 20 handset years). And in all these years we spent together, you never once disappointed me. You were always there – basic, solid, bold, rough, resilient and, extremely [...]

Odd Search Fame

At least once a week I’m LOLing when looking at search terms people googled and landed on this blog. This one is the best ever (click to enlarge). WTF??? Now that’s what I call organic SEO
