backchan.nl Nuevos medios: oportunidades sin fronteras La Banda 2 Cero Seth Godin escribió un libro hace un par de años que se llama “Meatball Sundae” donde nos habla de cómo debemos dejar de pensar en las formas convencionales de hacer negocios levantando organizaciones completamente nuevas capaces de crear nuevas realidades, servicios y productos que sean nativos de La era conectada. Muchos medios noticiosos (Análogos y Online)han estado enfocados en buscar o crear oportunidades sin tomar en cuenta que ya estamos en la era conectada, ¿cuánto esfuerzo han puesto en desarrollar estrategias y ejecutarlas en un espacio definido por fronteras, países, segmentos, productos, pensamientos de cajón? ¿Qué opinarían si les digo que las oportunidades que buscan han estado creciendo fuera de esos espacios? Quisiera plantear 4 variables que considero están en juego para el éxito de los medios noticiosos en la era conectada:

DR Special Report: The Leader of the Caribbean Pack Thrives Despite Safety Worries Caribbean CRM Central By Karina E. Cuevas The Dominican Republic continues to hold the title of the Caribbean’s call center champion, edging out rival Jamaica and earning continuing praise from major in-country providers. With over 65 call centers, it is the second industry in growth after tourism, generating 40 percent of revenue for the overall DR economy. The call center industry has created around 22,000 direct jobs and there are hopes that as many as 100,000 new jobs will be added in the next five years. Rodolfo Salazar, America’s Marketing Director for Stream, says the DR is a key part of Stream's Nearshore services strategy In 2008, $7.2 million was driven from services exports and the country attracted $2.8 million in investments. An Affinity Play“Our affinity with the United States of America as well as location and telecommunication infrastructure are benefits aside from the low costs for the industry,” says Veronica Ogando, Investment Promotions Specialist for CEI-RD.

5 of the coolest and useful Twitter applications La Banda 2 Cero Since I began my journey in this global twitter conversation I have been trying hundreds of Twitter applications, today I want to share 5 of them that will make your life easier, give you a good time or make you stand in two hands over your head J enjoy! Twitoria: this is a great web application that just by entering your Twitter username it lets you know How many friends you are really following by finding your friends that haven’t tweeted in a long time so you can give them the boot! – My personal advice: clear anyone that has been inactive in the past 2 months since Twitter statistics say that most of the twitterers that don’t get the hang of it quit after three months .

6 Items You Touch Everyday That Are Filthier Than a Toilet One person in the office gets the flu, and soon everybody in their row has it. And as paranoid as people think they are about germs these days, with their antibacterial lotions and careful hand-washing after even briefly touching their genitals, the truth is most of us still have no freaking idea where we're picking up these germs. But if you carried around a microscope everywhere you went, there are a whole lot of everyday things you'd be a lot more hesitant to rub all over your hands. The most unpleasant place most of us will visit this week is a nice, fragrant, poorly-maintained public restroom. Or it would be OK, if some of the soap wasn't also full of germs. The problem is most of these places were using refillable soap dispensers, so contamination was happening when the filth-ridden employees were doing the refilling (the fancier kind of dispensers with sealed, disposable bags inside were clean). Designed to kill. So Keep That in Mind When... Still sexy?

039;s June 2009 Trend Briefing covering FOREVERISM The INTERNET OF CARING THINGS means connected objects that serve consumers' most important needs: physical and mental wellbeing, safety, security, oversight of loved ones, and more. You're probably already familiar with the innovations that have blazed an early CARING trail. The Nest smart thermostat*, NIKE fuelband and Fitbit, for example. But now, as consumer demand and technological capacity converge, the INTERNET OF CARING THINGS will evolve in exciting new directions. Check out the examples below – divided into five categories of CARING – for a glimpse of these... * Indeed, just after we first wrote about the INTERNET OF CARING THINGS in December 2013, Google placed a USD 3.2 billion bet on it with their purchase of Nest Labs.

Seth's Blog: Malcolm is wrong I've never written those three words before, but he's never disagreed with Chris Anderson before, so there you go. Free is the name of Chris's new book, and it's going to be wildly misunderstood and widely argued about. The first argument that makes no sense is, "should we want free to be the future?" Who cares if we want it? It is. The second argument that makes no sense is, "how will this new business model support the world as we know it today?" Who cares if it does? As I see 'free', there are two forces at work: In an attention economy (like this one), marketers struggle for attention and if you don't have it, you lose. Second, in a digital economy with lots of players and lower barriers to entry, it's quite natural that the price will be lowered until it meets the incremental cost of making one more unit. Conde Nast (publisher of the Wired (Chris's magazine) and yes, the New Yorker (Malcolm's magazine)), is going to go out of business long before you get sick, never mind die.

The LinkedIn Blog Blog Archive Dreams do come true despite the layoff notice! I am an entrepreneur who was always afraid to quit my day job. I sold rock concert T-shirts in college and even after I began work in the Silicon Valley, I started selling high-end fountain pens from Realpens.com and writing articles for industry magazines. These were little more than hobbies until my first pink slip showed up, after I’d spent nearly 29 years in the industry. While still searching for a full-time job, I began the work to become a trusted adviser on my favorite topic – protecting businesses and people when something goes wrong.
