Bookmarks for June 8th through June 12th
These are my links for June 8th through June 12th:
- Cool uses of tech in recent advertising - creative use of technology. Video games, bands, major brands, and ad agencies themselves are all coming up with new ways to get attention online while typically leveraging the most popular social networks.
- The Complete Google Analytics Power User Guide - VKI Studios Blog - Complete Google analytic guide. I think.
- The New ShopSavvy: Faster, Bigger, Stronger - ShopSavvy is the useful app that allows you to use an Android phone’s camera to scan barcodes and get pricing information. More importantly, it allows you to compare prices of that item to prices on the web, where you’ll many times find a better deal. This new update which the team calls “Rodan” offers 1,000 new retailers and 750,000 new products, is better optimized for battery life and is much faster, I’m told.
The pricerunner mentality soon in everybody's hand - going offline-to-online-to-offline.

- Facebook Trumps MySpace, Twitter Among NBA, Nascar Fans - Advertising Age - Digital - … Turner Networks, which recently made Nascar and NBA viewing social by letting users sign in to the various online networks to chat about the basketball games and races. But MySpace users are the most vociferous and accounted for the largest percentage of chatter about live sporting events.
