  • Privacy Watchdog Group Files Complaint Against Facebook: They “Messed With People’s Minds”
    A privacy watchdog group today filed a formal complaint with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission claiming that Facebook “purposefully messed with people’s minds” with its psychological research in 2012. The Electronic Privacy Information Center charged that the research study — which manipulated the News Feeds of nearly 700,000 Facebook users to study their emotions — […]
  • Lexus Illuminates Kuala Lumpur Skyline With LED-Lit Stuntmen
    There isn’t anything particularly interactive — or interactive at all — about today’s Creative Of The Day, but this work from CHI & Partners for Lexus is quite cool. “Strobe” is a one-minute film which captures stuntmen in LED light suits suspended in midair throughout the city of Kuala Lumpur. The video is shot to make it appear […]
  • Facebook Wants To Know If Posts In Your News Feed “Feel” Like Ads
    Facebook has set a very high bar for advertising on its network, pushing for ads that “delight” users as much as posts from your friends and family.

  • Essential Mobile SEO Resources
    It occurred to me as I was making my personal site responsive and adding recommended resources that I’ve been doing this column for over five years and have yet to share with you readers a comprehensive list of the mobile SEO resources I recommend.

  • 20 Reasons Why Social Analytics Is A Nightmare — And What To Do About It

  • VIDEO + SLIDESHOW: Why Marketing Automation Does Not Equal A Strategy
    The promise of marketing automation and marketing technology is “to do a lot with a little effort.” It helps you become more efficient, measure better and provides a solid conduit to your customers. It also allows you to connect with new customers in ways you never thought possible. What marketing automation will never build is […]

    If you are a Facebook Advertiser that found yourself perplexed by your most recent ad receipt you can breathe a sigh of relief as the mix-up was likely the result of a system-wide issue.
