Game over 
| | Simply put, companies like Google and Overture are blowing away everything the old advertising business holds dear. Beautiful images. Attention-grabbing graphics. Awards. Strategy. Even old conventions like branding — a term Procter & Gamble borrowed from the cattle industry, back when they created mass media advertising in the dawn of commercial radio more than 70 years ago. They're blowing it away by connecting users and advertisers and helping both offer something valuable to each other. |
Bummer
| | Lou points to news that Jerry Williams, who did talk radio approximately forever, has died. I used to listen to him in North Carolina at night on Boston's WBZ, back in the late 60s and early 70s. He was good. |
| | Jerry Williams was the first liberal (yup) liberal talk show host. On BZ the 50k flamethrower he was the the only host to come out against the Vietnam War. |
