While digital gives you the opportunity to reach out to millions with a single click, it also poses a problem: if not monitored properly, it will not be as effective as face-to-face communication.

83 incredible examples of social media marketing

83 incredible examples of social media marketing | Latest Social Media News | Scoop.it

Social media marketing has, over the past few years, gone from something practiced by a few early adopters to a crucial part of most big advertising campaigns. For proof of that, you only have to look at the results of a recent Gartner survey, which showed that most people now see social as being nearly as important as a corporate website and more traditional forms of online advertising.

This is a keeper... Oodles of links. 

 

The awards have just announced the nominees for the 2013 edition. While there is still a strong US presence, emerging market countries such as Brazil, Russia and China are increasingly evident among the nominees.

 

Among the more interesting campaigns from those nominees is one called “You are Blind” from the Hungry Boys agency in Russia, which aims change the treatment of blind children, by giving people insight into what they go through. The primary way of doing this was with a website that challenged people to navigate a character through a virtual city using only sound.

CLARITY Clears the Path to a See-Through Brain

A new approach to brain imaging called CLARITY could revolutionize how scientists study the brain. Researchers replaced a mouse brain’s opaque fats with a clear gel that supports neural tissue, resulting in a transparent organ with all its internal structures still intact and visible for study. Unhindered observation of the entire brain’s neural circuitry will help “clarify” scientists’ understanding of how this still-mysterious organ functions.

Written in response to Is SEO Dying? Yes It Is http://www.digitalgossips.com/2013/05/is-seo-dying-yes-it-is.html by Munaz Anjum (@munazanjum) this post is an answer to a friend's question.


J. Nolfo (@JNolfo) asked if I thought SEO was dead or dying. The short answer is YES, but I did add a sixth force to the five SEO Killers Anjum noted:

* Mobile.
* Tech.
* Google.
* Social.
* Us.


The Master Blaster controlling force, I argue in the linked post on @NewMediaLeaderz is E N T R O P Y.
