Cardholders crave the ability to control which transactions are allowed to occur in their accounts, as well as which specific transactions, channels and thresholds are used to alert them of specific activity based on conditions they have set in advance. These capabilities may go beyond just preventing fraud losses, but also may have a big impact on which card consumers decide to use or what new account they will apply for in the future.

August 28, 2007

Oracle Buys Online Identity Theft and Fraud Detection Leader Bharosa | www.oracle.com

Consumers should have more control in how their identity information is used. In financial services and payments, the trick is to bridge the islands of identity directly from the core processing systems or payment account record out to notifications and controls that securely and conveniently reside in the hands of the authenticated customer.

Newspapers will benefit From Google Print Ads in the Long Run - BUYER BEWARE

June 6, 2007

Frienemy Google Not a Threat (Yet) to Traditional Ad Sales | www.pbs.org

Google Print Ads introduces yet another source for smaller marketers to play with the Big Boys, but Buyer beware. For the short term, this offering is beneficial to the Newspapers but needs some fine-tuning for small advertisers to benefit. It is essential for the Newspaper Industry to embrace the diversification of media by allowing for the sales base to expand. In the long run Newspapers will benefit from these type of expansions in that they will provide a new outlet other than utilizing Remnant Merchants to offer their available ad space at possible higher rates.  What is missing is that the Newspapers are still in control and the smaller advertisers wont experience the medium at its potential.  The same would be true for Media companies of TV and Radio.
