91% of iPad owners have downloaded apps, over half paid for content

Posted by  Noelle Chun to Holy Kaw!

Sure, in its advent, many hoped the iPad would save the publishing industry. But how has Apple’s tablet measured up? Not well yet, due to “clunky apps, bad pricing strategies and unsustainable ad tactics,” says AdWeek. What’s more, only 4 percent of U.S. households own one of the 7.5 million iPads sold since April, making a mass market reach though the tablet unlikely at this time. In addition to examples that illuminate magazine apps’ lackluster iPad entrance thus far, AdWeek gives a thought-provoking look at the number of magazine apps downloaded so far:

Elle: 20,000 iPad downloads for debut October issue.

Wired: 100,000 iPad downloads for June; July, August, September averaged 30,300.Popular Science: iPad downloads averaged 14,034 for first four issues.Men’s Health: iPad/iPhone downloads averaged 2,967 for first four issues.

Maxim: 25,000 iPad/iPhone downloads for September issue.

iPad gives disabled boy a new taste of life [video]

Posted by  Noelle Chun to Holy Kaw!

The New York Times offers a moving glimpse into how the iPad breaks boundaries for those with disabilities—including this 7-year-old boy with a debilitating motor-neuron disease. Although even the smallest movements are a challenge for Owen Cain, the iPad became the first computerized communication device that Owen could use immediately.

The 5 stages of grief over social media by @rwang0

Posted by  Noelle Chun to Holy Kaw!

Denial! Anger! Bargaining! Acceptance! Depression! Most people know these emotions as Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’s five stages of grief. But did you know these five stages can describe an executive’s adoption of social customer relationship management? So says analyst R “Ray” Wang, who found that of 31 sales executives, support executives and COO’s almost 68 percent expressed denial, 16 percent felt anger, and more than 9.6 percent were bargaining, 3 percent felt depressed, and more than 3.2 percent came to acceptance.

But how to deal with such grief? Wang offers a description of each stage and the approach. For instance:

Stage 1: Denial (Average duration 3 to 6 months). Many executives will put up defenses and excuses when initially broached about the need for SCRM. They may have a point should no quantitative data exist or may feel as strongly as my fellow Enterprise Advocate, Dennis Howlett does aboutSCRM. Typical responses include,”Social CRM is just another XLA fad”; “None of our customers will ever use this stuff, just look at how much we invested in CRM”; “Is there really any return in these social things?”

Approach:
Proponents should share adoption trends based on SCRM Use Case #F1 – Social Customer Insights. If the analytical data provides the quantitative support on social media trends, then expect both a heightened awareness of the market realities and a rapid progression towards the second phase. In many consumer and classic B2C industries, the data will show that some significant population group is having a conversation in a social channel. The next set of questions to answer, “Can they be influenced and will they buy?” Now, if the data shows that customers, for example in classic B2B industries such as aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO), have barely adopted any social tools, then it will make sense to wait till social media adoption has hit a critical mass.

He does a good version of this Old Tune. But I can see puns about him being a "Monster", "Monster Pervert", "The worst monster ever", "twisted monster", being posted. Oh yeh "the monster mash being sung by the monster man", will be a favourite of future bloggers. SO I will get them out the way before he gets verbally and physically slaughtered.

Sign spotting at Stewart’s Sanity Rally

Posted by  Annie Colbert to Holy Kaw!

An estimated 40 million people (not really) descended on Washington D.C. Saturday afternoon to rally for sanity with Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. The Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear attracted sign-wielding Americans (and a handful of lost Canadians) from around the country in what was likely a big boost for the poster board and Sharpie industries (score one point for economic stimulation!). The signs varied from the serious to the silly to the downright confusing and probably written while drunk.

Your friendly Holy Kaw managing editor (me, if you didn’t figure that out) traveled via cramped bus to the nation’s capital to snap pictures of some of the silliest posters on sticks for your viewing pleasure.

Dead Drops: a creative techie art project

Posted by  Catherine Faas to Holy Kaw!

As part of an inventive art project titled “Dead Drops,” Aram Bartoll has embedded countless USB drives into walls, buildings, and curbs around New York City. Why? To create an anonymous, offline file-sharing network in a completely open and public space.

So, essentially, passersby can upload or download random files from the sticks. Yes, most people might fear catching a virus from a mean-spirited uploader, but the curiosity of what else might be on the drives would likely surpass that worry.

iPhoneography

Some photographers think 'iPhoneography' is a dirty word (@tristanpoyser) and some photographers make a business of evangelising it (@chasejarvis).

Whatever your thoughts are about iPhone photography - or any photography taken with a mobile phone camera, you can't get away from the fact that it is now intrinsically embedded into today's society. I studied analogue photography and have a DSLR, but for years now, the iPhone has been the only camera that I have needed. As Chase Jarvis says "The Best Camera is the One That's With You

Love it or loathe it, mobile phones capture images that would once not have been captured, it's the spur of the moment shot, the instant live reporting of news without the satellite truck waiting to upload images. My all-time favourite shot, taken and uploaded live to twitter is this one - I remember it breaking live on twitter before any of the news agencies had a chance to get their reporters on the scene.

Most of my stuff is just life-streaming and goes to twitpic, The Best Camera, Instagram or flickr (amongst others) ... here is a set of my latest uploads to flickr ...

Political Nascar: Who’s financing this year’s campaigns [infographic]

Bill Gates seeking green energy miracle

Posted by  Kate Rinsema to Holy Kaw!

What Bill Gates does always seems to be on a big scale, be it making big money or tackling big issues such as disease in Africa. His next big project, though, is seeking the miracle of creating enough green energy to bring the third world up without putting the environment six feet under.

Where the miracle comes in is that he’s not for cutting energy usage so much as cutting carbon emissions; not by a third, not by a half, but completely. When asked about what this “miracle” looks like, Gates responded:

To have the kind of reliable energy we expect, and to have it be cheaper and zero carbon, we need to pursue every available path to achieve a really big breakthrough. I certainly don’t want the government to only pick a few paths, because our probability of success is much higher if we’re pursuing many, many paths. Think about all the people who are getting up every day and working on solutions that may seem kind of delusional even though the odds against them are higher than they realize. The world needs all these people trying things out and believing in them. In IT, there were tons of dead ends—but there was enough of a success rate to have an unbelievable impact.

The environment has been – in the memorable words of Bonnie Tyler – “holding out for a hero”; will Bill Gates emerge from the phone booth to save the day?
