The Shrinking Brand - Marketing in a Small World
•
97 likes•2,712 views
Products, services, and experiences are being deconstructed into easier to digest, easier to afford bits, allowing consumers to collect even more experiences in an even shorter timeframe. Shrinking attention spans have prompted the rise of what Wired Magazine calls “snack-size media,” and the hyper-personalization of online communication has led to new formats (micro-blogs, widgets, etc.) that challenge long-held marketing conventions. This presentation proposes key principles for the effective use of micro-formats.

AI & the future of the political party - Colin Megill
For the past six years, our team has been working on an OSS tool for citizen engagement called Polis, now in use by governments and political parties around the world. Through case studies and a brief introduction to the kinds of problems in governance which may prove to be amenable to machine learning, we’ll consider possible near and far future democratic systems inspired by advances in computing.
The sharing economy
The 20th century elevated consumption to be central and critical to the economic system, occurring as a consequence of the way production and labor were organized. But by the dawn of the new century, developed societies were grappling with the challenge of creating a more humane form of consumption, driven by three major forces: lower labor demands in technological industry, erosion of the social contract, and the environmental costs of reckless consumption on increasingly scarce natural resources.

NEW RESEARCH GETS INTO THE UNDERBELLY OF THE SHARING ECONOMY
A U.S. Study by Leo Burnett Decodes What Brands Need to Know About the Future of American Entrepreneurship
CHICAGO – A new study by global advertising agency Leo Burnett, “The Sharing Economy: Where We Go From Here,” reveals the surprising and unspoken realities of the sharing economy in America and what’s truly happening in it. The research provides insights into how people perceive, and participate in, the sharing economy.
“The sharing economy is taking on a life of its own, but it is much more nuanced than we realized,” said Chief Strategy Officer Mick McCabe, Leo Burnett USA. “Our research reveals the psychology and the behaviors of sharers that can help guide brands including why people share and why they do not.”
Sharing has more texture than what’s largely reported in the media. People are chiefly motivated by practical needs, convenience and the ability to save or make money. A nominal 35 percent of people are primarily motivated to share by altruism, community and the environment.
About Humans Being
Inspired by Leo Burnett’s HumanKind philosophy, Humans Being is a thought leadership series and ongoing exploration that pieces together the story of us. It’s a study on the changing face of humanity in culture, society, emotion, values and the human condition. We explore the intersection of where cultural trends become norms and ultimately mores. Humans Being “Sharing” follows the “Relationships” and “Technology” editions that explore the cultural and technological influences on relationships and the changing role of technology in society.

The new consumer in the Networked Society
Consumption is no longer the straightforward, disproportionate exchange of the Industrial Age. The consumer in the Networked Society is more complex, more involved, and more versatile than ever before. Today we need a nuanced understanding of the consumer – someone who consumes products and services while behaving and contributing in many new ways. In the Networked Society, we see the consumer take on new roles, as user, co-creator, ennobler, enabler, producer, and activist.

OPENING CASE
The new global economy is no longer comprised of separate economies per country or region;
instead, it has become a complex grid of interconnected networks of resources. Advances in
technology have made it possible for “money, goods, data, and people to cross borders in huge
volumes and at unprecedented speed. Since 1990, trade flows have grown 1.5 times faster than
global GDP. Cross-border capital flows have expanded at three times the rate of GDP
growth.”1 Consider that now “only one in ten US dollars in circulation today is a physical note

by Cisco Systems suggest that in 2009, global data flows expanded by nearly 50 percent. In
China alone, more than 150 million new people connected to the Internet in 2009, giving that
country a digital population almost as large as the world’s biggest socialnetworking site,
Facebook.” Emerging markets—like Brazil, China, and India—are strongly impacted by this
new global grid. “The explosion of mobile networks is giving billions of people their first real
entry point into the global economy, helping them become more informed consumers,
connecting them with jobs, and providing much better access to credit and finance.”2
Consider also the impact globalization has on the business community. A growing global
information grid directs companies toward new innovations and connections to the Internet.
John Deere tractors, for example, are equipped with GPS guidance systems “to apply
fertilizers to cropland precisely. TomTom has created systems of ‘smart’ traffic lights that
improve traffic flows. Nortura, Norway’s largest food supplier, uses radio-frequency
identification (RFID) technology to trace chickens from the farm to the s.
Disruption of the old consumption logic
The Industrial Age marked one of the great transformations in human history. Mass manufacturing both enabled and required mass consumption and highly organized labor forces. The flood of people from rural societies to cities accelerated social and economic changes. For the first time in history, consumption became a leisure activity and individuals became defined by their patterns of consumption.

