50th Anniversary of the First Human Spaceflight

For a moment I was wondering why a basketball was placed beside a man in spacesuit. Oops!

Social Media Influences Website Traffic Indirectly

http://www.informationweek.com/articles/229401208

Article that suggest what we all already know – Social Media plays an important role in driving users to our owned sites. However, it is unclear how much traffic can be attributed to social media. It becomes even more difficult to attribute sales or acquisition data to social media.

Anyone has any good methodology?

Google Slanted

A colleague shared this very interesting fact about Google Mobile search.

Search the word “Slanted” in Google Mobile and the resulting search page will be tilted slightly. This works also in all languages.

Inspired

Had a good conversation with a colleague a while back and it triggered a whole array of thoughts and emotions that had been shelved safely away for a couple of years.

2 key take away:

1. Opportunity – the best time to get something done is when one is young

2. 3 years – usually the time it takes to either make a success of what is being done or to make a mess and forget about it.

Will be keeping and open mind to see what unique opportunities present themselves.
