Lots of links to get you through the long weekend (at least here in Canada):
- Contextual Advertising Now Available To Amazon Associates. I was taken aback when I hit a web site and saw that it’s amazon.com ad was featuring items I had just searched for. Robin Good explains how that happens.
- A real estate guy disses newspapers. An anecdote from Steve Outing that should send shivers through newspaper advertising offices.
- The impending schism. The always-entertaining Stewart Pittman nicely encapsulates the forces coming to bear on broadcast journalists.
- Media Idolatry. Vin Crosbie brings some reality to all the brave new talk of brave new media.
- Finding God. Great story from Doc Searls about the unintended invention of a radio station.
- When the analysts are right. Tim Porter with a (relatively) old-but-goodun challenges journalists to seize the digital journalism initiative.
