The way how a large org. catches up with the trend……
As Standard Chartered Bank $150 note campaign 2nd ends, i shall now bring my little blog on the track.
Here’s a lovely presentation by Ian Stewart for Asia Youth 2009.
(View more documents from IAN STEWART.)
Actually, I connect real-life (or offline as it’s named, whatever) via facebook only with no online friend at all… or maybe a friend can co-exist in these two domain at the same time? (Mr. Whoever is both my online & offline friend ;) ) Despite of no concrete definition, this little graph should definitely provide some insights for you. (well, or do you see opportunities? =P)

By the way, i do really love how Ian map the “Rooms” between different “Age Group”.
Brilliant. =)

Hope that you can dig out some nuggets in this presentation. =)

An update in Twitter TOS. Perhaps the following new item will definitely interest most of our marketers:
Advertising—In the Terms, we leave the door open for advertising. We’d like to keep our options open as we’ve said before.
So Twitter is still exploring for a suitable bussiness model. Without panicing the users, properly an informal announcement via TOS update is always a good move to leave itself the door open. =)

What do you think? Would you vote a yes when Twitter really sell Ads., or do you have a better suggestion on how Twitter cash milking?

Yeah, he’s just a politician anyway.
Anyhow, his speech does worth to read.=)
