"The medium is the message" is a phrase coined by Marshall McLuhan meaning that the form of a medium embeds itself in the message, creating a symbiotic relationship by which the medium influences how the message is perceived.The phrase was introduced in his most widely known book, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man, published in 1964.[1] McLuhan proposes that a medium itself, not the content it carries, should be the focus of study. He said that a medium affects the society in which it plays a role not only by the content delivered over the medium, but also by the characteristics of the medium itself.McLuhan frequently punned on the word "message", changing it to "mass age", "mess age", and "massage"; a later book, The Medium Is the Massage was originally to be titled The Medium is the Message, but McLuhan preferred the new title, which is said to have been a printing error.

VSNL starts India's first Internet service todayAugust 14, 1995: India's overseas communications monopoly, Videsh Sanchar Nigam Limited (VSNL) today launched India's first full Internet service for public access. The Gateway Internet Access Service (GIAS) was launched one week after the deadline Chairman and Managing Director B K Syngal had given The Indian Techonomist, but before India's August 15th Independence Day, a favourite for public-sector inaugurations.VSNL stated that while the GIAS will be available immediately from Bombay, Delhi, Calcutta and Madras, it will be directly connected to Pune and Bangalore "shortly". Users from other locations can connect through the Department of Telecommunications' I-NET, an X.25 network accessed through leased lines or at a concessional dial-up rate from almost anywhere.The connection between VSNL and MCI in the US starts with "multiple 64kbps" links, which will "grow into T1 or E1 by the end of the year."The pricing structure and other information is the same as previously believed - $160 for 250 hours for individuals (shell accounts); about $500 for institutional dial-up SLIP/PPP accounts; much more for leased lines, and a ridiculous $16 for 250 hours for "students", to be made available later this year. http://dxm.org/techonomist/news/vsnlnow.htmlhttp://www.bnetindia.com/html/internet_in_india.htm

Globalization and BPO boomThe World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century is an international bestselling book by Thomas Friedman that analyzes globalization, primarily in the early 21st century. The title is a metaphor for viewing the world as a level playing field in terms of commerce, where all competitors have an equal opportunity. As the first edition cover illustration indicates, the title also alludes to the perceptual shift required for countries, companies and individuals to remain competitive in a global market where historical and geographical divisions are becoming increasingly irrelevant.Friedman himself is a strong advocate of these changes, calling himself a "free-trader" and a "compassionate flatist," and he criticizes societies that resist these changes. He emphasizes the inevitability of a rapid pace of change and the extent to which emerging abilities of individuals and developing countries are creating many pressures on businesses and individuals in the United States; he has special advice for Americans and for the developing world (but says almost nothing about Europe). Friedman's is a popular work based on much personal research, travel, conversation, and reflection. In his characteristic style, he combines in The World Is Flat conceptual analysis accessible to a broad public with personal anecdotes and opinions. The book was first released in 2005, was later released as an "updated and expanded" edition in 2006, and yet again released with additional updates in 2007 as "further updated and expanded: Release 3.0." The title was derived from a statement by NandanNilekani, the former CEO of Infosys. The World is Flat won the inaugural Financial Times and Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year Award in 2005.In his book, The World is Flat, Friedman recounts a journey to Bangalore, India, when he realized globalization has changed core economic concepts.[1] In his opinion, this flattening is a product of a convergence of personal computer with fiber-optic micro cable with the rise of work flow software. He termed this period as Globalization 3.0, differentiating this period from the previous Globalization 1.0 (in which countries and governments were the main protagonists) and the Globalization 2.0 (in which multinational companies led the way in driving global integration).Friedman recounts many examples of companies based in India and China that, by providing labor from typists and call center operators to accountants and computer programmers, have become integral parts of complex global supply chains for companies such as Dell, AOL, and Microsoft. Friedman's Dell Theory of Conflict Prevention is discussed in the book's penultimate chapter.Friedman repeatedly uses lists as an organizational device to communicate key concepts, usually numbered, and often with a provocative label. Two example lists are the ten forces that flattened the world, and three points of convergence.

Along with their designated agency Brandcomm, we came up with a unique idea to launch their corporate identity to their most targeted user group the Youth. We covered an entire lane of the bowling alley using 6 projectors and 6 sensors to track movement and ran a customized application. The users would roll the bowling ball on the track to break the line of pins. The ball was followed with a burning fire till it reached the pins. Upon hitting the pins, it rolled back the newly designed Airtel Logo back to the start line. Youngsters could instantly relate to their favorite telecom service and Airtel could launch their logo with high recallImpact: The launch was in line with the vibrant promotions Airtel offers to its consumers. Without losing the previous identity, the target audience could still relate the new logo with Airtel at ease.

