Short Takes The perfect length of an Internet video ad (viral) is 40 seconds with a maximum of two viewings while <20 = missed and >200 = annoyed Advertisers hoping to hook viewers on the Internet should create ads that contain 40 seconds of video, and make sure Web surfers are exposed to the ad twice. No more, no less. June, 2009 | Volume 12 Has Twitter become the new CNN—the emerging authoritative and immediate—news / information service for the interactive generation? News media can’t keep pace with the new world of media consumption and the insatiable appetite for information—especially when it has yet to understand the true promise and opportunity that Social Media represents. This isn’t about adapting an existing model to new, popular broadcast channels. It’s about expanding and forcing a fundamental renaissance within the news machine itself—transforming and creating how these media giants can monetize new streams and platforms . Cost to advertise during The Simpsons? Fox TV CPM=$20-40k while Hulu CPM=$60k – Homer says “well, duh….” Online viewers have to actively seek out the program they want to watch, so advertisers end up with a guaranteed audience for their commercial every time someone clicks play on Hulu or TV.com. Online programs also have an average of 37 seconds of commercials during an episode, while prime-time TV averages nine minutes of ads. http://www.contentinople.com/author.asp?section_id=603&doc_id=177205 http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/06/17/is-twitter-the-cnn-of-the-new-media-generation/ http://www.pcworld.com/article/167344/the_simpsons_worth_more_on_hulu_than_fox.html
