How Do You Get Your News?
Social Networks Play a Major Part in How We Get News [STATS]

• Encourage them to distribute this content on social networks and digital markets in the form of a digital currency.
• Craft this is a way that it rebounds to the credit of the brand, turning digital currency (and narrative meaning) into a value for the brand.In effect, outsource some of our marketing work. And in the process, turn the brand itself into an “agent” and an enabler of cultural production that is interesting and fun. Now the marketer is working with contemporary culture instead of against it. And everyone is well-served.

Copyright and Digital Media – (Turkeys)
I was reading an online article from the Financial Times and noticed the following copyright notice:
Copyright The Financial Times Limited 2009. You may share using our article tools. Please don’t cut articles from FT.com and redistribute by email or post to the web.
As a result of this notice I did not provide a link within a post but used Twitter instead. I guess I’m legally protected and FT will be happy someone followed their rules. My notice is a little different.

In the digital world, though, social networks are now bigger than most national populations, more people are consuming more news and information than ever before, and an archive of all the world’s knowledge is being built and streamed to your favorite device. This new world brings with it as much promise as pain. It’s like youth that way.

This article is nearly 5 years old but still provides a good overview of generational issues in the workplace. The chart on workplace characteristics is priceless.