INDIAN MEDIA & ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY TO ACHIEVE GROWTH OF 11.8% IN 2013 AND TOUCH INR 917 BILLION
Infographic: The Internet of ThingsThese days, it's hard to escape the Internet. It seems like everything from your espresso maker to your eyeglasses are connected to the Web.While there's been a lot of discussion about whether the Internet makes us dumb, a new infographic from SAP explores how companies and municipalities deploying so-called smart technologies can improve our lives rather than turn us into bleary-eyed dummies.The use of machine-to-machine (M2M) technology is bringing "The Internet of Things" alive, SAP said. But while M2M may only conjure up thoughts of buzzing servers in a cavernous room, it has many real-world applications that affect your everyday life, from the connected home to the connected city."The Internet of Things" includes everything from smartphone apps that control your home's lights and temperature from afar to real-time analytics that help ease traffic congestion and city parking woes, according to SAP.In a survey provided by SAP, 85 percent of IT decision makers (ITDMs) think that M2M is a natural technological evolution and will advance the "consumerization of IT" trend. Eighty-two percent think that M2M interaction enables businesses to respond to real-world events and 89 percent think the availability of LTE and 4G will be crucial to M2M growth. Sixty-five percent of ITDMs think increased workforce mobility is the biggest opportunity for M2M, while another 65 percent think the major challenge in M2M is managing and analyzing the real-time data."Soon, people will interact with devices that in turn interact with data to deliver personalized products and services directly to the customer in real time," said Sanjay Poonen, head of SAP's mobile division.By year's end, SAP said, mobile devices will outnumber the human population, data volume will reach 4 billion terabytes, and 90 percent of consumer-connected devices will have access to some personal cloud. SAP estimated that by the end of 2020, there will be 24 billion connected devices and by 2015, 35 percent of mid-to-large organizations will adopt in-memory computing. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2418471,00.asp

Hypertargeting refers to the ability to deliver advertising content to specific interest-based segments in a network. MySpace coined the term in November 2007[1] with the launch of their SelfServe advertising solution (now called myAds[2]), described on their site as "enabling online marketers to tap into self-expressed user information to target campaigns like never before."Hypertaging is also the ability on social network sites to target ads based on very specific criteria. This is an important step towards precision performance marketing.The first MySpace HyperTarget release offered advertisers the ability to direct their ads to 10 categories self-identified by users in their profiles including music, sports, and movies. In July 2007 the targeting options expanded to 100 subcategories. Rather than simply targeting movie lovers, for example, advertisers could send ads based on the preferred genres like horror, romance, or comedy. By January 2010 MySpace HyperTarget involved 5 algorithms across 1,000 segments.According to an article by Harry Gold in online publisher ClickZ,[3] the general field of hypertageting draws information from 3 sources:Registration - basic data gathered when users register for site access (e.g. age, sex, location)Profile - detailed content completed by active users (e.g. favorite movies, activities, brands)Behavioral history - data gathered from online activities like sites visited, purchases made, groups joined, etc.Facebook, a popular social network, offers an ad targeting service through their Social Ads platform. Ads can be hypertargeted to users based on keywords from their profiles, pages they're fans of, events they responded to, or applications used. Some of these examples involve the use of behavioral targeting.By 2009 hypertargeting became an accepted industry term. In 2010 the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), the world's largest consumer technology tradeshow, dedicated three sessions to the topic:Advertising Analytics and Social Media, Search, Video Search and HyperTargeting [4]Hypertargeting: Ad Networks, Ad Serving and Ad Targeting [5]HyperTargeting and HyperSelecting: Advertising, Search, Content and Aggregation [6]* From the advertising perspective, the emergence of targeted advertising to ensure greater ROI and less wastage.
It’s celebration times in Indian media as The Times of India completes 175 years of existence. The exercise was kicked off in right earnest last fortnight with much fanfare. We posed a few questions on the celebrations to Rahul Kansal, Executive President of BCCL. And since it was MrKansal who was giving us a low-down, we also spoken on branding issues and asked him for finer details… beyond what’s already carried in the announcements. A veteran adman (Deputy Managing, Leo Burnett – 2000-02; Exec Director, Mudra 1994-2000 and Exec Director, Ogilvy 1989-94), MrKansal has been with BCCL since 2007, initially as CMO and since last year as Exec President.Excerpts from an interaction of MrKansal with PradyumanMaheshwari: Q. One still remembers the 150 years sesquicentennial celebrations of The Times of India. What can one expect from the 175 years’ celebration? We’ve been seeing a celebration in the paper in the form of culling the best of the last 175 years…. Could you share a few specifics? Well, we’ve started with celebrating India’s journey over the past 175 years, and of giving readers a glimpse of how we’ve helped lead the change in the country over this period. We’re doing daily editorial spreads mining the best material from our archives and presenting them in a contemporary context. We’re also doing seven books on various themes, covering the defining moments over the past 175 years in sports, cinema, society and politics. The books are being anchored by acclaimed journalists and authors like BachiKarkaria, Jug Suraiya, Santosh Desai, BoriaMajumdar, Sandipan Deb and others. The first, Sporting Times, authored by Boria is being launched on May 23 in Mumbai, by some of India’s sporting luminaries like Sachin, AbhinavBindra and Mary Kom. In a few weeks from now we’ll get into the heart of the 175 years’ celebration: a powerful activation programme called ‘I Lead India’. Being launched on a scale bigger than any of our earlier such interventions, the programme is basically an exhortation to India’s youth to stop whining about all that’s going wrong in our society, and instead start doing something about it. It asks our youth to say: Enough of pointing fingers, of blaming the ‘system’, of wanting them to change. I must be the change I wish to see in the world. I (will) Lead India. ‘I Lead India’ will peak in early November. This will be followed by a round of celebrations covering 25-odd cities, including, hopefully, some marquee programmes in some of the larger cities.See more at: http://www.mxmindia.com/2013/05/inside-the-times-175-years-celebrations/#sthash.B2LD0CMa.dpuf
