The Very Personal Future of Social Content
05 December 2012, 3:31PM

The Very Personal Future of Social ContentJules Verne, arguably the patriarch of the science fiction genre, dared to dream of a very different future for us all, and countless writers and movie makers have been influenced by his work, and the rest of us in turn by theirs. This is undoubtedly why a future of man and machine in perfect harmony is something that today we simply accept and expect.

All those things that annoy us about Instagram in one funny video
05 December 2012, 1:16PM

I’m a huge fan of Instagram, but once you start to use it a bit you notice things about it. Certain types of picture that crop up more than others. You know what I’m talking about.

05 December 2012, 12:40PM

2012 was an interesting year for the digital marketing industry with the continued rise of Facebook despite a shakey IPO and a concerted, but perhaps doomed fightback from Microsoft's Bing. And let's not forget the interesting new platform of Google+, who celebrated its first birthday in June this year. It may not have caught the public's attention but certainly promises to be very influential in the future of search.

The value of Twitter followers: You can't put a price on them The debate about how much Twitter followers are worth to organisations continues to be a hot one.

A quick guide to Social Media around the world
04 December 2012, 2:36PM

Social Media of the WorldAs every digital marketer knows, there's a lot more to social media strategy than Facebook and Twitter… especially if you're going global. Cultural differences throughout the world have created different social media consumption preferences based on local nuances. Traditional marketing incorporates awareness of cultural sensitivity when dealing with different audiences and it's naive to think the social sphere is any different.

04 December 2012, 1:08PM

SMS at 20: Texting has become a way of life, particularly for children and teenagersThe humble text message, alien to generations before mine but something that has forever changed our primary means of communicating with people in our mobile phone contacts, reaches 20 years old today. Most of the column inches dedicated to its anniversary will touch on the decline of SMS and the uprising of smarter, richer platforms like BBM, WhatsApp, iMessage & Facebook Messenger - but had text messaging not fundamentally changed our mobile behaviour, none of these new technologies would have ever existed.

There are undoubted commercial benefits of using platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. Indeed, any organisation failing to take advantage of social media to advertise, network and raise brand profile will not only miss out on a vast source of business, but risks appearing out of touch and behind the times.
