With O2, Deutsche Telekom, Orange and Vodafone, Apple deepens the market game in the Touch Phone industry From lainformación.com via cincodias.com and other sources, it is observed that the leaders in the market for the 3G Touche Phone industry and more, are moving contracts in the face of a soon-to-be turbulent market with more than 30 models which will be launched in the months leading up to December 2009. Our readings indicate that the most potent challenger for the iPhone and the BlackBerry, which lead the Touch Phone industry, appears to be the Motorola CLIQ, but, whichever stands out in innovation will launch alone in a limited market during the coming season (see CLIQ an innovation...

CLIQ, una innovación de Motorola que podría prender el mercado de los móviles táctiles La competencia no para, el lema parece decir innova o muere, incluso al medio de una  crisis que tiene color azul profundo o que tendrá rebotes por algunos años, la telefonía móvil no para. En el reinado impuesto con celeridad por iPhone y BlackBerry, su más permanente retador en los últimos años, parece que renacen con fuerza algunos competidores de siempre. Parece que la competencia también incentiva la imaginación y la carencia de creatividad ya que en España y países de América Latina están lanzando el supuesto Android, de la mano con la tecnología Google, nuevos móviles  táctiles,...

Como muy bien señala 10.000words.net “no es ningún secreto que Twitter desafía a los medios tradicionales cuando se trata de las últimas noticias”. La investigación de Burson Marsteller, que se explica en un gráfico y que tiene el aporte de medir esta ventaja  y entregar un parámetro donde las online Publishing  están cerca de una hora y veinte minutos atrás de Twitter y los medios tradicionales  como televisión y periódicos están cerca de 2 y ochos horas atrás. Es un reto entender y teorizar la amplitud y profundidad que pueden tomar estos reporteros instantáneos apoyados por una tecnología cada vez más potente.

Recibí a través de la WFSF un email de Natalie Dean del The Vision Center, Suecia, donde comparte su visión de la premier de The Age of Stupid , en Gotemburgo, Suecia. “Se trata de una poderosa llamada de atención, aunque creo que insuficiente. Los glaciares del Himalaya  muestran estar derritiéndose más rápido de lo esperado lo que podría ser la primera de muchas corrientes de inmigrantes en la tierra". Para Dean es un tema  enorme y complejo pensar en varios miles de millones de personas procedentes de Pakistán y Bangladesh, sin agua, y tratando de llegar a otros países. Como nota de la redacción un comentario breve: es un tema que se nos viene de punta quizás en menos de...

iPod, Walkman and the Muses: a trio that delivers continuous surprises There exists a good and attractive origin to the concept of the voice or “music”: according to the fantastic but in this case a bit disorganized effort of Wikipedia it is “the art of the muses”, the goddesses or nymphs, depending on the period. They are the beings who inspire the fountains of art. Between them is this coherent combination of sounds and silences. Currently and with a modern perspective it is accepted in general that music is a cultural product that is attributed to ancient Greece. That which is cultural is something belonging under current canons. It is well marked in the beginning of the Prolegomenon,...

Could this be a way of uniting the traditional press with the digital world? This news story, launched by BBC World and other media players, brought Harry Potter to mind and those impressive newspapers with moving pictures. This month, subscribers of the New York and Los Angeles Entertainment Weekly, will receive a magazine with images appearing on a two-inch mobile phone display, that will produce almost 40 minutes worth of television clips from US TV network CBS, as well as the cutting-edge publicity promotion for Pepsi Max. The device developed by Americhip and known as ‘video-in-print’, works by using digitalised information held in a microchip. Like Michio Kaku demonstrates through...

Originally published in 2009, 16 June, by Gina Trapani on The Harvard Bussiness Blog. Shared with the permission of the Harvard Bussiness School (www.hbs.edu). --- Over the past five years I've worked off-site and online for employers across the country using email, chat, and web-based collaboration apps. My work life has been the envy of my traditional nine-to-five friends. While they suit up in an office-appropriate outfit, grab the briefcase, and brave a commute every weekday, I get to work from home (and my employers get to save money on office space). But working with people in different cities and time zones with minimal face time presents a whole new set of challenges. While...

Was it merely an isolated case or a loud outcry in the process of systematic change? In 1969 no one talked about the Web, Microsoft, or Twitter; they simply did not exist. Ideas sought channels of expression beyond the mere industry of mass communication; alternative channels that would generate enough force to provide recognition by mass media and/or propose their own paths to expel ideas and concepts. Perhaps  Woodstock, besides being a festival, was a non-traditional method of expression that today the youth can carry out through the Web. The participants of this rock tsunami, which flooded the Western world, were men and women who today are between the ages of 55 and 75 years...
