| TV or viral? Why not both? Why restrict great campaigns to the online space? | | Pete Davis | | 22 February 2012, 4:04PM |  I’ve been wondering if a fixation with viral is preventing brands from getting the coverage their campaigns deserve?
There used to be something really cool, edgy and subversive about viral marketing. Like someone telling a secret online that suddenly ignited and spread like wildfire to the four corners of the Earth - boom! And there's nothing quite like content sharing on this scale to take a brand global.

| Google is preparing to launch Terminator glasses | | @gordonmacmillan | | 22 February 2012, 11:17AM |  What does the future look like?

| It's a ZyngaVille world, and we're all just living in it | | Emily Hunt | | 21 February 2012, 2:27PM |  Yes, we are all on Facebook. We all on Facebook so much so that I regularly communicate with my mother, sisters, cousins and even grandfather that way. For a lot of my friends and far-flung family, having an email address is almost silly now, as we interact regularly through status updates and photo comments. (For everything else, we have BBM, but that is another story).

| Google+ brand pages growing faster than those on Twitter | | @gordonmacmillan | | 21 February 2012, 10:37AM |  While no one looks like catching Facebook any time soon in terms of the size of support brands enjoy on that social network there is an interesting battle being waged for second place and at the moment Google+ growing significantly faster than its 140 character rival.
