Qualcomm Flo TV Needs Wider Adoption, More Services - Bloomberg - 0 views

  • “If it’s only mobile TV, we’re dissatisfied, we’re not happy with it,” Bill Stone, the Flo unit’s head, said in an interview. “There are going to be a lot of revenue streams off this service.”
  • Stone says the strain on mobile-phone networks caused by ballooning demand for video and data should make Flo attractive to service providers and phone makers. Flo works on a system using airwaves that Qualcomm bought in federal auctions. Flo- enabled devices have separate radios and chips that enable them to receive the service from Qualcomm’s transmitters. “One person streaming a video takes up as much bandwidth as 100 cell phone calls,” said Stone. “Networks break down and can’t handle it. For me, whether I have one or 1 million users, it doesn’t matter.”
  • Distributing magazines with high-resolution pictures is another area where Flo can send content to mobile devices more effectively than wireless-service providers, Stone said. His network would broadcast the data to everyone at once, with only handsets that have subscriptions enabled to access the files.

Blacklight: Tango Down is $15, filled with ads, frustration - 0 views

  •  
    This new game utilizes the Massive ad platform for Xbox, but the game sucks. The relevant part for advertisers is that the article calls out the in-game ads in particular as diminishing the quality of the gaming experience. The futuristic setting of the game does not mesh well with the in-game ads. As an agency, we should think of ways to complement, not disturb, the gaming experience when launching such a campaign.

Tardigotchi: hybrid real/virtual pet | Blog | Futurismic - 0 views

  •  
    The Tamagotchi is a virtual pet that many of us are familiar with. It was wildly popular in the late 90's, and is still doing well in sales. What some of us may not be so familiar with is the tardigrade, a microscopic animal with eight legs that can stand extreme weather conditions and is the only animal known to have the ability to survive in the hard vacuum of space. Combine the two and you have a Tardigotchi- a sphere that houses a tardigrade that is fed via syringe. The Tardigotchi also features a virtual pet that displays emotion. Communicate with the Tardigotchi via e-mail or Facebook, and a lamp will engage to warm the little "water bear," as tardigrades are called. daily 7.30
