Created by augmented reality specialists Ogmento , the application lets you launch a simulated iPhone on your iPhone screen . You can zoom your virtual iPhone or spin it around, but (here comes the crazy part), you can also run applications on it. The virtual “apps” aren’t real applications, but still, if there ever was an iPhone app that threatened to break the time-space continuum, this is it. See the video after the break.

Clearly, it’s a bold move by Telstra that will leave them open to plenty of criticism, but ultimately we think it’s a smart one that should foster a lot of conversation in the space. The tool itself is also very well put together and highly interactive – give it a whirl and let us know what stands out to you in the comments. Speaking of the decision to publish it on the Web, Telstra says that “while this communications environment has risks for corporate entities and individuals alike, we believe that with the right training and policy support the potential benefits far outweigh the risks … We have decided to open up this course to the scrutiny and feedback of the ‘outside world’ as it may assist other organisations and help raise the level of awareness about social media with staff.” We got a chance to take a look at the guide, which takes the form of a comic book but also includes narration from a speaker (in a cool Australian accent too).

How Google Crowd-Sourced The World Before Launching
Building a developers network for Android plays into Google's $750 million AdMob acquisition, which will become a crucial part of the company's bid to own search and display advertising on the mobile phone. Most of Google's business today is based on desktop advertising, but Yarmis believes "mobile advertising will become even more profitable than their desktop business." And that profit will come from adding location to search. The move into mobile will allow Google to bring advertisers closer to consumers wherever they go in the world. If mobile becomes the next vista for advertising, Google strategists can darn well figure out how to own that space and bring advertisers value. But it's important to note that the programming models for the iPhone and Android are similar, Yarmis says.

Scamville: The Social Gaming Ecosystem Of Hell
As you can see in the image below, nothing in the offer says that the user will be billed $10/month forever for a useless service. A typical scam: users are offered in game currency in exchange for filling out an IQ survey. Four simple questions are asked.
WhenNOTto UseSocialMedia
Management skepticism: If management doesn't believe in social media, then employees who have been told for years that public communication needs to be filtered will be hesitant to try out a new medium which requires them to speak openly. In this scenario, management needs to encourage and reward participation to make social media work. If they don't, it will fail. Strategic Vacuum: Don't do social media just to do social media. If a company doesn't know what they're trying to accomplish, then there will be nothing to measure and no way to determine success.
Who Uses Social Networks and What Are They Like? (Part 1)
The Anderson study sampled over 11,000 GreenfieldOnline panelists (an online survey community) over an 11 month period to understand social networking services' (SNS) reach and overlap among the U.S. Online Population. In May, the company surveyed an additional 5,000 panelists of which over 1,250 participated in an in-depth attitude and usage survey. They then grouped the participants into two categories: those who use social networks and those who don't. To be considered a social network user, the participant had to use one of the sites in question in the past 30 days. Of course, not everyone is devoted to one social network alone.
