Logorama on Vimeo Posted: 11 May 2010 03:43 AM PDT 17 Minute Award Winning Animated Short Film using over 2,500+ Logos. Its amazing to think how we adapt so many of these into our culture until they've become instantly recognizable symbols. Really shows where advertising and art can meet.

Pringles lampoons social media addicts Posted: 11 May 2010 03:33 AM PDT I find the Pringle's 'Oversharing' social media campaign quite funny and the Peter Crouch "Pringooals" thing is entertaining in its own way, but can't the two be combined so that we start publicizing Peter Crouch's banal Twitter updates for promotion and profit?

Twitter to Launch Twitter Business Center [SCREENSHOTS] Posted: 11 May 2010 03:23 AM PDT Twitter Business Center's auto-verification feature (allowing for the verified badge once your account is completely configured) is bound to drive uptake for the service. I'm wondering what the integrated analytics options for the service might still be though.

IBM Debuts New Social Media Analytics Tool Posted: 11 May 2010 03:07 AM PDT It really seems to be a Social Media Analytics heavy news day. I really want to play with the IBM tool, but I'm wary of any software that says it can process natural language for sentiment/jargon with any efficiency (barring a rather fancy mechanical turk setup)

PepsiCo adopts a range of new marketing tools - WARC Posted: 11 May 2010 03:05 AM PDT Interesting to see more client side tool development for social media tracking/analytics.
