First and overall I really liked next11, it had a good atmosphere and creative feel, interesting audience and I sticky ideas to share. </p>
<p>Of course, the talks and encounters are the most important thing at such an event and it was really a shame I did not have time to talk and chat more with people. Station is a good location, the lectures where in different rooms that all left from a central hall that had the feel of a marketplace and also served as restaurant and party area. </p>
<p>Too bad also I did not take any pictures, the official Flickr does not have images that capture the atmosphere either. The photo is from <a href="http://t3n.de/">t3n</a>, who have many more <a href="http://t3n.de/news/next11-fotos-konferenz-digitalen-wirtschaft-310237/">pictures from next11</a>.<br />
<span id="more-1879"></span><br />
The panels where diverse, the <a href="http://nextconf.eu/next11/programme/programme-insights/">curators</a> did a great job in my opinion this year. To my mind stuck the AKQA showcase with Ian Crocombe who e.g. talked about the <a href="http://www.fiat.com/ecoDrive/">Fiat Eco Drive</a>, a car which comes with a software that analyzes the driving and suggests ways to consume less energy. Or Andrew Zolty by <a href="http://www.breakfastny.com/">BreakfastNY</a> with his twittering oven and the blimb who checks in to Foursquare automatically. </p>
<p>Vincent Schmidlin by Scholz &#038; Friends talked about archetypical heroes in human narrations and how brands can be seen in such a way (<a href="http://www.slideshare.net/Neuroversum/neuroversum-archetypisches-markenmanagement-launchpraesentation">Slideshare in German</a>). And of course I enjoyed to see my friends Bastian by <a href="http://www.jovoto.com">Jovoto</a> who showcased the <a href="http://www.thebetacup.com/">Betacup case</a> and David from Soundcloud who had many examples of user love like this one:<br />

The Art Directors club (ADC) awards good ideas and designs from the communications world, from tv ads to magazine design, there is a conference and of course many parties. My expectations were to meet interesting advertising people to talk about how to implement social media in their work and scout some young talents for P3000. </p>
<p>And I really did have some good conversations, everybody was really interested but somehow I had the feeling that there still are a lot of cultural differences between the advertising and the social media world. I&#8217;ll explain that in another post. What I actually did not expect so much was to be inspired, I don&#8217;t know why, but that actually happened to my joy and surprise. The exhibition was full of nice small and big design and advertising stuff: photos from magazines, print poster campaigns, even some good online stuff and I it was cool to stroll around and let the eye get caught by the vast variety. You can take a look at <a href="http://media.adc.de/gewinner/terminalviewer/">all the winners</a> here and watch some picture after the break. </p>

Fast könnte man etwas Sorge bekommen dass die Mannheimer etwas zu viel wollen, aber die Liebe zu ihrem Produkt und ihrer Idee macht das wieder wettLinda Dröge hat die Seite im Februar gelauncht und ist jetzt auf der Suche nach kreativen Dienstleistern und Künstlern um ihr Netzwerk zum Wachsen zu bringen.

Now, for the first time, Berlin will host the <a href="http://www.berlin-music-week.de/">Berlin music week</a> which is bunch of events like conference, fair, festival, lots of concerts and parties. </p>
<p>Of course, in its parts, it is nothing new. <a href="http://a-2-n.de/">Alltogethernow (#a2n)</a> as a conference saw it&#8217;s first issue last year. <a href="http://popkomm.de/">Popkomm</a> as a global trade fair for the music industry has a tradition of over 20 years and is slowly getting back some of the relevance it lost while the major music labels had to fight with revenue losses.

<p>From a branding aspect, it is good idea to put all this under one umbrella and attract people from all sorts of music business, whether it be major or indie labels, concerts, live events or distribution. It will be a week packed with talks and meetups and of course many concerts. I am personally looking forward to being present at <a href="http://a-2-n.de/date_sched/2010-09-07">a panel at a2n about the myriad of possibilities of self marketing for artists</a> and will be attending the Berlin festival, of course. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>An interactive trailer which pulls your friends information from Facebook and integrates it in the movie.<br />
<a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/wp-content/uploads/Bildschirmfoto-2010-07-27-um-17.17.35.png"><img src="http://www.stylewalker.net/wp-content/uploads/Bildschirmfoto-2010-07-27-um-17.17.35-e1280422002551.png" alt="" title="Lost in Val Sinestra interactive trailer facebook app" width="500" height="332" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1561" /></a><br />
Technically, it&#8217;s not a problem to put individual text and video into a flash movie. Alone, the right idea and the concept is a challenge that Lost in Val Sinestra solves in a very smart way. By connecting your Facebook account to the <a href="http://www1.lost-in-val-sinestra.com/">Val Sinestra Trailer Editor</a> a random selection from your friends list is made, you can chose a &#8220;Thrill factor&#8221; and your movie is being generated. Your own name will be used for the director&#8217;s title, your friend&#8217;s names and pictures will be integrated into the plot, on guest lists, on papers, fotographs or in the tv news. Alone, the sharing is not thought through really. In the end, I would expect a suggestion to share your own movie in your news stream and at the wall of all the people that take part in the movie. Technically, that would have been possible. </p>
<p><a href="http://www1.lost-in-val-sinestra.com/">Try it out at http://www1.lost-in-val-sinestra.com/</a></p>
<p>Update: Obviously, this is not a movie Trailer but a campaign for Swisscom, as <a href=http://techcrunch.com/2010/07/29/lost-in-val-sinestra-facebook/>Techcrunch reports.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>In this video, Tom Littlewood takes us on a journey to places where the Cold War past of Berlin is still visible. So they go to Teufelsberg, an artificial hill where the NSA built a listening station in the 60ies to spy on the communist part of Berlin, consisting of strange big white balls on top of the hill. They takl with a former army commander and visit the bunker at airport Tempelhof where thousands of meters of war film burnt right after world war II. Great piece of work, entertaining and educating, I like. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Hier stellen Wired Redakteure und Designer voller Enthusiasmus die Möglichkeiten vor, die Magazinmacher mit Geräten wie dem iPad bekommen werden. Die Texte werden mit Videos und Schnittstellen zu Social Networks angereichtert, Werbung wird zu Produktvorstellungen als 3D Modell. Man darf gespannt sein, wie andere Zeitungen und Zeitschriften damit umgehen werden, vor allem solche, die nach wie vor Redakteure mit einer ganz klaren Printdenke beschäftigen und die ist, auch und sogar bei jungen Journalisten nach wie vor äußerst ausgeprägt. Vor allem die Sprache der Wired-Macher zeigt ihre Einstellung zu ihrer Arbeit: &#8220;Storytelling, Communicating ideas and creations&#8221; ist der Kern der Arbeit laut Scott Dadich, Creative Director bei <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5473083/what-wired-will-look-like-on-the-ipad">Wired</a>. Ein Ansatz, den ich mir von viel mehr Journalismusmachern wünschen, trotz oder gerade wegen des andauernden Medienwandels, der ihre Branche so durcheinander schüttelt.  </p>

