Smartphone saturation/adoption wayyyyy up.

2011-02-19T06:24:00.001-08:00

Smartphone adoption in the US and Europe increased dramatically in 2010, new figures have shown, which may affect the number of individuals using IP telephony via mobile devices.

Latest numbers from technology research firm comScore showed the proportion of mobile subscribers with handheld computers hit 27 per cent last year, an increase of ten percentage points from 2009.

In Europe, the figure was up to 31 per cent in 2010 from 21 per cent the year before.

Commenting on the findings, comScore senior vice president of mobile Mark Donovan said the last 12 months had been "game-changing" for the mobile phone sector.

"Smartphone adoption, 3G penetration and unlimited data plans drove a surge of mobile media consumption across geographies and deepened the integration of mobile devices into everyday life," he remarked.

Mr Donovan went on to state that the next 12 months has the potential to be yet more productive, as mobile telephony becomes increasingly important as a platform across the whole economy.

Recent figures from In-Stat predicted the number of IP telephony devices sold worldwide will top 40 million by 2015.

Staggering news from the world of AR: The reality of augmented reality in mobile

2010-07-27T09:15:00.000-07:00

A good take on the future of AR in mobile devices. Here is the staggering quote, ..."Though the market opportunity simply has not materialized yet, it likely will. According to a November report from Juniper Research, revenue from AR will not exceed even $2 million in 2010--but will balloon to $732 million by 2014."

How Starbucks Got 10 Million Facebook Fans?

2010-07-26T19:32:00.000-07:00

Very nice case study/article on the power of brands under the viral influence.

"Consumers have massively embraced social media. These digital dictators are able to make or break your brand in the social media space, and they know that too. So jumping into all kind of social channels will damage quite a few brands and their reputation.

Can you imagine how stupid some brands are, by rushing into Twitter, Facebook and YouTube without having any kind of social media marketing strategy, tactics or specialist social marketing agency at all" Article link here.

Smug Magazine

2009-02-23T08:12:00.000-08:00

Ok, was digging through the archives and found some magazine work from the mid-90's. Smug Magazine was a rock publication that covered established and upcoming acts. My end of it was to help out with design anywhere I could. I designed their masthead, several display typfaces and many spreads and covers. As you can see above, it was a thrill to work on the David Byrne and Korn covers.

With all the work the my team and I did at Colangelo for Trojan to raise the public awareness of the sexual health crisis in America, I think the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 is a hell of a lot better indicator of the effectiveness of the program than a damn click-thru rate.

More and more, savvy vacationers research their options on the Web, yet only 17 percent of North Americans have ever taken a cruise. Carnival turned to Avenue A | Razorfish, which designed funshipisland.com, a virtual world that recreates a Carnival Cruise online. Visitors get an immersive, firsthand experience of a cruise, from the serenity of a spa to the thrills and chills of an onboard water park. The site drew more than 1 million visitors and 100 million impressions in its first four months.

Ernie Shenck has a new book out and I am running to get it. Ernie is an advertising genius and brilliant copywriter. The link above is to a column in CA that Ernie pens. In his column, when he talks about,'creative judo,' and ,'thinking inside the box,' I just get tingles. For most of my career, I have had mostly client with little to no budget. This puts your back to the wall and forces you to ask many questions. It forces you to use the economies of execution and messaging. You can't rely on the Director, the Editor or your rich media takeover of Yahoo's homepage to do the job.

Case in point: my first job out of art school was as the Graphic Designer for the Knitting Factory in NYC. An avant-guard, music club in below Canal St., the Knit had some of the best musicians in the world but little to no budget to promote them. Usually, it was $500, which translated into 500 1 color posters that we had postered around town on the cheap by the punker, bar-backs from the club(now this is called street marketing). My motivation was if you didn't notice the poster, you didn't go to the club, if your didn't go to the club , you didn't buy a ticket to see the band and you didn't buy beer. What this would lead to is me not getting paid. So it was in my best interest to make the communication of the poster memorable and to motivate you into the club. I could have used Ernie's book 12 years ago.
