My friend Christian interviewed the TN radio station that got in trouble with the Associated Press for embedding video from the AP YouTube Channel. This should never have erupted in the first place, but since we’re having a conversation about the AP, why don’t we really examine what it is – a highly politically [...]]]> http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/social-media/ap-extinct/feed/ 0 http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/information-revolution/ http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/information-revolution/#comments Fri, 27 Mar 2009 03:53:43 +0000 admin http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/?p=2292

This video explores the changes in the way we find, store, create, critique, and share information. This video was created as a conversation starter, and works especially well when brainstorming with people about the near future and the skills needed in order to harness, evaluate, and create information effectively Post from: Paradigm Gearshift ]]> http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/information-revolution/feed/ 0 http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/play-is-vital-at-any-age/ http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/play-is-vital-at-any-age/#comments Fri, 27 Mar 2009 03:41:09 +0000 admin http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/?p=2290

http://www.ted.com A pioneer in research on play, Stuart Brown says humor, games, roughhousing, flirtation and fantasy are more than just fun. Plenty of play in childhood makes for happy, smart adults — and keeping it up can make us smarter at any age.

Its hard to be a BIG KID. This video blog rather brilliantly sums up how it feels for me to be one of the younger adults (at heart) in my families over the holidays. As a non-parent, surrounded by a sea of adorable, free range munchkins (I’ve always recommended a tag and release program) I have [...]]]> http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/ah-kid/feed/ 1 http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/dell-millions-twitter/ http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/dell-millions-twitter/#comments Wed, 17 Dec 2008 22:26:33 +0000 admin http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/?p=69

I’m in Nashville this week (Nashvegas to us natives) and I have to say I’m proud to see some progressive (and $$ profitable $$) thinking coming out of my old hometown. SocialMedia blog has an excellent breakdown of how Dell uses Twitter to listen and speak to specific segment groups (Gamers, Small Business Owners, IT Decisionmakers, [...]]]> http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/dell-millions-twitter/feed/ 0 http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/the-death-of-the-cpm-does-online-brand-advertising-work/ http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/the-death-of-the-cpm-does-online-brand-advertising-work/#comments Thu, 11 Dec 2008 20:28:27 +0000 admin http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/?p=67

From Social Media Blog: http://blog.socialmedia.com/the-death-of-the-cpm/ How Do We Measure Success? If CPMs isn’t a good measure of success then what is? Metrics must be geared toward a goal. Then the format is optimized around the goal. In search advertising it’s traffic, or lead generation. In direct response it’s conversions. But CPG (consumer packaged goods) brands don’t need more traffic [...]]]> http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/the-death-of-the-cpm-does-online-brand-advertising-work/feed/ 0 http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/ugc-lesson-of-the-day-symbiotic-promotion/ http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/embedding/ugc-lesson-of-the-day-symbiotic-promotion/#comments Tue, 02 Dec 2008 15:42:34 +0000 admin http://www.paradigmgearshift.com/social-media/?p=65

GamesRadar created this mashup of the new Grand Theft Auto IV (III will always have a special place in my heart) using the title music from the Naked Gun series. They successfully parodied the Cop-Show parody’s opening sequence.

Facebook Connect Readies for Broader Distribution with Digg and Hulu From ReadWriteWeb: If the initial development race of Web 2.0 centered around “building a better social network” then the next phase will certainly focus on extending the reach of existing social networks beyond their current domain.

HULU, HULU, HULU.. that’s all you are going to hear about in the next year, and a large part of the reason for that is the enormity of their video views. The networks are obviously going to take the credit, claiming that Hulu’s success is a direct result of their professional content.
