For all of the news about Google's implicit threat to evict ad agencies from their traditional role as go-betweens for clients and their commercial content, now publishers of all types are getting in on the game.

Even companies who believe "the customer is always right," if there are very many of them left, don't mean it literally. They mean something like, "We try to accomodate the customer, even when they are wrong." But beyond addressing the immediate symptom (the heart of "the customer is always right" philosophy), there are valid reasons why you shouldn't dismiss (or disregard) customer stories that you don't consider accurate:

CBS aired a lengthy segment on “mind reading” that offered quite a bit of good information on how various labs are using fMRI to determine what people are thinking. Reporter Lesley Stahl began the piece at Carnegie Mellon University, where profs Marcel Just and Tom Mitchell are doing amazing work in which they use a computer to predict what object someone is thinking about (See CMU Computers Read Thoughts.)
One of the things that struck me recently as I was teaching a class in Blogging and Social Media at San Francisco’s Academy of Art University is that whatever technology I was teaching about might not be here next year. I tried to take an approach where I didn’t teach tools so much as much as tried to demonstrate what creative and amazing things people were doing with the tools. I was trying to teach these guys how to be curious, creative, and to think critically. When I saw this video today it just slammed that fact home.
Things are changing at such a rapid pace, and it’s not just technology. Technology and specifically the web has become a ‘culture accelerator’ or a ‘culture globalizer’. Just as Television accelerated change in culture across America, the internet is accelerating change in culture around the world. The developing countries are in many ways like America was in the 50’s. Lots of new technology, new concepts of free time, and disposable income.
I’ve heard people describe developed nations moving to a Post Consumerism society, and I think the hybrid economies talked about by Lawrence Lessig and the cogitative surplus described Clay Shirky are examples of a Post-Consumer thinking (I’ve written further about those concepts here). Now, it is unrealistic to imagine that developed nations have fully become post-consumerist society but it is happening. But my question is, how quickly will the developing nations move beyond the new consumer culture that is being foisted upon them and adopt a more meaningful model of creativity and consumption? I hope the culture accelerator does that otherwise our planet is in even more trouble than it already is.

You’ve got to love the Dutch, never running out of ideas and seemingly always a step ahead when it comes to innovation. This time they’ve turned their hands to a worlds first, YouTube at the Cinema, cleverly titled Upload Cinema.
Upload Cinema IS a wonderful idea. A members only film club that takes the best web films and displays them on the big screen for weekly get-togethers. Shown every Monday on a full-sized screen at the De Uitkijk theater in Amsterdam, the idea is to offer a feature length stream of internet shorts based on a particular theme.
According to Barbara de Wijn and Dagan Cohen, Upload Cinema’s founders:
Upload Cinema wants to take this exciting new way of making and sharing film out of the domestic realm, away from the internet and the tiny computer screen and into a space that’s designed for a collective experience: the cinema.
Sponsored by Amsterdam advertising agency Draftfcb, Upload Cinema is by invitation only, however you can apply for membership here.
Also, if you fancy setting up an Upload Cinema in your town/city, see details at the bottom of the page here.
Hopefully, the comments at the event are a bit more tasteful than the ones you’ll find at the bottom of a YouTube video page!

Earlier today we drew your attention to the release of Picasa for the Mac, well now Apple has made the next move and it hasn’t waited around, they’ve released iLife 09 with a variety of spanking new features.
The three most unique being:
Faces. An intriguing addition to the application allowing you to organise your photo collection by the people in the photos! Although not perfect, it’s far better than even I could have expected on viewing the demo.
Places. A way to instantly view your photos based on where they were taken. Thanks to built-in GPS and ironically Google maps, iPhoto translates the latitude and longitude into recognisable places.
Facebook Integration. iPhoto integrates with Facebook allowing you to tag the people in your photos with your friends names from Facebook. Definitely something i’m looking forward to incorporating.
Other new features worth mentioning include;
i) iPhoto has brand new slideshow themes bringing life to your photos and the slideshows can then be saved onto your iPhone or touch!
ii) Smart folders to organise your photos as you wish.
I have to say, I am highly impressed with this new release. For a split second there, I had abandoned the idea of using iPhoto and focused on a future with Picasa… Where do your photos belong?

