Busy busy busy

We're heading in to the holiday season with several big projects under way that are launching early next year: Sundance Channel, Logitech, and Clear. We're working with some great agencies on the work and are excited to show it off after we get through the holidays.

The plan is to work hard, then take a break for family, friends, and eggnog. Should be a fun few weeks!

Happy Thanksgiving!

FeedMagnet would like to wish you and your loved ones a safe and grateful Thanksgiving holiday.

We created a live feed (no longer active) for the holidays, plotting Thanksgiving geo-tweets on a Google Map, displaying all mentions of the phrase "Happy Thanksgiving" on the right, and searching for food and holiday related photos at the bottom! Please post your photos and well wishes to see if they appear...

Happy Eating!

Social Allure and the Packed Café

Testimonials are one of the most powerful forms of marketing. People want the things they see other people talking about. But testimonials can feel inauthentic when done poorly.

Enter social media. People talk about brands all the time on Twitter, Facebook, and other social sites. And these unsolicited testimonials are verifiably real, authentic, and incredibly persuasive.

Thankfulness for creative people

We're in New York this week meeting with agencies, customers, and prospects - and we've been having a blast. I realized today that what makes our job so much fun are all the amazing creative people we get to interact with.
