feeding frenzy number 7 (or seven?) - Google Search

Okay, I just gotta try it. It doesn't turn up in a Google search, but Jay Leno just had a so-called "star" of... special films. Yeah. We'll leave it at that. A star of "special films" on his "Jay Walking" segment. It's the good dancer/bad dancer thing. Followed by a minister -- what a combo.

Anyway, this dancer's movie (I won't search for the other one, given its title) didn't turn up in Google. Think anyone else is going to search for it? :) If so... here you are!

My blog is actually indexed by Yahoo. It's only indexed by Google every third Tuesdays during a full moon, it seems, but Yahoo has it. And I get tons of Kari Byron posts. So when I did a mental double-take at Jay's "street dancing" segment and did a search (with Ruth's permission) for this film title, and found nothing... I realized that, if I could get that post indexed by Yahoo before The Tonight Show aired on the west coast, I might pick up some hits.

More hits, more ad impressions. More ad impressions, more clicks -- we hope.

It didn't happen, but it was worth a try -- especially to confuse friends of mine. :)

Passing on Panel Discussions?

In his latest podcast ( Blogarithms IT Conversations News: August 14, 2005 ), Doug Kaye mentioned an interesting anecdotal tidbit: People seem less interested in panel discussions at conferences than they do in single speakers. The panel discussions get lower ratings at ITConversations.com, and... there was some other reason he mentioned it, too. (Okay, so I don't remember. Sorry!) As I was listening to one of their panel discussions this morning, I had a thought: It was really hard to follow. It takes a lot of mental energy to keep up with who's-saying-what. And I don't even particular care about the who's-who; it would be even worse if I really need to know which person was making a particular point. Could that be what people are reacting to when they rate panel discussions lower than single-speaker talks?

Commercial comments (Blogging from Word!)

Ironically, I’ve got two commercial-related things going on in my mind right now. On the Ericast, I’ve been discussing how commercials are going to get more and more imbedded into content; I think we’re going to drift away from “spot radio” or “spot television”, and even drift away from traditional “product placement”, and move toward a picture-in-picture or screen crawl or other “embedded advertising”.  That way, you’ll be unable to avoid the advertisement… and you’ll want to see it, because skipping it would mean that you’d miss out on the content.  (Imagine, for example, a HGTV demo on sponge-painting that takes up the top 2/3rds of the screen, with the bottom 1/3rd showing things like “BEHR Paint on sale at Home Depot!  20% off!”.) I might hate living in a world filled with television that looks like that… but it probably would be effective. But, speaking of, I’ve found a program that removes commercials from MPG files!  And it really works!...