Vor allem die Sprache der Wired-Macher zeigt ihre Einstellung zu ihrer Arbeit: &#8220;Storytelling, Communicating ideas and creations&#8221; ist der Kern der Arbeit laut Scott Dadich, Creative Director bei <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5473083/what-wired-will-look-like-on-the-ipad">Wired</a>. Ein Ansatz, den ich mir von viel mehr Journalismusmachern wünschen, trotz oder gerade wegen des andauernden Medienwandels, der ihre Branche so durcheinander schüttelt.  </p>

<p>&#8220;Streit! Konstruktive Kontroverse&#8221; (Beef &#8211; constructive controversy) is Social Media Week Berlin&#8217;s motto 2010, in this post we explain why we think it is a good subject and how we see the state of digital Streit today. </p>
<p>Social Media has become a buzzword, so prominent, many people are already sick of it. Social Media needs to be in every marketing campaign, Social Media is finally the utopia &#8220;the internet&#8221; (in the 90ies) and &#8220;Web 2.0&#8243; (in the 00 years) both couldn&#8217;t fulfill, Social Media can be done by everyone and everyone must do it unlesss he or she will fall into endless oblivion. Plus Obama used it. Obama!</p>
<p>We don&#8217;t think that that is all wrong nor are we sick of using all these handy tools to connect and interact, nor are we sick talking about it. But we want to take another stand, another perspective. That&#8217;s why we came up with the subject &#8220;Streit!&#8221;. Streit means conflict, controversy, beef! And we like it! Here is why.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.trabayo.com">Trabayo</a> ist mein nicht mehr ganz so neues Internetbaby, das ich <a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/2009/06/05/trabayo/">hier</a> schon mal erwähnt habe. Es geht darum, zu sagen was man kann, das andere brauchen könnten: Cocktails mixen, Babys sitten, Websiten fixen, Rasen mähen usw. </p>
<p>Im ersten Schritt haben wir ein sehr einfaches System entwickelt, mit dem Beschreibungen und Headlines innerhalb von Kategorien erstellt werden können. Fehlt eine Kategorie, kann man den &#8220;Fehlt was&#8221;-Button benutzen. Interessiert man sich für einen der Services kann man mit dem Anbieter Kontakt aufnehmen. Die Trennung von Service und Person ermöglicht eine sehr einfache und dennoch granulare Privatsphäreneinstellung, sodass genau angegeben werden kann, wer man ist, wo die Dienstleistung angeboten wird und wer das sehen darf. </p>
<p><img src="http://blog.trabayo.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/kategorienbearbeitentrabayo.jpg" alt="Trabayo - Dienstleistungen, Services privat vermitteln" /></p>
<p>Wir sind noch am Anfang und können auch nicht so schnell entwickeln wie ein voll finanziertes Startup, denn zur Zeit bezahlen wir alles selbst und arbeiten neben unseren eigentlichen Jobs daran. Unsere Vision ist aber ein System aufzubauen, das es sehr leicht und angenehm macht, den eigenen Service darzustellen, konkrete Services für andere Vorzuschlagen oder Dienstleistungen zu beschreiben, die andere brauchen könnten und die es daher geben sollte. </p>
<p>Dazu gibt es regelmäßige Updates auf unserem <a href="http://blog.trabayo.com">Trabayo-Blog</a>, z.B. <a href="http://blog.trabayo.com/2009/08/31/wer-ist-trabayo/">wer außer mir noch hinter Trabayo steht</a>, wie wir damit irgendwann auch mal Geld verdienen wollen und dass wir <a href="http://blog.trabayo.com/2009/11/12/trabayo-party-berlin-lombardo-zionskirchplatz/">nächsten Samstag, am 21.11., eine Party im Dave Lombardo</a> feiern. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn ihr vorbeikommt, RSVP zur Trabayo Party geht hier. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Starting from tonight, &#8220;Beck&#8217;s Gold Urban Experiences&#8221; will be exploring urban ways of customizing reality today. It is sponsored by Beck&#8217;s Gold and supposed to reach out to artists and creative people for producing ideas and lots of beautiful content to put the spotlight on interesting approaches and enrich an entertaining discussion within this field. </p>
<p>The campaign will be lasting at least during 2010 and consists of several events and online documentation and interaction. First, there will be three so-called &#8220;workspaces&#8221; in Berlin, Hamburg and Munich, starting tonight in Berlin. Artists are invited to shape their vision of customizing reality and to present them to an audience which hopefully interacts with the created pieces. The artists, like e.g. <a href="http://www.kimkoester.com">Kim Köster</a>, <a href="http://www.klub7.de">Klub7</a>, <a href="http://www.tracknfield.de">Tracknfield</a> or <a href="http://www.balestraberlin.com">Balestra Berlin</a> create a room filled with pieces which exist, shine or interact with the people. All of the artists have a background of creating art in a modern, reflecting and urban way in a sense of technology and interaction. Tonight, there will be a breadbaking experiment, lifesound recordings and lots of visual approaches to shaping urban environments. Check out some impressions from the preparations:</p>
<p><object width="500" height="375"><param name="flashvars" value="offsite=true&#038;lang=de-de&#038;page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Fbecksgoldurbanexperiences%2Fsets%2F72157622507998161%2Fshow%2F&#038;page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Fbecksgoldurbanexperiences%2Fsets%2F72157622507998161%2F&#038;set_id=72157622507998161&#038;jump_to="></param><param name="movie" value="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649" allowFullScreen="true" flashvars="offsite=true&#038;lang=de-de&#038;page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Fbecksgoldurbanexperiences%2Fsets%2F72157622507998161%2Fshow%2F&#038;page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Fbecksgoldurbanexperiences%2Fsets%2F72157622507998161%2F&#038;set_id=72157622507998161&#038;jump_to=" width="500" height="375"></embed></object></p>
<p>My role in the campaign is and was to find ways for interaction, preparation and documentation online, including a community for artists, social media profiles like <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/becksgoldurbanexperiences/">Flickr</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/becksgolduex">YouTube</a> and the Urban Blog <a href="http://urban.becks.de/">urban.becks.de</a>. Together with <a href="http://www.silk-relations.com/">Silk relations</a>, <a href="http://www.coma.de/">Coma</a> and the Beck&#8217;s team we put together lots of ideas which will become reality in the next 14 months. Follow <a href="http://twitter.com/becksurban">@becksurban</a> on Twitter to get updates and get the Urban Blog RSS. The blog is curated by <a href="http://www.qlod.org/weltfrieden/">Nilzenburger</a> and will feature a ton of writers who will put together their vision of urban reality today. </p>
<p>MyLifestyleblog has a good <a href="http://www.mylifestyleblog.de/becks-gold-urban-experiences.html">overview in German about Beck&#8217;s Urban Experiences</a> too. </p>

