Paul Kelso of The Telegraph said that: “Twitter is going to be the de facto news delivery service for the 2012 Games.”

London 2012 will be the social media Olympics. Obviously we are 4 years on from Beijing with 4 years of advancement, but this time there will is official integration of social media assets with the Olympics. Plus athletes and competitors will be online, tweeting their experiences (where they are allowed to of course) and part of an Olympics online hub which showcases all the athletes and promotes their Twitter and Facebook pages.  Read the rest of this entry »

Big dataAlmost every minute of the day you are adding to the world’s vast reservoir of Big Data, reported the Today programme on BBC Radio 4.

As individuals and organisations we are using more and more data. There is so much data being generated the rewards are huge for the companies that can analyse it all and better predict our buying habits and behaviour. Previously utilising this data would only be available to the biggest companies.

Intelligent Positioning is one of these such companies. We use vast amounts of data everyday to better understand website performance and what it takes to perform well in the search engines for 100,000s of keywords across scores of countries.

Do you remember Tomorrow’s World on the BBC? It was a TV programme that looked into the future and gave 5 minutes of time to crazy inventors from the home counties. It was all about predictions for the future such as people taking hovercrafts to work or even watching mini TVs built into their sunglasses.

Well one of these things looks like its close to being built by Google’s secretive X Lab – and it’s not the hovercraft.

The invention in question is called Project Glass, where Google released photos and posted a video to YouTube to preview the company’s long-rumoured activity in the spectacle business.

What is Google Project Glass?

Well Project Glass looks like Google is attempting to give everyone total, uninhibited access to all its clever applications (such as Maps and Google+ etc) in a pair of glasses – while you walk down the street. Have a look at this typical Google-style promotion video, where the guy in question uses all the services to the betterment of his existence.

Google Logo 2012We’ve been asked by a lot of people “What is Keyword Not Provided” in Google Analytics?” 

In order to make our searches ‘safer’ Google announced in October 2011 that it would start to encrypt searches for users who were logged in to their Google account through Google.com. This would include their subdomains such as Google Plus. This has since rolled out in the UK as of March 5th and I wanted to document the initial impact of the change for webmasters and brand managers.

Mothers Day is big. And not just when you miss it and your dear Mum gives you the guilty treatment. It is nowadays a major day in the gift calendar and not just a day to pick daffodils from the local park.

In terms of search, “Mother’s day” in 2012 is a major gift day, obviously not as big as Christmas but bigger in terms of search than Father’s Day, Graduation and perhaps more surprisingly even Valentines Day. But then again, pretty much everyone has a mother, but not everyone has a lover. Read the rest of this entry »

If you ever wondered how many people use particular social media sites every minute, here is the answer. Based on views on YouTube, Likes on Facebook and Stumbles on Stumbleupon here is a sexy infographic by those clever people at Social Jump Start .

We’re so used to reading big numbers within the social industry that they are having less impact. Despite that, these social media usage figures are colossal. The 7,610 Linked-in searches was the most surprising to me, that’s a lot of recruitment executives and sales people online in any one minute.  Read the rest of this entry »