Hey! happy new year everybody! Not about interactive itself but i found this interesting: Do you think that there should be a category awarding the best practices to make this world a better place? Then maybe you're interested in supporting this initiative called Humanitarian.
Yesterday, Google announced the beta release of Picasa for the Mac, something which Mac users have been nagging Google for since it’s inception. With ‘most of the core features of Picasa on Windows’ Google proe
Picasa for Mac will have “most of the core features of Picasa on Windows” according to Google, “…we’ll be working on more refinements to the Mac interface and feature set as time goes on,”.
ImpressionsFor a first release i’m pretty impressed. Drag and drop functionality, decent integration with iPhoto, retouching brush, slideshow movie maker, autocropping and an auto red-eye removal is not a bad first line up. In addition, there’s the auto-sharing to Picasa web albums and tagging/organisation options which needless to say, work very well.
If you haven’t had a play yet, I highly recommend downloading the app here: [picasa.google.com] . But most importantly come back and share you’re thoughts with us, enough to make you switch from Flickr, Smugmug or Phanfare?
If you’re not a professional designer, it might be hard to come up with the right font for the right message. Stuart Robinson wants to make your life easier by offering you a new to explore the popular typefaces on your computer. It’s called Flipping Typical and it’s actually really handy. Just type in the test text and make your pick out of the results:
He has created some hidden elements and measured them before and after changing their font-family to figure out which fonts are on your computer. It works with on Firefox 2+, Safari 3+, IE7+ (OS/X a fair bit nicer than Windows).

One of our favorite sources for discovering new services is the Museum of Modern Betas (MoMB). It has an impressive track record, as the blog - founded and painstakingly maintained by Saurier Duval - reviewed the 6000th beta last October.
MoMB’s Duval is the perfect example of somebody who has put his heart in something and creates something really useful and beautiful over the years.
The betas blogger has the tradition of publishing a short list of the year. Although he skipped it in 2007, he did rank the betas of 2005, 2006, and now 2008. Here’s the top three, but make sure you browse to MoMB to check out the runner ups. They’re also rather interesting and different than the ones you see on the major tech blogs.

Last night, editor in chief of Lifehacker - sixth blog of the world - Gina Trapani announced that she will pass the blog torch to editor Adam Pash:
An ultra short bioAfter a wild and woolly four years at the helm, I’m stepping down from the site lead position to work on Some New Stuff on a day-to-day basis in 2009.
Trapani a a Sun-certified Java programmer and builds Firefox extensions and web sites. She has written two books about the Lifehacker philosophy and authored articles for Popular Science, Wired, Women’s Health, PC World and Macworld.
The Wall Street Journal Online wrote a piece about her and some of the world’s largest magazines couldn’t resist the temptation of mentioning her.
You just gotta love her GTD tipsThe last couple of months, her Getting Things Done tips really improved the way I work blog. Therefore, I might as well share my two favorites - as they can be projected on other professions too. She has mentioned them in an interview with Michael A Banks for his book Blogging Heroes:
Another favorite is the interview she had with the king of eliminating work, Mr. Tim Ferriss.
Trapani told Ferriss that she rejects the super-structured, old school of time management thought. “As a “web worker,” by nature I embrace serendipity and tangents, and like to keep myself open to working on unexpected things that excite me, even if they’re not in the plan”, Trapani said. Read the rest of a summary I made on The Next Web.
Will she share her secrets for blogging?Many people have wondered how Trapani is able to pump out so many posts as she does. Will she share those secrets a few months after she stepped down? Let’s hope so. It’s gonna turn the blogosphere into a GTD battlefield. Interesting…
