This document discusses the challenges modern marketers face in managing data from dozens of different media sources and platforms. Specifically, it notes that over 55% of online ad spending in 2010 was not properly measured or optimized, potentially being wasted. It then outlines the complex, manual process currently required for marketers to collect, analyze, report on, and share data from various ad servers, analytics tools, and other sources - a process that takes multiple days each week. Finally, it introduces the concept of "Data 2.0", describing it as an open, automated system that provides a simple, centralized place to access updated data from any source in order to better optimize spending and predict effective media placements.
