That's so interesting, LucaVanin. We do tend to take our own cultural language for granted, and maybe that is also the lesson in storytelling. Check how it sounds in a different language. I so appreciate everyone's comments, too. Hopefully this sheet will be helpful.

We’re in the midst of a revolutionary shift in the enterprise data center that has not been seen in decades. At its core, this shift is being driven by the rise of “soft” infrastructure. Virtual machines and virtual networks and storage can be provisioned and reconfigured rapidly and in a highly automated way, rather than being limited by the constraints of hardware infrastructure that was built for a much less dynamic environment. The “software-defined data center,” as it is commonly known, has business repercussions that go well beyond transforming data center technology. It has shaken long-term alliances between technology giants. Vendors are scrambling to reposition themselves to best exploit this new era of soft IT. Via Nicolas Weil Delete the scoop?

For decades, all it took for a hotel to host meetings and events was a ballroom, an overhead projector, and a catering kitchen.
That changed dramatically with the new century, which brought not only the widespread use of personal computers and cell phones but a new generation of business people for whom face-to-screen communication and multi-gadget multitasking comes second nature.

Twitter continues to forge closer ties with the marketing world with the announcement of a major new deal with Publicis media unit Starcom MediaVest Group.Terms of the deal, the first of its kind between Twitter and a giant media buying and planning entity, aren’t being discussed in detail but it is described as a multiyear agreement worth hundreds of millions of dollars. According to Starcom MediaVest CEO Laura Desmond, the two companies were looking “to create a partnership that would shape the future of the industry.”...
... the heart of the deal was more about the decision to cocreate three major initiatives.
The first is a social TV lab: “Our team and Bluefin Labs (which Twitter purchased earlier this year) will come together, put mutual skin in game, and create a social TV lab that we think will give our clients unprecedented real-time data on how consumers are watching, buying and the conversations that amplify brand messages."
Second, an in-tweet mobile survey-- “real time dipstick measurement of what people are watching and thinking and doing,” says Desmond--that will yield data that can be used to shape messaging...."

Nothing was more welcome after day 1 of EBU BroadThinking 2013 than a good night of sleep, in order to reset the tech hype counters and make some mental room for two new sessions on broadcasters’ CDNs and the latest advances of hybrid platforms. What would be the best broadcasters’ CDN architectures today, what would be their smartest (green) evolutions, would CDN-Federation standards finally bring interop reality over hopes, what would be the most advanced deployments and future of HbbTV, how it compares with YouView in the UK : day 2 agenda was looking quite attractive – and indeed the presentations were packed with valuable informations and experience feedbacks.
So here is the recap of the most interesting DAY 2 presentations and a short report on some insightful demos that were playing on the EBU floor right to the conference. Via Nicolas Weil, Claude Seyrat
