Manning the Digital Media Strategy Ecosystem in 2009 and beyond...

Incomplete: notes

As the Digital Media landscape continues to fractionalize and disintegrate into consumer anarchy, are consumers ready for an economy with very little products to "buy"?

engagement q's:
Are you currently engaged with your consumers or just starting to? Have you identified niche market places that house demand for your (clients) brands? Do you "interact" with your consumers or do you still "talk to them?"

What is the makeup / design / methadology / delivery of the strategy? Where do we see Digital Media taking the Brand?

- Community has been the answer (goal) to core branding and niche based revenue models since (1995-9).
- Manning the system is based upon a devised and early analysis of current trends/status and goal oriented decision making.

Is it about time to transition off the Grid? The URL has fallen.

What have I done? Dr. Frankenstein


Is it possible that the almighty URL has fallen from its perch and taken a fatal blow by the disintegration of the Digital Media landscape? A website presence is no longer required as part of any online launch. Websites are now called applications by those who build (develop) them. The rabid rise of Social Networking and the capability of boundless self promotion across multiple global platforms of millions and millions of opt in humans, bots, worms, bugs, etc in single key strokes is absolutely incredible. People are producing their own (interesting!) content at shocking turnaround rates, year after year, more and more, and posting it online for all to experience and comment on. Connecting the dots was never so easy. What does this mean for Cybernetic culture design?


It is no longer a requirement to have an URL when a Social Network marketing (ecosystem) plan will actually work. With the recent enabling of a wider, hyper-interactive, user base via the belief that Broadband connectivity is as needed as the radio, telephone, television was when it was originally made available, we know it is a matter of time of its demise.


The future is a combination of micro niche efforts under the Outer most Use Case. Things do not look good for pay-per-article (newspapers) as a silver bullet. The ongoing aggregation of cherry picked (global) content to "user" pages is the future.

Clearly, politics has been changed forever ... micro-donations in the political arena are thriving and propelled now President Obama to the Oval office.


We are either witnessing or experiencing a time in history where citizens have been enabled via the Internet to take back the journalistic and political platforms from a grassroots perspective. It is a time in history of the possibility of true political RAD reformation. Citizen 3D. Let's hope no Henry VIII lurks behind the curtain...

Forrest Ackerman - RIP 1916 - 2008

Post:
I know this is a Technology blog but some might say or think that Science Fiction and Technology go hand and hand - by design. So we think about the news of the death of Forrest Ackerman in context and pause. A great creative thinker has left the earth.

Election User base ...

notes:

We are not commenitng yet on "who" won the ratings game, but we can say for sure that this election "seals the deal" that "New Media" is a fact and that the Networks are now listed in the same breath as websites. What started in 2000 has landed in 2008.