<p>My role in the campaign is and was to find ways for interaction, preparation and documentation online, including a community for artists, social media profiles like <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/becksgoldurbanexperiences/">Flickr</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/becksgolduex">YouTube</a> and the Urban Blog <a href="http://urban.becks.de/">urban.becks.de</a>. Together with <a href="http://www.silk-relations.com/">Silk relations</a>, <a href="http://www.coma.de/">Coma</a> and the Beck&#8217;s team we put together lots of ideas which will become reality in the next 14 months. Follow <a href="http://twitter.com/becksurban">@becksurban</a> on Twitter to get updates and get the Urban Blog RSS. The blog is curated by <a href="http://www.qlod.org/weltfrieden/">Nilzenburger</a> and will feature a ton of writers who will put together their vision of urban reality today. </p>
<p>MyLifestyleblog has a good <a href="http://www.mylifestyleblog.de/becks-gold-urban-experiences.html">overview in German about Beck&#8217;s Urban Experiences</a> too. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Nobody really likes their telco provider. Everybody can tell a story of a contract which could not be cancelled, about intransparent tariffs, crazy roaming prices (send one mail, pay 5 EUR) and unsatisfying service hotlines. So telecommunication is not a sexy product and what is the telco&#8217;s approach to that problem? Change their products? No, it&#8217;s massive investment in marketing. Which is why e.g. Peter tells us <a href="http://www.thewavingcat.com/2009/03/24/why-the-telcos-are-doomed/">why telcos are doomed</a>. </p>
<p>Now, <a href="http://www.vodafone.de/">Vodafone Germany</a> puts <a href="http://off-the-record.de/2009/07/08/vodafone-setzt-robert-basic-und-sascha-lobo-in-den-werbe-bus/"><del datetime="2009-07-13T17:39:51+00:00">200 mio. </del>50-90 mio (!) EUR</a> in a big marketing <a href="http://www.esistdeinezeit.de">campaign</a>. And makes it even worse by especially targetting a group of people who feel the need to be online a lot, <a href="http://blog.vodafone.de/2009/07/08/wer-ist-die-generation-upload/">call them &#8220;generation upload&#8221;</a> and starting all sorts of social media channels (Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and so on). While the term itself might be questionable, the targetting itself is quite smart in my opinion: it is an interesting, important and targettable group. What is missing here in the branding strategy is the consumer insight!</p>
<p>These people who use telecommunication more than others know exactly about the lack of good contracts, good service and fair treatment by their telco provider. They are the ones who are able to tell all the stories I started this blogpost with. Targetting them with advertising without changing the behaviour is exactly the way of one-way marketing and placebo dialogue that should be over since the days of the Cluetrain manifesto.</p>
<p>Vodafone picked the advertising company Scholz &#038; Friends <a href="http://lumma.de/2009/07/10/generation-upload-und-der-dialog/">especially for their ideas on social media</a>. But Scholz is an advertising company. They are not business consultants. And social media won&#8217;t change that. They talk to marketing directors about ads, not about products. They might talk about products over coffee, but they will never change a company&#8217;s behaviour. Claiming to do so, claiming to listen, claiming to put the customer first and then not living up to the expectations is worse than not even rise all sorts of expectations at all.</p>
<p>Of course this is not my sole opinion. The German blogosphere is filled with <a href="http://www.horizont.net/aktuell/marketing/pages/protected/Vodafone-Neuer-Markenauftritt-loest-grosse-Debatte-aus_85493.html">harsh</a>, <a href="http://wirres.net/article/articleview/5257/1/6">taunting</a>, <a href="http://macomber.posterous.com/hah-spa-nutzerkommentare-aus-der-vodafone-pk/">zynical</a> and <a href="http://blog.handelsblatt.de/indiskretion/eintrag.php?id=2159">serious</a> critique. No one of the targeted &#8220;generation upload&#8221; is impressed by the campaign which was presented this week in a press conference streamed live to the web. Johannes writes in a very short and precise post <a href="http://jkleske.posterous.com/wie-die-vodafone-pressekonferenz-zur-neuen-ka">how a real change could have looked like</a>.</p>
<p>Unlike many commenters I am not talking about sell-out of the blogosphere because some bloggers and prominent twitter users are testimonials of the campaign. That&#8217;s not the core of the problem. On the contrary: I hope, they get paid a LOT for being in that campaign. <a href="http://saschalobo.com/">Sascha Lobo</a>, one of the main faces should receive around 100K EUR in my estimation, everything less would be dissapointing.  </p>
<p>Moreover, the clip itself is crap! It&#8217;s an ad which we have seen in around 100 variations for 100 products in the last 20 years: young, happy, enganged, curious, active people doing young, engaged, active stuff. Wohoo! And the David Bowie interpretation is hideous and hurts! Just to remind you that Vodafone can do better, here is the &#8220;Bohemian like you&#8221; spot again. </p>
<p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YnZD2A47LbE&#038;hl=de&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YnZD2A47LbE&#038;hl=de&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
<p><em>Update:</em>Nevertheless, it&#8217;s a very visible campaign and all the buzz that has been created is obviously free brand space. Plus: If you work in internet marketing and like to create social media tools for companies yourself, this is a brilliant example to point to. May it be for the use of social media channels in general or the overall message I hope I made clear in this post: Social media can be about listening and in the end changing behaviour. I am curious <a href="http://blog.vodafone.de/2009/07/09/reaktionen-auf-die-livepk/?cp=4#comment-177">how this works out for Vodafone</a>. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Mittwoch wurde ich eingeladen, um einem Werbedreh zu einem neuen Rasierprodukt beizuwohnen. Hier in Berlin, Til Schweiger solle kommen, außerdem ein Stuntman und viel Action, hinter die Kulissen schauen und so. Um nun nicht einfach naiv und gratis für ein Produkt zu werben, ergriff ich die Chance, Nina Knecht, Marketingverantwortliche von Procter &#038; Gamble zu Social Media zu befragen. Das ist zwar auch irgendwie Werbung, aber immerhin informativ. </p>
<p>Einige interessante Details über die Organisation und ihren Einsatz von Social Media und Online Tools erfuhr ich leider erst hinterher: So ist z.B. das beworbene Produkt eine Kooperation zwischen Gillette und Braun und u.a. durch die Innovationsoffensive von P&#038;G, die auch von einem inzwischen recht bekannten <a href="https://www.pgconnectdevelop.com/pg-connection-portal/ctx/noauth/PortalHome.do">Innovationsportal</a> begleitet wird, entstanden (man vergleiche die <a href="http://blogs.asaecenter.org/BostonBlog/2006/08/connect_and_develop.html">Story mit den bedruckbaren Chips</a>). Unterhaltsam waren auch Details aus der Rasier-Forschung: Jeder Mann denkt doch, alle rasierten sich gleich, aber weit gefehlt: Die Forschung registriert verschiedenste Druckstärken, Geschwindigkeiten, Frequenzen und sonstige Spektren von Verhaltensweisen.</p>
<p>Hier also das Interview, vielen Dank auch an Jens fürs Filmen!<br />

