#trend watching, five digital trends to watch for 2009
Trend Watching ::
Steve Rubel of Edelman Digital has nominated five digital trends for 2009.
They are:
Satisfaction Guaranteed :: Customer care and PR are blending as consumers use social media to demand service
Media Reforestation :: The media is in a constant state of reinvention as it transitions from atoms to bits
Less is the New More :: Overload takes its toll. Gorging on media is out. Selective ignorance and friends as filters are in
Corporate All-Stars :: Workers flock to social media to build their personal brands, yet offer employers an effective and credible way to market in the downturn
The Power of Pull :: Where push once ruled, it’s now equally important to create digital content that people discover through search
The article and research paper is published on his blog.

#innovation, Phonebloks solving first world problems
I like this – a novel approach to solving the First World problem of recycling nearly new tech gadgetry.
In this instance, it is how we could upgrade our mobile phones using a modular approach to manufacture.
The argument is convincing, though the approach is basic – but does raise interesting questions.
