Nielsen Tracking No More

What are the standards of analyzing traffic on your website? Don’t ask the traffic giant Nielsen/NetRatings. They just announced plans to drop the longtime measurement of page views and instead focus on the amount of time a user stays on the website. The issue apparently has to deal with the growing inconsistency of measuring what […]

SMS at the Movies

I was at the movie theatre today and saw a preview for a quite hilarious movie called “Balls of Fury“. The premise of this movie isn’t the point of this entry, but rather the fact that at the end of the trailer, there’s a little notice at the end that motivates the viewer to get […]

Accessing Your Myspace Page From Your Phone

So perhaps this isn’t anything new, but if you noticed, AT&T has this new feature on their phones where you can view your Myspace page straight off of your phone. You could read and post blogs, edit profiles, add friends, etc. all from the comfort of a small screen on your cell phone. What’s interesting […]

Hello, iPhone? Can You Hear Me?

Looks like the Apple iPhone has suffered a little embarassment since its launch on June 29. While there was incredible hype for the latest iPod turned-digital entertainment portable console, one thing that the folks at AT&T and Apple probably didn’t think would be a great deal is the fact that people may want to be […]

YouTube Picks the Candidates

Perhaps one of the most unique ways to have a debate for the primary elections leading up to the 2008 presidential elections, CNN is putting on another series of debates among the democratic candidates and the republican candidates, respectively. However, rather than joining up with a local tv station or another political website, the July […]

CNN.com Redesigned

So CNN.com has gone and updated its site once again. What’s interesting is that the site includes more Web 2.0 features that many sites have done over the years. Even though Web 2.0 is somewhat old and been done by practically most major sites, these features always seem to be new to some folks. They […]

Los Angeles CVB Redesigns Website

It seems that in 2007, a lot of Visitors and Convention Bureaus in the United States are redesigning their sites and Los Angeles just seems to be the latest victim of this trend. One thing that concerns me about their website is where do you see your eye going? The site does look simple, but […]

YouTube’s Annoying Neighbor

Now I don’t mean “annoying” in the sense that I’m 100% loyal to YouTube, but rather the analogy it sort of presents – the neighbor that always has to outdo you in practically everything so that it looks like their “keeping up with the Jones'”. Nevertheless, in case you’ve been living under a rock or […]

YouTube for President

So Hilary’s under attack by some guy who put together a video clip and is supporting Barack Obama. It’s not surprising that this new wave of technology is growing ever-so popular with the tech generation that people are starting to share their own entrepeneurship spirit and go ahead and create their own PSAs for everyone […]
