Mad Libs make a comeback. To help with online form completion. | If you're like me, and it's been awhile since you were 12 and sitting in the backseat of your parents' car, chances are you haven't thought about Mad Libs for awhile. But there are a few people who have been implementing Mad Libs-style forms on their websites. And early results are showing that in addition to bringing back childhood memories, they are also effective. Luke Wroblewski, chief design architect at Yahoo! Vast and Kelley Blue Book are among the sites that now employ this sort of form. According to Wroblewski: "Most of the input fields have stayed the same but the "comments" text area has been replaced by a "personalize this message link" and the phone number set of three input fields has been replaced a single flexible input. It makes sense that it would. Even if a task isn't particularly difficult, any simplification can encourage completion — especially if it presents the same number of options as before.

Obviously, it's probably not a good idea to hold your breath given how long it has taken Twitter to monetize. While Twitter ads will certainly receive a lot of attention, it is likely that the early days will offer the typical Gold Rush opportunities for those who are savvy. SEM providers/resellers. Needless to say, Twitter ad opportunities will depend in large part on how Twitter structures its offering. Photo credit: carrotcreative via Flickr.

apophenia Like everyone who cares about Crisis Text Line and the people we serve, I have spent the last few days reflecting on recent critiques about the organization’s practices. Having spent my career thinking about and grappling with tech ethics and privacy issues, I knew that – had I not been privy to the details and context that I know – I would be outraged by what folks heard this weekend. I would be doing what many of my friends and colleagues are doing, voicing anger and disgust. But as a founding board member of Crisis Text Line, who served as board chair from June 2020 until the beginning of January 2021, I also have additional information that shaped how I thought about these matters and informed my actions and votes over the last eight years. As a director, I am currently working with others on the board and in the organization to chart a path forward. Texters come to us in their darkest moments. First: Why data?
