Just got this in an email this morning which excites me very much moving into 2010 that we are starting to see really portable devices that can stream in much HQ than we had in the last few years. Obviously bandwidth is still problem in making sure that these streams are high quality enough but the ability to have these units and a portable backpack of mobile broadband connectivity is surely going to take us to the next level of mobile media making.

The news from bambuser email is. ..

NEW VERSION FOR ANDROID - We've just released a new version of Bambuser for Android. Yes, it's awesome and it's available for download through the Android Market or our download page now.

HIGH RESOLUTION BROADCASTS - We also wanted to let you know that since the beginning of October we support live streaming in up to 720x480 on compatible Android and Symbian devices (like the Motorola Droid, Samsung Omnia HD, Sony Ericsson Satio etc). Just make sure that you have the latest and greatest version of our application.

Looks like time to pick up an android phone and start to have a play!

the wizard that is the @subwolf has been beavering away in his spare time and we are starting to make some nice progress on supporting lots of different geo located services onto of our google mapping solution for the conkertu project. We are hoping to support bambuser, youtube as well as the current ones of flickr and audioboo.

I need to really mock something up in photoshop regarding the ui and how we want it to look, we will probably have a row of media from different events in a combi view but we need to do a 'less is more' type activity to see what works best. really pleased at the progress. seems to be only working in firefox at the moment so needs a fix for safari and obviously testing on more browsers.

*update* it was just the cache on my safari.  seems to be working perfectly.

You can see the test system over on http://me.dm/mapping

When you start working with Social Media Marketing you need to measure it somehow. All sites and statistics need a place or category. It just makes it easier to find or gather together. Danny Sullivan (Guru) made his categorization on his blog. Here hare his subcategories of Social Media • Social News Sites • Social Bookmarking Sites • Social Networking • Social Knowledge • Social Sharing National Geographic’s subcategories of Social Media are quite similar • Social News Sites Digg Reddit Twitter Slashdot Jaiku • Social Bookmarking Sites StumbleUpon Diigo Delicious Meneame.net Propeller.com • Social Networking Facebook MySpace Orkut Care2 • Social Knowledge Wikipedia Yahoo Answers Squidoo Ask Metafilter • Social Media Sharing YouTube Flickr Tumblr DevianArt Recently I made my own categorization of Social Media and it looks like this. • Social Aggregators/Pushers Ping.fm Friendfeed Hello.txt Popurls Posterous Utterli Disqus • Social Bookmarking/Link sharing Diigo Delicious StumbleUpon Mister Wong Yahoo! Bookmarks • Social Collaboration Acrobat Skype • Social Experience Reporting Flixter Digg Reddit Yelp • Social Location Blogloc Fire Eagle IRL Connect Loki Plazes Tripit • Social Media News Chirps Jaiku Koornk Plurk Twitter Wordpress Blogger Xanga • Social Media Sharing 23 72 Photos Bebo.com Blip.tv Buzznet Drop.io Dropshots Fliggo Moblog Twitpic Viddler.com YouTube Zoomin • Social Live Broadcast Ustream Bambuser I will continue to work on my categories and post changes after evaluation. You can also look at the well known “The Coversation Prism” categorys Image address http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3009/2735401175_fcdcd0da03.jpg?v=0 Brians blog http://www.briansolis.com/2008/08/introducing-conversation-prism/

Insights Make Everyone Smarter - and help campaigns catch on fire.  Today's case in point: a Swedish outdoor retailer called "Playground" that grounded their effort around one insight, putting it to the test and achieving major results in the process. 

The insight:  hiking makes people healthier and more alert (from the Swedish Health Council).  Thus, if hiking makes you more alert, how long could avid hikers stay awake?  This formed the foundation for the posse at Playground to develop a campaign that would drive in-store traffic as well as launch the companies new e-commerce site - and the "Sleepless in Playground" movement was born.  The company hired four hiker athletes and gave them two missions - sell products and stay awake as long as they could. 

The company set-up a website which had some amazing features - heart rate monitor to see which hiker is drowsy, clock counting time each has been awake, a feed of each hikers Twitter comments, a pedometer to track real-time activity and used Bambuser running on iPhones to see the hikers in action.  And the company had a few twists - the first one, they were open 24 hours (as obviously there were some awake hikers around ready to serve) and the really great one - people bought equipment from the hiker they thought would stay awake the longest, getting a full refund of their purchase if they pick the right one.

Of course they received a ton of media coverage - trying to beat the world record of staying awake for 11 days - and ultimately the winner was up straight for just over 3 days.  Watch the video case study to see it all in action, and to check out some amazing stats showing the success of the campaign (i.e., huge traffic to retail store and online, social media buzz and more).  A great example of a campaign built on a solid insight that made the creative part so much easier and focused, definitely one not to yawn about (couldn't resist).
