I really like WeTransfer too. Making file transfer sexy again. The hi-res background changes as your file uploads. The images are actually ad buys. They’re usually visually interesting and “unbranded” except for the little link in bottom right hand corner. This image is for Bugaboo Strollers.

I would pull 80% of NBC Universal’s content from competing services and give it away for free to my own subscribers. It would be my $30 billion loss leader, producing content for my internet and cable subscribers.

Just saying.

Trendwatching's 10 Crucial Consumer Trends for 2010

Tue, 01 Dec 2009 16:15:32 -0800

Trendwatching's 10 Crucial Consumer Trends for 2010:

bunch:

1. BUSINESS AS UNUSUAL
Forget the recession: the societal changes that will dominate 2010 were set in motion way before we temporarily stared into the abyss.

2. URBANY
Urban culture is the culture. Extreme urbanization, in 2010, 2011, 2012 and far beyond will lead to more sophisticated and demanding consumers around the world.

3. REAL-TIME REVIEWS
Whatever it is you’re selling or launching in 2010, it will be reviewed ‘en masse’, live, 24/7.

4. (F)LUXURY
Closely tied to what constitutes status, which itself is becoming more fragmented, luxury will be whatever consumers want it to be over the next 12 months.

5. MASS MINGLING
Online lifestyles are fueling ‘real world’ meet-ups like there’s no tomorrow, shattering all predictions about a desk-bound, virtual, isolated future.

6. ECO-EASY
To really reach some meaningful sustainability goals in 2010, corporates and governments will have to forcefully make it ‘easy’ for consumers to be more green, by restricting the alternatives.

7. TRACKING & ALERTING
Tracking and alerting are the new search, and 2010 will see countless new INFOLUST services that will help consumers expand their web of control.

8. EMBEDDED GENEROSITY
Next year, generosity as a trend will adapt to the zeitgeist, leading to more pragmatic and collaborative donation services for consumers.

9. PROFILE MYNING
With hundreds of millions of consumers now nurturing some sort of online profile, 2010 will be a good year to help them make the most of it (financially), from intention-based models to digital afterlife services.

10. MATURIALISM
2010 will be even more opinionated, risque, outspoken, if not ‘raw’ than 2009; you can thank the anything-goes online world for that. Will your brand be as daring?

We love helping publishers make their content available to large groups of readers, and working on ways to make the world’s information useful and accessible through our search results. At the same time, we’re also aware of the fact that creating high-quality content is not easy and, in many cases, expensive. This is one of the reasons why we initially launched First Click Free for Google News and Google Web Search — to allow publishers to sell access to their content in general while still allowing users to find it through our search results.

IBM Debuts Food Traceability iPhone App

Today at the IBM Information on Demand event, IBM will demo a new app that will bring the Internet of Things to the iPhone. The as yet unreleased iPhone app is called Breadcrumbs and it will give consumers access to information about grocery food items. The app will be able to scan barcodes and deliver a summary of the ingredients in a food item, along with when it was manufactured. That data is usually on the food label, but Breadcrumbs goes a step further - it can provide extra information such as product recall data. If a product has been recalled in the past, this app will tell the consumer all of the relevant details.

As someone who happens to appreciate a number of the products DWR has brought to market, it’s disheartening to read about how low the design & executive teams were willing to go just to make a little more money just to satisfy the board. It is quite possibly one of the most dangerous ways to move forward with a business.

DWR has done a lot of good, and I’m happy to read that there’s at least some conscience to cut the shit and get back to what made it what it is.

solid piece jeff.

My friend, Doug Petkanics, is a true startup hero. In less than two weeks, he released Snapm - a marketplace for amateur photographers to post interesting work and for consumers to discover/hire their services. Take a look around, explore and offer feedback.

v1.0 underway! Kudos Doug.

tedroden:

I enjoy reading ReadWriteWeb.com, it’s a solid site. However, one little detail has always bothered me: its use of the majestic plural or royal we. So, rather than ignore it, I did what any other rational person would do…

I created a greasemonkey script to change “we” to “I” on readwriteweb.com. It’s terribly done, but you can install it for yourself.

I’m becoming quite the greasemonkey nerd. See also: my “I fixed tumblr” script.
