One thing causing concern for us in the digital world over the next coming months is the new EU Cookie Law. There is a lot of confusion surrounding it and many are asking questions like what should we be doing? Will my site be illegal if we don't comply?

Happy Friday All!

This week the SEM team here at Organic Development have been pretty busy attending Likeminds U, an intensive social media strategy course running over 6 full days for the next 3 months. The course has included fantastic tutorials from world class experts and hands on workshops.

I have sifted through the pages and pages of notes I made and thought I would share with you some of the great titbits we learnt and some of the highly entertaining case studies where social media marketing has worked better than ever expected.

Pulse is the anti-newspaper; a news aggregation creation of two youngster graduates. You could go to the loo, fire up the content grids, which are like prettier, pictorial RSS feeds and within seconds your fingers have swiped 20 or so grids of news from multiple sources and maybe delved into a few.

Digital Post

The Digital Post straddles authentic, newspaper design and modern innovation. Its ability to aggregate multiple sources attracts the ‘nomadic’ reader concerned with varied and mass content at speed over brand loyalty. It exploits the inability of print to provide user-chosen content and lets the reader pioneer the search from neatly divided categories. This is the major superiority of digital, malleable content over newspapers.
