Mobile web and Drupal | Spy Journal 3.0 - 1 views

  • use 3rd party Drupal modules to “mobilise” your site. There is a whole Drupal group discussing this at http://groups.drupal.org/mobile.
  • optimise your main site so that it is mobile friendly
  • write specific code into a website that determines the users entry point – e.g. via cable or DSL vs. mobile. If mobile than the pages automatically redirect to a “mobile version” of the website

  • Just because you can do it doesn’t mean you should. If no one is going to go to your website on their mobile phone then don’t bother.
  • Mobile web is almost irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, though it is growing. Unless a clients business model specifically expects mobile web usage – e.g. Google search does – than it is probably an expensive exercise for very little benefit.
  • opera users account for 2.3% of all traffic (http://www.w3schools.com/Browsers/browsers_stats.asp), and the colour depth statistics suggest that mobile users are between 1 and 4 % all up.

  • Forum participants were significantly more likely to take part in all the activities queried. Notably: 65% of forum contributors give advice offline based on information found online, compared with 35% of noncontributors. 66% of forum contributors post online ratings and reviews, compared with 16.8% of noncontributors. 43.6% of forum contributors share links to articles and reviews, versus 12% of noncontributors. 20.6% of forum contributors publish a blog, compared with 2.1% of noncontributors.

Using Social Media Strategically - eMarketer - 0 views

  •  
    "Gaining maturity means improving the ability to tie objectives to specific metrics. Marketers in the strategic phase are significantly more likely than those in earlier phases of the process to measure their success across all objectives. An increase in Website traffic was the No. 1 objective targeted and measured by all marketers." "Defining specific objectives for a social marketing initiative is only half the battle. The other half is aligning those objectives with corresponding metrics," according to the report. "This alignment is important because it enables an organization to measure its progress in achieving the objectives and proving ROI." MarketingSherpa found that retail and e-commerce marketers were more likely than any other industry to be increasing their social media marketing budgets next year, followed by publishing and media. Education and healthcare lagged, with less than one-half of marketers in the industry planning to up social media spending in 2010. Most social marketing dollars (60%) next year will go toward staff salaries for activities such as blogging, content development and monitoring of social channels. Another two-fifths will be spent on outside help from agencies, consultancies and service providers.

  • he doesn’t understand this feeling, compelling as it is. All that he understands is that he has been slowed down.
  • a deliberate effort to be still and know God. A deliberate slowing down, quieting the mind. But in May’s experience, this slowing is not of his own doing. He is slowed by a Power. And it is in this slowing that May comes face to face with the Divine.
