  • lishers have invested to target and segment audiences across the web.
  • Question 1: Who owns data?

  • Question 2: Is it morally correct for agencies to be opaque with publishers and/or clients as to how they're leveraging data?
  • Question 3: Is it OK for agencies to both buy and sell inventory to the same advertiser?
  • There's that issue, plus the question posed by the arbitrage situation itself. What's the "acceptable" margin for ad inventory if an agency acts as both buyer and seller to an advertiser? Is that situation even morally permissible?
  • We all need to be thinking about these questions. And we need to think about it more deeply than simply drawing parallels to what happens in the traditional direct marketing business or by propping up imperfect analogies that don't apply in the digital world.

PILOTed: Thoughts on the Blackboard acquisition of Wimba and Elluminate - 3 views

  • The role of Learning Management Systems has changed dramatically over the last ten years. The first higher education learning management systems were places for professors to place materials and students to submit assignments. These were different from Content Management Systems, which allowed learners to follow a learning path through a course, grading systems, which kept track of grades, enrollment systems, which allowed students to enroll in classes, student accounting systems, which tracked payments and expenses, data warehouses, which allow analysts to mine the various systems for actionable trends, and all the other myriad systems that schools use to run their academics and operations.
  • Today, in both K12 and postsecondary, there is a growing need to integrate these systems. In higher education, schools have tried to patch together brittle middleware applications to bridge the various systems.
