Mobile Advertising's Gold Rush

November 16, 2009

Mobile Advertising Set To Soar | www.mediapost.com

Mobile advertising is definitely the new-new thing, but it sounds like the hype we heard when the Web was born as a graphical interface and banner ads started appearing in 1995. Be careful -- mobile advertising isn't going to produce overnight riches. For proof, look at your own mobile device. Where are they ads? And if you see any, tell me if they're prompting you to buy anything. Timing is everything, so before you jump in, read on.

Baidu - Tough times ahead? Probably NOT.

August 28, 2009

Baidu -- A Sleeping Giant Awakens | searchenginewatch.com

The article  emphasizes the issue's advertisers are having as they change from an old legacy system of Baidu  to a new interface that almost mirrors Google. Will this ultimately be a positive or a negative for the Chinese Search engine? How will it affect Google's position in China?  In my analysis, I explore some more details left out of the original article.

Google’s message to Yahoo: “You are not that important.” Does Yahoo understand?

November 10, 2008

Report: Google, Yahoo make concessions on ad deal | www.businessweek.com

The inevitable happened.  Regulators killed the Yahoo-Google agreement before it started        1) There is not enough distribution for interactive ads and Google did not see this as meaningful incremental traffic to waste the time and energy fighting the DOJ      2) Display advertising has sunk to a new low of ~0.35% click through therefore anything display driven has little marginal value      3) Jerry Yang has proven to be an ineffective leader in the short time he has been managing Yahoo, again

Goodbye, Weather Channel

May 1, 2008

NBC, CBS seen bidding for Weather Channel | www.msnbc.msn.com

Some of you may remember how you felt in the 1990s when Johnny Carson's last few shows were being aired.  I feel the same way with The Weather Channel. Competition for TWC has been pent up for years; having it owned by one of the four major TV networks is bound to unleash competition that it will be unable to compete with.

Bush Nominates Two Democrats to SEC: More of the Same is Likely

March 31, 2008

White House to Tap Two Dems to SEC | www.cfo.com

Will President Bush's recent nomination of two Democrats to the SEC make it more investor friendly?  Not likely!