<p>Tatsächlich war es ein sehr netter Vormittag in der Sonne in einem schönen Innenhof in Kreuzberg, mit vielen Leuten (u.a. von <a href="http://www.pleon.com">Pleon</a> und <a href="http://www.zooom.at">Zooom</a>) die alle ihr bestes für den Spot gaben oder einfach nur zuschauten, so wie ich, <a href="http://www.amypink.com">Marcel von Amy Pink</a> und <a href="http://www.gossipgirlz.de">Sandra von Gossipgirlz</a>.

I felt like a boy in Disney Land, with too little time to try it all out; the snorkeling, the Kyte surfing, the trekking, all the great food, the North, more islands, meet more people, suck it all ever more.. Only three weeks to be inspired, to meet people, to become fascinated by the Thai energy of doing, family, public life, smiling, enjoying.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[<p>This weekend in Berlin will see art, music, politics and overall a mashup of all: Friday night will see <strong>Substance</strong>, the biggest Dubstep party on the European continent so far, at Berghain, there is the big art festival <strong>Videoakt</strong> on friday and saturday where Stylewalker&#8217;s going to spin, and on sunday people living in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg have the chance to cast their votes for or against the urban development project <strong>Mediaspree</strong>.<br />
<span id="more-673"></span><br />
<strong>Substance</strong></p>
<p><a href='http://www.stylewalker.net/wp-content/uploads/substance_flyer2.jpg' reL="lightbox"><img src="http://www.stylewalker.net/wp-content/uploads/substance_flyer2-212x300.jpg" alt="substance_flyer2" title="substance_flyer2" width="212" height="300" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-674" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://berghain.de/">Berghain</a>, Berlin&#8217;s most famous techno temple and house of the Panorama Bar, will open it&#8217;s gates on a friday night for the first time (usually it&#8217;s only Panorama Bar on fridays) to host probably the biggest Dubstep party on the European continent so far: Shackleton, Scuba, Appleblim, Skull disco, Mala, DJ Distance &#8211; <a href="http://www.grimetime.de/index.php?id=327">find more about the artists, links and music at Grimetime</a>. </p>
<p>Moreover, you have the chance to enjoy Berhain&#8217;s new sound system: <a href="http://www.funktion-one.com/home.htm">Funktion One</a>. Paulie at Dubstepforum <a href="http://www.dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=46472">says</a> about it: &#8220;It&#8217;s got the best sound I&#8217;ve ever heard in a big club. Funktion 1 rigs all the way round&#8230; &#8221;</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a great mix by Applebim in the series of Resident Advisor&#8217;s podcasts: <a href="http://www.residentadvisor.net/podcast-episode.aspx?id=110">&#8220;Housestep? Dubhouse? Whatever you want to call it, Appleblim&#8217;s got it on this edition of the RA podcast&#8221;</a></p>
<p><strong>Videoakt</strong><br />

<p>Me, Stylewalker, have the big honour to create a musical scape for the video art, together with Steve (remember the <a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/2005/09/08/houseparty/">House party</a>, almost three years ago?) and VJ <a href="http://www.myspace.com/hitektrash">Hitektrash</a> from 11pm, at Glogauer 16.</p>
<p><strong>Mediaspree</strong></p>
<p>This is what it might look like along the river in Berlin, where you find now so many great places like Yaam, Bar 25 or Kiki Blofeld, if the plans of Mediaspree become reality: </p>

