    Remember Podcasting? Listeners Do.

    Podcasting is about as long tail as it gets.

    Although there are a few highly-rated podcasts with more than 100,000 listeners/viewers, most podcasts have far smaller audiences, highly-focused on niche interests.

    According to long-tail theory, these targeted audiences should be especially valuable to advertisers and marketers. Although the audiences are small, each listener or viewer is very interested in the subject, and the audiences should therefore carry commensurately higher ad pricing.

    In fact, eMarketer predicts that US podcast ad spending will grow to $435 million by 2012 from $165 million in 2007.

    LED Backlit Displays

    For over a year, LED-backlit displays have made it to a limited number of laptop models, usually those more expensive desktop replacements 15” inches and under, and ultra-portables like the Sony TZ and most recently the Apple MacBook Air. Research firm iSupply is now ready to state the obvious, LEDs are set to become the next big thing on mobile displays.

    With an apparent stagnation on battery-related technological advances, multiple efforts from chip makers have been made to increase power at little or no cost of performance, and results have been quite decent so far. After all, we can now run a speedy dual-core Intel CPU on our laptops without being punished as harshly as we did on the days of the awful Pentium 4 mobile.

    NAA Reveals Biggest Ad Revenue Plunge in More Than 50 Years
    By Jennifer Saba

    NEW YORK The newspaper industry has experienced the worst drop in advertising revenue in more than 50 years.

    According to new data released by the Newspaper Association of America, total print advertising revenue in 2007 plunged 9.4% to $42 billion compared to 2006—the most severe percent decline since the association started measuring advertising expenditures in 1950.

    The drop-off points to an economic slowdown on top of the secular challenges faced by the industry. The second worst decline in advertising revenue occurred in 2001 when it fell 9.0%.

    Total advertising revenue in 2007—including online revenue—decreased 7.9% to $45.3 billion compared to the prior year.

    There are signs that online revenue is beginning to slow as well.

    YouTube Reveals Video Analytics Tool for All Users

    Whether a YouTube video has 10 views or 10,000,000, people always want to know the same thing: who’s watching this? Where do viewers come from? How did they find my video?

    Finally, we have some answers. A couple weeks ago YouTube released YouTube Insight, a free tool that enables anyone with a YouTube account to view detailed statistics about the videos that they upload to the site. For example, uploaders can see how often their videos are viewed in different geographic regions, as well as how popular they are relative to all videos in that market over a given period of time. You can also delve deeper into the lifecycle of your videos, like how long it takes for a video to become popular, and what happens to video views as popularity peaks.

    How does this help you? Well, using these metrics, you can increase your videos’ view counts and improve your popularity on the site. For instance, you might learn that your videos are most popular on Wednesdays, that you have a huge following in Spain, or that new videos that play off previous content become more popular more quickly. With this information, you can concentrate on creating compelling new content that appeals to your target audiences, and post these videos on days you know these viewers are on the site. (Maybe even post your next video in Spanish?) And for those of you who are also partners, the more popular a video is, the more advertising revenue it can generate.

    AT&T First to Introduce Microsoft Surface in Retail Stores

    LAS VEGAS — April 1, 2008 — AT&T (NYSE: T) and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) today announced a collaborative alliance that will transform the way consumers shop for mobile devices. AT&T will become the first company in the world to bring Microsoft Surface to life in a retail environment, giving customers the ability to explore their mobile worlds using touch and device recognition technology.
