Nokia N95 and a Filmmaking Deal with Spike LeeAuthored by Jay Baage on April 24, 2008 - 6:58am.
I really like the PR and marketing efforts that Nokia (NYSE: NOK) is doing with its N95 model, giving it to reporters and bloggers as a video news gathering tool (Nope, I have not been given one, so I do not need to disclose anything). Think about it, what better way to showcase that the phone is really a "multi-media computer" now, as Nokia's senior management like to put it? I don't think this beet.tv piece was shot with an N95, but it highlights some interesting issues as another interesting Nokia marketing project was revealed today which involves the American director Spike Lee (read the NYT piece here).

Buzz Watch: Flickr (Finally) Launches Video ApplicationAuthored by Jay Baage on April 9, 2008 - 6:18am.
Flickr, my favorite photo sharing service (owned by Yahoo! (NASD: YHOO)), just launched a much anticipated video service. The embedded player is really nice (see above), but a limiting feature is that the videos can't be more than 90 seconds with a max upload size of 150MB. Why? The company claims that it is because Flickr is all about "sharing photos that you yourself have taken", hence they don't want people to upload copyright protected videos like movies and TV shows. It will be interesting to see how that strategy works out for them. BTW, pretty cool that they choose to announce the new service with a puppet show. I haven't seen that before...

Analysis: Facebook Traffic Back to Christmas Peak in the U.K.Authored by Robin Goad on March 25, 2008 - 6:10am.
Following on from last week's post, Is Facebook on the decline in the UK?, I thought that this chart might be of interest. Facebook's market share of UK Internet visits last week (w/e 22 March 2008) was equal to its previous record high of 2.16% during the Christmas week (w/e 29 December 2007).

Buzz Watch: Radiohead Music Video ContestAuthored by Jay Baage on March 17, 2008 - 6:02am.
The band Radiohead continues to engage its fans in new creative ways by joining forces with the independent animation site Aniboom for a contest that will earn one lucky winner $10,000 to produce a music video for the group. As the site NewTeeVee points out, it is hardly the first time a band or artist has invited fans to create a music video, but the fact that the band has teamed up with an independent animation studio, not tied to one of the major media companies, is worth noting...

Buzz Watch: YouTube's New Video Player With AdsAuthored by Jay Baage on February 25, 2008 - 1:26pm.
So, here it is, GooTube's new video player with embedded advertising. Google claims that this YouTube player will automatically target the most relevant videos and ads for your website. If you would like to help refine the targeting, you can enter some keyword hints. In this case, I've tried to target the content to DMW's audience by entering keywords such as Music, Video, TV, Mobile, Games, Tech, Investing, Venture Capital, etc. The player embedded above is the result.