<p>Pretty boring, huh? Xbergers and Fhainers, go vote, to prevent this! I&#8217;ve written about Mediaspree versenken before, and you can read the whole text about what Berlin really needs, why it is unique and why we love living here so much at Sounds of Sirens: <a href="http://www.soundofsirens.net/index.php/2008/07/10/auf-zu-neuen-ufern-die-spree-gehrt-uns">Auf zu neuen Ufern</a>.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Totgesagte leben länger, und was kratzt es überhaupt die Eiche. Nur weil ein paar Internetheinis nur noch sporadisch zappen, aber natürlich trotzdem die EM-Spiele schauen und natürlich trotzdem wissen, was GNTM bedeutet, ist das TV noch lange nicht tot. Wir reden hier über eine Industrie, die Milliarden umsetzt, die wird sich nicht einfach wegmarginalisieren lassen. Fragen wir lieber, was aus dem Fernsehen wird. Oder fragen wir noch lieber, was das Wort “Fernsehen” in ein paar Jahren bedeuten wird.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Die <a href="http://www.next-conference.com/next08">Next08</a> liegt nun etwas mehr als eine Woche zurück und über die Konferenz ist viel <a href="http://next08.sixgroups.com/live/2/">geschrieben und gemeint worden</a>: &#8220;Gute Organisation&#8221;, &#8220;zu viel Business, zu wenig Vision&#8221;, &#8220;gutes Essen&#8221;, &#8220;schwaches Wlan&#8221;, &#8220;zu laut&#8221;, &#8220;beeindruckende Ansammlung von Brancheninsidern&#8221;, &#8220;Schlipsträger, die keinen Schlips tragen&#8221;, etc. </p>
<p>Einge Fragen bleiben aber immer offen und die Macher stricken, nach einer wohlverdienten Pause, sicher schon an Konzepten für das kommende Jahr. Eine Frage jedoch, die meines Wissens verblüffenderweise selten öffentlich gestellt wurde, ist die nach einem Live-Stream aus den Panels oder von der Konferenz allgemein. Denn eine Veranstaltung, die sich &#8220;Get Realtime&#8221; auf die Fahnen schreibt, muss sich diese Frage sicherlich gefallen lassen. <span id="more-638"></span></p>
<p>Martin Recke, Hauptverantwortlicher in der Organisation der Konferenz hat sich die Frage gefallen lassen und ein Interview gegeben, das ich hier im Original wieder geben möchte. Vielen Dank dafür!</p>
<p><strong>Frage:</strong>Warum gab es auf einer Konferenz, die das Motto &#8220;get realtime&#8221; hat, und die sich auch explizit mit Live Video beschäftigte, keinen Live Video Stream?</p>
<p><strong>Martin Recke:</strong> Unser Fokus lag auf der Videoaufzeichnung. Denn nach unseren Erfahrungen werden viele Videos in den Wochen und Monaten nach der next conference von etlichen tausend Menschen angesehen. Ein Livestream würde nur einen Bruchteil davon erreichen.</p>
<p><strong>Nachfrage</strong>: Dass es Livevideo gibt, schließt ja die nachträgliche Bereitstellung als Videoaufzeichnung nicht aus. Im besten Fall streamt man live und hat das ganze als abrufbares Video im Netz sobald man auf Stop drückt, oder?</p>
<p><strong>M.R. </strong>Soweit die Theorie. In der Praxis setzt das eine Menge voraus, der Aufwand ist nicht gerade klein und die möglichen Fehlerquellen zahlreich&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Frage:</strong>Wertet ein Live-Videostream eine Konferenz vielleicht für Präsenzbesucher ab, die dann keinen Eintritt mehr zahlen, sondern sich statt dessen per Netz informieren?</p>
<p><strong>M.R. </strong>Das kann sein, spielt aber für uns höchstens eine untergeordnete Rolle. Die Teilnehmer kommen neben dem Programm auch für das Liveerlebnis, die entspannte Atmosphäre und das Networking.</p>
<p><strong>Frage:</strong>Gab es Bedenken hinsichtlich der technischen Machbarkeit, an der man sich &#8220;nicht die Finger verbrennen&#8221; wollte? Oder waren die verfügbaren Lösungen vielleicht schlicht zu teuer?</p>
<p><strong>M.R. </strong>Es war eine Grundsatzentscheidung, die Machbarkeit war nicht das Thema.</p>
<p><strong>Frage:</strong>Unter welchen Vorraussetzungen ist eine Next09 vorstellbar, die Live-Video-Übertragungen anbietet?</p>
<p><strong>M.R. </strong>Wir müssten davon überzeugt sein, dass wir Liveübertragungen brauchen.</p>
<p><strong>Frage:</strong>Eine Einschätzung, bitte. Gibt es technische Grenzen für Live-Video im Netz? Wird Live-Video bald die Leistungsfähigkeit der heutigen Datenübertragung überfordern und so vielleicht zum Killer für die Netzneutralität?</p>
<p><strong>M.R. </strong>Sicher gibt es technische Grenzen. Sie werden aber von der technischen Entwicklung dauernd erweitert. Die Netzneutralität sehe ich eher durch wirtschaftliche und politische Interessen gefährdet als durch Livevideo.</p>
<p>Nachtrag: In Martin Reckes eigener <a href="http://www.next-conference.com/next08/conference/next08-in-review-next09-in-preview.html">Zusammenfassung der Konferenz</a>, taucht unter der Rubrik &#8220;What we could have done better&#8221; schließlich auch der Livestream auf. </p>

<p><a href="http://www.volkswagensnake.nl/">Volkswagen NL has relaunched Snake</a> as a flash game. You move the car with the arrows, for every balloon collected you get a fan more and the snake grows. There&#8217;s also happing with the price and you have some apparently funny comments. Sometimes a band appears or some bboys turn up to dance. Very nicely done indeed.</p>

[Disclaimer: I work for P3000 now and we are not really certain about the name, the original developer David from France obviously likes "(blog me) SITE" more, but I am not so sure if that's a good idea.

Anyway, the thing, whatever you want to call it, is a blast. You can put in whatever you want and you can put it wherever you want. It&#8217;s a microsite widget which consists of a bunch of flash content with audio, video, news (via RSS even), dates and newsletter box. The cool thing is the blogme-Code: Copy the code to your blog or whatever social network profile, there&#8217;s even a Facebook application for it. And it get&#8217;s even easier: MySpace users e.g. just type in their login data and can post it to any section of their profile with a simple click. BlogMeSites are going to be huge, I am sure, because thery are the überwidgets.

The war bombed them away, or the communists or Adenauer did, who knows. Fact is, it&#8217;s not going to change fast (of course in expensive neighborhoods, new houses are built) but in other sites, people will have to live with their ugly and overall badly isolated brandmauer (I believe in english it&#8217;s fire division wall). </p>
<p>So here&#8217;s the idea: Why not paint them with special materials or even grow plants on them to make everything cosier and prettier and less expensive? Brandmauer.de are a bunch of architects and artists that want to make Berlin a little less grey (and of course, run a fun business).

<p>The &#8220;before &#8211; after&#8221; effect is not only curious and interesting for plastic surgery but also for corporate design. Questions and answers about what has changed, why and how, give not only experts a good background but also provide the enthusiastic design amateur with useful insights about the use of colors and forms and what effect they might have on the public image of an organization. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/">Brandnew</a> is a new and well done blog about just this subject by <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/">UnderConsideration</a>, a network of web savvy designers, <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/uc/founders/">founded by</a> the Mexicans Bryony Gomez-Palacio and Armin Vit who reside in Brooklyn, NYC now and with many <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/uc/contributors/">contributors</a> from the US and Canada. </p>

