Reconciling comScore’s and Google’s Paid Click Data Part 2: It’s the U.S. versus the World
Sun, 20 Apr 2008 21:51:47 PDT
Background We have received numerous inquiries about the paid click data released by Google on 4/17/08. Some inquiries focused on reconciliation: How could comScore and Google figures be seemingly so different? Others, recognizing that comScore’s data reflected domestic paid clicks only, questioned why we release data that only partially represent Google’s global business. Others asked about our plans for offering our own analysis and training on the proper usage of our data. Our answers to th

Kingdom tops Marshall Posted on April 21st, 2008 OK so I’m starting to realize that I’m no longer a teenager. I’ve come to that conclusion after being wrong about my predictions for the number one movie two weeks in a row. Last week I was really certain that “Street Kings” would be the number one movie in the Country but it wasn’t, “Prom Night” was. And this week I thought for sure that the overly promoted “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” would easily top “The Forbidden Kingdom” but again I was

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 21:57:59 PDT
Around 7.45am this coming Thursday, I’ll be clearing out the ol’ tartan tonsils afore speaking at this year’s Communicator of the Year Breakfast (Thursday 24 April) at Melbourne’s rather august Windsor Hotel. Last year climate change expert Professor Tim Flannery scooped the award and also participated in a panel discussion entitled Politics, Principle and PR. This year’s theme is “Facing up to the Brave New WWWorld” looking at trends in social media, particularly as they relate to the public

Last week I was honored to do the opening keynote for the symposium on Mashups put on by the New Media Consortium. NMC, in collaboration with Educause, recently released the 2008 version of "The Horizon Report" which is "... a five-year qualitative research effort that seeks to identify and describe those emerging technologies that are likely to have a large impact on teaching, learning, or creative expression within learning-focused organizations."

RETURN of Fantasy Friday's (With a Sprinkle of Under the Radar)
Sun, 20 Apr 2008 22:06:08 PDT
"I mean, I know it's just joke after joke, but I like that. At least it doesn't get all preachy and up its own ass with messages, you know?" - Trucker (South Park, 2006) By now, I'm certain everyone has heard that Frank Thomas has been released by the Toronto Blue Jays. I will never understand how a team goes about simply releases a player? The Jays will owe Thomas 100% of his 2008 salary and I wonder if a slip up in Thomas' contract may allow for him to achieve his 300+ plate appearances with
A poll conundrum
Sun, 20 Apr 2008 22:33:12 PDT
By Libby I've never given much weight to polling in trying to predict long term trends. Polls by their nature take a snapshot of a moment in time and by the time they're published some new factor has likely as not already swayed public opinion in another direction. But still, the polling in PA has puzzled me because it seems so far removed from the reality on the ground. I mean consider this recent rally for Obama in Philly. By all accounts at least 35,000 people showed up and their enthusiasm
Adolescents, Alcohol a Dangerous Mix in Austria and across Europe
Sun, 20 Apr 2008 22:36:50 PDT
A 13-year-old schoolgirl in southern Austria celebrated the start of her spring break with a bottle of schnapps. She ended up in intensive care. In other countries across Europe, adolescents are making similar headlines for drinking themselves into a stupor, often passing out in the process. And they’re getting younger: A June 2006 European Union-commissioned report says nearly all 15-to 16-year-old European students have had alcohol at some point in their lives and, on average, now start wh
