Creative industries
The creative industries refers to a range of economic activities which are concerned with the generation or exploitation of knowledge and information. They may variously also be referred to as the cultural industries (especially in Europe (Hesmondhalgh 2002, p. 14)) or the creative economy (Howkins 2001), and most recently they have been denominated as the Orange Economy in Latin America and the Caribbean (Buitrago & Duque 2013). Howkins' creative economy comprises advertising, architecture, art, crafts, design, fashion, film, music, performing arts, publishing, R&D, software, toys and games, TV and radio, and video games (Howkins 2001, pp. 88–117). Some scholars consider that education industry, including public and private services, is forming a part of creative industry.[1] There remain, therefore, different definitions of the sector (Hesmondhalgh 2002, p. 12)(DCMS 2006).Yet so far Howkins has not been internationally recognized.

Crowdsourcing and the new marketing Cloud Labor, Crowd Creativity Crowdsourcing is clearly not going away. Any company that believes it can operate with a closed-walls philosophy is missing the point of social business. The crowd, or groups external to the firm, provide interesting, sometimes path-breaking, sometimes huge numbers of ideas, insights and solutions. Still, there are a couple of questions niggling away at the back of my mind. The first is how do we improve crowdsourcing? The second question is where does it lead us to?

This application is a division of copending application Ser. No. 11/613,891, filed Dec. 20, 2006 (published as US20070162761), which claims priority benefit to provisional application 60/753,652, filed Dec. 23, 2005.

How to add a Subscribe Button to your Facebook Profile
You can add the Subscribe button to your own Facebook personal profile to let non-friends see your public updates on Facebook. Like most other Facebook users, I have a public page where I share updates from my blog and a personal profile which is semi-private and I primarily use it for connecting with my offline friends and family members. Most of the stuff that I share on my personal Facebook profile – like pictures of kids, songs, cooking recipes, etc. – would be extremely boring to the external world and, fortunately, they don’t get to see any of that. Having said that, I occasionally post updates on my personal profile page that could be of interest to a wider audience and I would therefore be more than happy if people – who are not my “friends” on Facebook – can see or comment on them. How can you do that without making your profile public?