<p><a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/">Brandnew</a> is a new and well done blog about just this subject by <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/">UnderConsideration</a>, a network of web savvy designers, <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/uc/founders/">founded by</a> the Mexicans Bryony Gomez-Palacio and Armin Vit who reside in Brooklyn, NYC now and with many <a href="http://www.underconsideration.com/uc/contributors/">contributors</a> from the US and Canada. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Es ging sogar als <a href="http://www.a-b-face2net.de/de/presse/meldungen/2007_3/pm_digital_conversation.html">Pressemeldung</a> und <a href="http://www.face2blog.de/2007/08/03/venceremos/">Blogeintrag</a> raus und ich bin stolz, auch darauf hinzuweisen: Ab sofort bin ich bei A&#038;B FACE2NET mitverantwortlich für den Bereich <a href="http://www.a-b-face2net.de/de/kompetenzen/conversations/index.html">Digital Conversations</a>. </p>
<p>Ich hoffe darauf hinarbeiten zu können, dass dies keine leere Phrase bleibt (<em>Update</em>: Ein Rückblick auf Projekte wie die <a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/2005/09/07/campaigns-and-wbloggar/">Roten Blogs</a> oder die <a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/2007/05/24/mash-dein-parteiprogramm/">Programmwerkstatt</a> für die SPD, dem <a href="http://www.mutterblog.de/">Mutterblog</a> oder auf die Dinge, die da kommen für das BMAS kann diese Sorge durchaus entkräften), sondern wir tatsächlich als Kommunikationsagentur helfen können, Gespräche im Internet sichtbar und verständlich zu machen und zusammen mit den Kunden Strukturen zu entwickeln, um angemessen darauf zu reagieren und die Crowd-Intelligence da draußen zu nutzen. Die Erfahrung, die wir hier vor allem mit Projekten aus der <a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/category/politics/">politischen Sphäre</a> gewonnen haben, sollte dabei durchaus hilfreich sein.<br />
<span id="more-512"></span><br />
Immer wieder werden wir uns (als enthusiastischer Kommunikationsinnovator) und die Anderen sich (als geerdete und jahrelang-so-machende Kunden) aber dabei klar werden müssen, dass Dialog, Zuhören, Gespräch, Diskurs, Austausch und Gegenseitigkeit nicht einfach nur notwendiges Beiwerk einer PR-Kampagne sind, und auch keine Webprojekte á la &#8220;Blogs&#8221;, &#8220;Communities&#8221; oder &#8220;Videodebatten&#8221; oder was auch immer, sondern tatsächlich eine innere Einstellung einer Organisation und der damit einhergehenden Identität, der Kultur, der Strukturen und des Verhaltens. </p>
<p>(Abgesehen davon kann so eine digitale Unterhaltung aber auch einfach nur ein großer Spaß sein, so wie <a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/2007/02/28/diesel-got-hijacked-and-gets-blackmailed-by-two-models/">das hier</a> oder <a href="http://www.stylewalker.net/2007/02/10/berlinale-schlammer-vanity-fair/">das</a>). </p>
<p>Das soll es an Meta-Überlegungen an dieser Stelle aber erst einmal gewesen sein. Erinnert mich schwer an meine Magisterarbeit &#8211; die ich im Übrigen, das wurde ich schon das eine oder andere Mal gefragt, hier gerne veröffentliche, sobald sie durch die offiziellen Stelle am Fachbereich gelaufen und bewertet wurde. </p>

Stimme? Genau, und gleich wurde noch die Nachricht untergebracht, dass Breakster auch kostenloses VoIP zwischen Gruppenmitgliedern ermöglicht. </p>
<p>Schließlich wird noch auf die Betreiberfirma <a href="http://www.smeet.de">Smeet</a> verlinkt. Dumm nur, dass dafür die Domain <a href="http://www.smeets.de">smeets.de</a> verwendet wurde &#8211; ein Unternehmen, das Luftreinigungstechnologie herstellt.

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Neulich hatte ich die Ehre und das Vergnügen, als Blogger vor jungen Autoren, die sich vor allem mit Politik beschäftigen, aus dem Nähkästchen zu plaudern. Es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht und ich hoffe, einige zum Bloggen angefixt zu haben und habe mich besonders gefreut, auch einigen bereits Bloggenden noch den einen oder anderen Trick gezeigt zu haben (darunter waren Alina und Sebastian von <a href="http://www.politik-digital.de/metablocker/">Metablocker</a>, <a href="http://pachulke.blogspot.com/">Herr Pachulke</a> und <a href="http://maikhenschke.wordpress.com/">Maik</a>)<br />
<span id="more-480"></span><br />
Interessant ist immer, wenn ich den Google-Reader zeige und dann den Effekt der Shared-Items. Den wenigsten ist tatsächlich klar, was die Trennung von Inhalt und Form bedeutet, dass Infoeinheiten, oder &#8220;Meme&#8221; tatsächlich in den verschiedensten Formaten auftauchen können und eben nicht an eine Seite, ein Plakat, ein Buch oder ein Radio gebunden sind. </p>
<p>Auch die Frage nach dem Geldverdienen mit Blogs tauchte auf &#8211; eigentlich könnte Herr Pachulke da ja selber viel zu sagen, schließlich ist ja die Hälfte seiner Seite Werbung <img src='http://www.stylewalker.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> . Darüber habe ich gar nicht gesprochen, weil ich (noch) nicht genug darüber weiß. Aber zwei Links fallen mir dazu ein. <a href="http://www.basicthinking.de/blog/2007/06/26/blog-umfrage-auswertung-der-monatlichen-einnahmen/">Robert Basics infernale Blogumfrage darüber welche Blogs warum und wieviel Geld pro Monat verdienen</a> (wo er uns sogar die Rohdaten zum Verwursten zur Verfügung stellt) und der nie verlegene <a href="http://www.johnchow.com">John Chow</a>, der genau weiß, was Suchmaschinen wollen und welche Klicks wo was einbringen. Also, wen&#8217;s interessiert, langweilig ist es nicht und ich sollte es einfach mal ausprobieren. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><a class="img-left" href="http://www.trupoli.com"><img src="http://www.stylewalker.net/wp-content/trupoli.png" width="166" height="62" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.trupoli.com">Trupoli</a> kommt von &#8220;true politics&#8221; und startet demnächst als Politik-Community. Sowas finde ich im Prinzip spannend, vielleicht machen sie ja etwas anders, als alle anderen, die es bisher gibt. Dennoch bleiben viele Fragen offen, die ich hier an die Macherin und Macher zur Beantwortung stelle:<br />
<span id="more-462"></span><br />
1. Leider weiß man nach der Lektüre der Seiten immer noch nicht genau wie Trupoli genau funktionieren soll. Verstehe ich es richtig, dass es sich vor allem um eine Community handelt, in der die User allen Content einstellen: Politikeraussagen, Bewertungen, usw? Wenn ja, welchen Mehrwert haben sie davon?</p>
<p>2. Was unterscheidet Trupoli von Seiten wie <a href="http://www.sie-schreiben-dir.de">www.sie-schreiben-dir.de</a>, <a href="http://www.abgeordnetenwatch.de">www.abgeordnetenwatch.de</a> oder sogar <a href="www.direktzurkanzlerin.de">www.direktzurkanzlerin.de</a>?</p>
<p>3. Wenn Trupoli Investoren hat, werden die auch irgendwann Rendite sehen wollen, also was ist euer Geschäftsmodell? Seht ihr gerade als politische Community nicht die Gefahr einer wirtschaftflichen Abhängigkeit? Stellt euch mal vor, eure User kommen auf den arg anti-kapitalistischen Film? Wer will denn da noch Werbung schalten?<br />
Auf der anderen Seite werden sich nicht gerade diese politisch engagierten User von der Seite abwenden, wenn sie sich kommerzialisiert?<br />
Da habt ihr doch sicher drüber nachgedacht, wie wollt ihr diese Dilemmata lösen?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="img-left" href="http://www.trupoli.com"><img src="http://www.stylewalker.net/wp-content/trupoli.png" width="166" height="62" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.trupoli.com">Trupoli</a> kommt von &#8220;true politics&#8221; und startet demnächst als Politik-Community. Sowas finde ich im Prinzip spannend, vielleicht machen sie ja etwas anders, als alle anderen, die es bisher gibt. Dennoch bleiben viele Fragen offen, die ich hier an die Macherin und Macher zur Beantwortung stelle:<br />
<span id="more-462"></span><br />
1. Leider weiß man nach der Lektüre der Seiten immer noch nicht genau wie Trupoli genau funktionieren soll. Verstehe ich es richtig, dass es sich vor allem um eine Community handelt, in der die User allen Content einstellen: Politikeraussagen, Bewertungen, usw? Wenn ja, welchen Mehrwert haben sie davon?</p>
<p>2. Was unterscheidet Trupoli von Seiten wie <a href="http://www.sie-schreiben-dir.de">www.sie-schreiben-dir.de</a>, <a href="http://www.abgeordnetenwatch.de">www.abgeordnetenwatch.de</a> oder sogar <a href="www.direktzurkanzlerin.de">www.direktzurkanzlerin.de</a>?</p>
<p>3. Wenn Trupoli Investoren hat, werden die auch irgendwann Rendite sehen wollen, also was ist euer Geschäftsmodell? Seht ihr gerade als politische Community nicht die Gefahr einer wirtschaftflichen Abhängigkeit? Stellt euch mal vor, eure User kommen auf den arg anti-kapitalistischen Film? Wer will denn da noch Werbung schalten?<br />
Auf der anderen Seite werden sich nicht gerade diese politisch engagierten User von der Seite abwenden, wenn sie sich kommerzialisiert?<br />
Da habt ihr doch sicher drüber nachgedacht, wie wollt ihr diese Dilemmata lösen?</p>
<p>4. Warum hat euer <a href="http://blog.trupoli.com/">Blog</a> keine Trackbackfunktion? Und warum erscheinen die Kommentare nicht? Wenn ihr sie moderiert, müsst ihr das den Usern sagen.</p>
<p>5. Warum seid ihr überzeugt, dass das von euch <a href="http://blog.trupoli.com/?p=16">hier vorgestellte Team</a> den Ansprüchen tatsächlich gewachsen ist? Welche Erfahrung habt ihr mit Internet und Politik und der entsprechenden Vermarktung? (<a href="www.socialweb-guide.de">www.socialweb-guide.de</a> und <a href="www.socialweb-news.de">www.socialweb-news.de/</a> von der Produktmanagerin Anian Leisner machen auf jeden Fall einen soliden Eindruck. Aber wo bleibt die Politik? Aber vielleicht braucht man ja als mündiger Bürger auch keine Erfahrung in dem Bereich?)</p>
<p>6. <a href="http://blog.trupoli.com/?p=13">Hier</a> wird beschrieben, dass das Buch &#8220;Die Netokraten&#8221; Auslöser für die Ideenfindung einer Politikcommunity war. Inwiefern?

