These days a certain someone who doesnt have one arse to do in work is constantly nagging me to make blog posts so that they could leave comments...well yes!!!
I guess this is what having a bro-in-law is all about :) Happy Dale ???
EXAMPLE 1So watching the Vh1 Big '06 Awards last night and d biggest online fame award went to someone that most of you all wudnt recognise unless your a blogger or you tube user. The winner was
youtube's lonelygirl15. Her video blog caught more than 2 million views....
.....so Im thinking, WOW...look at how everything in the online world is creeping up into the reall world, video bloggers are getting Vh1 awards!!! And whereas before, only geeks would know who lonelygirl15 was, now everybody knows, whether you are into the whole Internet thing or not !!!
EXAMPLE 2Another example is the shifting role of web inclusion in television advertisements. This is becoming a rapid necessity of product and company advertising, to include the website now at the end of an advert on tv saying
"For more information log on to Company XYZ's website at www.xyz.com". The Pontiac car advertisement on tv goes as far as to show the
Google homepage with the word
"pontiac" typed in the search field and say for more information on Pontiac cars just google 'pontiac'! WOW!
EXAMPLE 3Of interesting note, you can advertise your online company by advertising your url address in a television advertisement. An online company advertised themselves with a tv ad that tell you that you can now customize your postage stamps online with your own picture.
(*very very innovative by the way )
For those of you interested, its
www.phototstamps.comIts amazing how the roles of advertising on the web and television are changing, shifting and becoming more and more intertwined...complimentary even as media mediums and shifting as far as one medium is actually now facilitating the other...............so intriguing watching the paradigm shifts !!!!!!!!!!!
I foresee there will come a time when watching a tv advert will end with the url address will be a norm and an advert that doesnt give a url address will be deemed as retarded!!!!
What an honour it is for me to be amongst this generation of target audience to witness the inception of such an advertising role shift...to be witness to adverts before url inclusion and adverts after when url inclusion will be a norm :)
I would honestly prefer not to be born in any other era than today's generation - an era of technological redefinition!We are not Generation X, neither are we Generation Y..... we are Generation WWW. !(* read as generation www dot)
