QR codes are everywhere, and lead users' mobile phones to a website or email address. They are not particularly attractive, and something about them is beginning to feel very "first generation" limited. Now a new company called UBleam has taken the idea of printed digital codes a giant step further, and if it catches on, could make QR codes obsolete. The code appears in a ring of attractive bubbles that fit neatly around any round logo or artwork, and offers a company a wide array of customization options in how codes work for an individual user.

Often, complex stories are more easily communicated, understood and, ultimately, remembered, when they take visual form. Aside from data and words, infographics use images and graphical representations. Those key elements – images, words and numbers – operate as a system for simplifying information, revealing new patterns, and producing new knowledge in various fields. In fact, they might not have always been called “infographics,” but info/data-based visualizations have always been around. Via Lauren Moss

A map from the Oxford Internet Institute reveals the geographical distribution of billions of photos uploaded to the popular image-sharing site. Individually, each of those photos shows us something, some flash of a moment on this Earth. All together, they show us something else, a planet pulsing—unevenly—with photo documentation...

As both a photographer and a student of geography this map is highly interesting. With each dot representing locations on the planet that have corresponding images in Flickr. The map is significant for two main reasons, firstly it is a great example of population density and human patters. Secondly, this image is telling of the ability to capture the earth and share its people and cultures across the globe. The accompanying story raising an interesting point, "Individually, each of those photos shows us something, some flash of a moment on this Earth. All together, they show us something else, a planet pulsing—unevenly—with photo documentation." This photo documentation is the writing of art works and the documenting and curation of global cultures. Being able to access these images allows one to not only read art, and read images, but also read and access different cultures and people. The images one posts can be viewed as singular works of art for people to read and interpret and engage with as they may. However, when taken as a whole set of images, Flickr is the story of the planet being written daily by thousands of authors in the form of billions of images. Flickr is a giant curated book of visual history and a visual story of shared cultural experience. When thought of from that context digital tools like Instagram and Flickr are an important cultural and historical resource that allows us to read the world through the visual but also allows us to add to the content and write our own stories within a larger one.

How many marketers can pin down the impact of social media using hard numbers? The following infographic, based largely on results from the Demand Gen Report 2013 B2B Content Preferences Survey and 2012 B2B Buyer Survey shows data to help answer that very important question. Promoting content over social networks is now a vital part of getting a message in front of potential buyers, establishing thought leadership and making the most of content investments. That means understanding which social media channels are most appropriate for different campaigns, and it definitely means understanding how to optimize different types of content for your social campaigns.