It started in 2004 as an experiment by the Parisien Patrice Cassard who set up a system to upload designs, present them as shirts and let users vote the best styles. He then started to produce and sell the most popular shirts, in a limited number, paying royalties to the original designer. Now, the site has grown ever more popular into a European shirt design community (and has recently been acquired by Spreadshirt).</p>
<p>Lafraise offers an affiliate program for people who promote the shirts. Since I do not only like most of the designs but also the whole community approach of the idea, I decided to put a flashcode into my site (in the sidebar to the right) which shows the recent designs. If you decide to buy a shirt after clicking the banner, I will get 10% of the purchased sum which I can spend on shirts. </p>

What do you think? Are you being annoyed by the animated banner? Do you think it is a smart idea? Or is lafraise ripping me off with poor gratification?<!--9131e8b45e84678573010f15177f0ac2--></p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>When telling marketing people about my blog and how many visitors come by here daily (around 200 which is a nice number but still loooooooong tail, no?) they tend to ask me: &#8220;Why don&#8217;t you put ads on your site?&#8221;. Hm. Dunno. Too much stress to administrate? Not worth the effort? Besides: I know, would I put ads here, I&#8217;d put much more work in getting more people on the site which could change: What I write about and how I do it. On the other hand, I am vain enough wanting many people to come here anyway, independent from ads..<br />
<span id="more-427"></span><br />
[PLACE YOUR AD HERE (in case it's as pretty as the site)]</p>
<p>Actually, Stylewalker.net would be a mag where, I guess, advertising wouldn&#8217;t surprise visitors. It&#8217;s music, it&#8217;s style, it&#8217;s interesting web stuff, it&#8217;s Berlin &#8211; it&#8217;s not the ohsoindependent opinion driven private newsroom or diary. I am the last to say advertising is bad, but in the context of a site who has a strong message to tell about how the world should be, ads just don&#8217;t seem to be appropriate.</p>
<p>Here, they would under one condition. They had to be stylish. Banners must look nice, I would not like stupid text links or blinky animated gifs. I want cool ideas, good photos, interesting products. As long as these premises are not complied, I am afraid, I can&#8217;t put ads here. </p>
<p>But if you are somebody who is looking for exactly that match (Me: A cool site about cool stuff, You: selling stylish ads for interesting products), please write and give me your clients&#8217; money! </p>

The &#8220;3D virtual realities design company&#8221; <a href="http://www.avaloop.com">Avaloop</a> is creating a virtual Vienna, comicstyle; funny enough, <a href="http://www.papermint.at">Papermint</a> will be 2D and has a very special look and feel.<br />
<span id="more-409"></span><br />
Avatars look like little superheroes, very cute and indvidual. Right now, they are betatesting Papermint, I am curious how it will look like in the end. Unlike SL they want to concentrate on the communicative aspects of such worlds and not render reality. It is meant to be simple and easy to start. It did cost about 300 000€ devoloping, which shall be refinanced by user fees, in-game items and in-game advertising.  </p>

Ein paar Textads werden in die Seiten eingebaut, für 5€ pro Monat kann man auf eine werbefreie Pro-version upgraden, die dazu noch weitere Features, wie z.B. mehr Speicher, beinhaltet.</p>
<p>Als ich letztes Wochenende auf einer Mitarbeiterkonferenz vorschlug, die Ergebnisse doch als Website zu veröffentlichen, waren die Reaktionen zunächst zweifelnd bis ablehnend (&#8220;viel zu aufwendig&#8221;) und das Erstaunen groß, als am Ende ein richtiges Onlinemagazin &#8220;echt im Netz&#8221; stand. Die Macher kommen aus Hamburg und treten sehr sympathisch auf, ich wünsche ihnen alles Gute!</p>

