Web 2.0 Webinar-The New Opt-in Marketing Model | 6.25.2006
















A week ago, my colleague Jeanne and I did a Webinar for product managers, on how Web 2.0 is redefining relationship marketing. This was our first time doing a Webinar together and we had some fun with it. Click to hear the Podcast or to view the Flash version of the slides. This should prove pretty interesting for those of you who don't know exactly what Web 2.0 is or want to see some examples of how it's starting to permeate marketing. Enjoy!

Flashy Flash | 6.03.2006















spend lots of time doing competitive research when embarking on a particular project. Currently, I'm at various stages on 5 different Flash-based demos. A few of them are quick running animations and others involve story-boarding, talent and soundtrack selection, studio time and a kick ass Flash guy. Prior to starting on any of these, I typically do hours of research for any analog ideas and features as well as inspiration. Sometimes I come across these sites via google searches, other times I dig around in Macromedia's Site of The Day bin and yet other times, my network of designer friends all share ideas on what's cool and hip.

Let me know what your favorite is.

Below are 3 Flash-based demos that are fresh, have an edge and are fun to watch...mostly...Thanks to Dave for a couple of these.

1. 10X10 - Uses RSS, XML and tags to make this the most dynamic news site on the web. Beautifully simple and technically elegant.
2. Shock Absorber - A great consumer-based Flash piece. Must have been a very interesting project to work on.
3. Philips Bodygroom - I have to give Philips lots of credit for not being afraid to add a little edge to their product demo.