<p>This one&#8217;s not bad either, here&#8217;s the story: Two girls who want to be supermodels <a href="http://www.diesel.com/lockin/splash.php">hijacked the diesel page</a>, kidnapped a Diesel sales guy, stole the underwear collection and are now blackmailing Diesel to make them the two protagonist models of their next campaign. They also want to be Diesel renamed to &#8220;Heidies&#8221;..<br />

<p>Now, they communicate with their fans via the site, e.g. let them vote what should happen with the kidnapped guy. Despite the fact that he gets his legs waxed, his situation is not too uncomfortable really.. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m pretty sure that the T-Mobile brand managers celebrated their scoop to place T-Com&#8217;s corporate sound into the stylish fashion movie &#8220;<a href="http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/thedevilwearsprada/">The devil wears Prada</a>&#8220;. Everytime protagonist Andrea&#8217;s phone rings you can hear their insistent &#8220;tüdelüdelü&#8221;. Hands down, good job!<br />
But: The phone slowly becomes the symbol of Andrea always being at her boss&#8217; command, under pressure, a servant in this overwound fashion world. The sound makes her boyfriend sigh, her father frown, it&#8217;s pure stress, it&#8217;s irritating, waking you up in the morning, preventing you from sleep at night.. I don&#8217;t know if that message is the one the said brand managers thought about. Maybe the scoop actually was pretty stupid. </p>

The recent strategies of Rupert Murdoch aim to turn the impressive success of MySpace, which is already the second-most visited site on the web (after Yahoo), into an even bigger revenue machine.</p>
<p>He put one of his most skilled multimedia managers to the task: Ross Levinson, boss of Murdoch&#8217;s News corporation&#8217;s overarching online unit: <a href="http://www.newscorp.com/news/news_250.html" target="_blank">Fox Interactive Media</a>.<br />
<span id="more-206"></span><br />
Linked to the FOX TV sales department, he wants to build the way for brands to MySpace. And this is how the friend comes into play: To create friend profiles of products and companies is clearly the goal for this massive cooperation. </p>
<p>I read a very interesting NY-Times article on that subject: <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/23/business/yourmoney/23myspace.html?pagewanted=1&#038;ei=5088&#038;en=68144371c2be06ac&#038;ex=1303444800&#038;partner=rssnyt&#038;emc=rss" target="_blank">Making friends was easy. Big profit is tougher.</a><br />
[via <a href="http://www.de-bug.de/blog/archives/965.html" target="_blank">De:Bug</a>]</p>
<p>Is that going to work straight away? </p>
<p>If we look at labels and musicians and how they use MySpace as the ultimate, most effective music promotion tool, it is thinkable to transfer that mechanism to other products. <strong>These products must have a personality though that is attractive enough to make friends with people</strong>. </p>
<p>It would be an interesting job for a communication agency as well to turn the brand indentity into a net personality, promotable on MySpace. </p>
<p>For MySpace, it is a thin line between making profit and selling out their users. The success is not natural and users could turn away from the platform to other services like <a href="http://tagworld.com/" target="_blank">TagWorld</a>, although creating a friends network takes a lot of work and time. </p>
<p>The friends keep the users on MySpace, too many brands could scare them away..</p>

<p>Nike already started a massive internet campaign with &#8220;Joga bonito&#8221; (Portuguese for &#8220;Play nice&#8221;). You&#8217;ll find many cool <a href="http://www.nikefootball.com" target="_blank">movies</a> and a community: <a href="http://www.joga.com" target="_new">www.joga.com</a> (the page with the fastest growing rate of attention lately, as per <a href="http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?q=&#038;url=http://www.joga.com" target="_new">Alexa.com</a>)</p>
<p>Talk about viral effects: The videos are little masterpieces about how to play beautiful football and the website makes it easy to share. Of course yu can send an email with link, but there&#8217;s also a code snippet, people can put into their websites. Here&#8217;s an example:<span id="more-189"></span></p>
<p><embed src="http://nikefootball.nike.com/nikefootball/jogatvcontent/nike_brazilian_ping_pong/nike_brazilian_ping_pong_de_blog.mov" name="movie1" autoplay="false" enablejavascript="true" width="416" height="312" controller="true" autostart="false" loop="false" volume="50%" bgcolor="000000"></embed></p>

<p>The spot is taken in Camp Nou, Barcelona and the perimeter advertisers have their little benefit as well.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><a class="img-left"><img src="http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/0316346624.01._BO01,224,223,220_PIsitb-dp-arrow,TopRight,22,-21_SH30_SCMZZZZZZZ_.jpg" alt="Tipping point" /></a>This is about an amazing book I read recently. I am annoying my friends talking so much about it and I use its stories at work. </p>
<p>It is called &#8220;The tipping point&#8221; by Malcom Gladwell. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s not an insider&#8217;s tip, especially not in the U.S. and already has had quite an aftermath. Libraries, e.g. were rewarded for new ideas that had spread from the book.<br />
<span id="more-186"></span>The tipping point is the moment in which an epidemic starts, a situation in which <strong>small effects can have deep impacts</strong>. </p>
<p>This is an almost mathematical, biological approach but suits for many <strong>social phenomenas</strong> as well: Crime rates drop abruptly, a fashion trend takes off and it shows why 150 is a magic number for groups and organizations. </p>
<p>You can browse through the <a href="http://www.amazon.de/gp/reader/0316346624/ref=sib_dp_pt/302-7910643-2955200#reader-link" target="_blank">table of content</a>.</p>
<p>Not only is the idea so clear and convincing, it is also written in such an entertaining way, it obeys what it explains: <strong>It sticks</strong>. </p>
<p>Gladwell has many examples that stayed in my head: The story of Lexus&#8217; &#8220;perfect recall&#8221;, the surprising comeback of the now again fashionable Hushpuppies shoe, how crime changed in New York, the success factors of &#8220;Sesame&#8217;s street&#8221; and &#8220;Blues&#8217;s clues&#8221;, and my favourite one: How a social worker in San Diego had the brilliant idea to educate women about breast cancer and diabetes. Turning their hair dressers into evangelists and give them stories to tell to their clients made them really think about prevention. </p>
<p>The book is about people, how they connect, whom they trust, about <strong>conncetors, mavens and salesmen</strong>, about the power of context and what makes messages sticky.</p>
<p>A pleasure to read. I discovered a little error, might be a typing error, but maybe a meaningful one. Later I&#8217;ll talk about that. Please come back.</p>