We now use more information in our day-to-day life than before. The volume of information available through radio, television, internet, books, newspapers, and magazines has enlarged manifold, both in developed and developing countries. Increased flows of information between parties, individuals as well as organizations, have made interactions information-intensive. The unprecedented advances in information and communication technologies (ICT) have transformed societies in both developed and developing countries in ways that were unimaginable not so long ago. The way we conduct our personal lives, the way we build and maintain interpersonal relationships, and the way we engage in production and distribution activities have undergone changes that have long-run implications for the society in general and for the economy in particular.

Aging By Design: An Overview
The 50-plus population in the United States consists of close to 100 million consumers. Between now and 2030, this demographic will expand by over 34%. Additionally, by 2030 roughly 1 in 5 Americans will be 65 years of age and older, for a total of 72 million seniors.
In general, we are living longer and with more health complications. Even so, most of us want nothing more than to remain in the company of our friends and loved ones, stay in places that are most familiar and comfortable to us, and maintain our mental and physical autonomy.
This presentation explores the transformative impact that great design and emerging technologies will have on creating sustainable, supportive, and connected communities for the aging population and those who care for them.
Understanding human motivation_in_the_age_of_connected_machines
Solving large-scale, Industrial Internet problems has the potential of creating huge cost savings, new products, and market opportunities. However, beyond the technical challenges, understanding human motivations and values underpinned by the Internet of Things is difficult.
As data collection and connectivity grow exponentially, the interface to remote storage, analytics and connected systems become an inflection point through which potential value is delivered to end users and equipment operators thus, increasing the importance and value of how we interact with connected hardware.
Examples are shown of how the Industrial Internet of Things can unlock value propositions such as increased productivity, better analysis, and business intelligence by better understanding human motivation.

Envisioning the Balance: The Dyanmic Role of Design in Entrepreneurship
What is the expanding role of design in entrepreneurship? What is the interplay between them? David Sherwin, an Interaction Design Director at frog, shares his personal take on this subject from a designer's point of view, with principles you can use to drive sustainable growth and beneficial cultural change within your businesses, as well as approaches for creating valuable new products, services and business models with your customers and communities. This talk was delivered on March 5 at Think Big Partners in Kansas City as part of Kansas City Design Week 2014.

Roberta Tassi, frog's Senior Design Researcher in Milan, shares her thoughts on system thinking for large scale impact.
SXSW: Designing Smart Objects for Emotional People
Wearable technology, smart meters, and networked devices have generated an environment of abundant digital chatter. It’s now socially acceptable to compete with your FuelBand, send a text to your thermostat, and argue with Siri. Our eagerness to communicate with objects as we would a friend points to a new criterion for designing intelligent products. We want our technology to be smart, but also deeply personal. This presentation outlines the opportunities and risks associated with designing smart objects for emotional people. Through stories of emerging products and experimental research endeavors, it highlights the fine line designers must walk between enhancing the emotional intelligence of individuals, and replacing it.
frog POV: Now That Data is Everything
Data is the fuel of the connected world, and aspects like value, trust, transparency and ultimately ownership have been a continuous source for debate. As our technical capabilities and our comfort with and within the connected world evolves, so does the conversation about our habits and practices around customer data. As a product strategy and design company that has been leading the industry for more than four decades, I believe that frog is in a good position to reflect forward.
Tech Trends 2014
frogs from around the world predict the 15 most significant technology trends you will see in 2014. Check out the list and cast your votes on what you think is Likely or Not Likely: http://fro.gd/1ksg2iS
Data in the city
“The modern city is becoming a pointer system, the new URL, for tomorrow’s hybrid digital–physical environment. Today's Facebook will be complemented by tomorrow's Placebook. Explosive innovation and adoption of computing, mobile devices, and rich sources of data are changing the cities in which we live, work, and play. It's about us, and how computing in the context of our cities is changing how we live. A digital landscape overlays our physical world and is expanding to offer ever-richer experiences that complement, and in emerging cases, replace the physical experience. In the meta–cities of the future, computing isn't just with us; it surrounds us, and it uses the context of our environment to empower us in more natural, yet powerful ways.”
Is This Progress? More Meaning in Our Digital Life
VP of Creative Paul Pugh moderated the panel "Is This Progress? More Meaning in Our Digital Life" at SXSW Interactive 2013.
IT advances have created a mass transformation comparable to the Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution. As we use digital tools to create new connections and experiences, what is the impact on our analog realities? Consider:
1. The collective memory of our online activities far exceeds our human capacity to remember; we struggle with information overload and privacy concerns instead of treasuring our digital legacy.
2. News is omnipresent yet more compartmentalized than ever, as we invent siloes to absorb the deluge of information. We traded newspapers for online news feeds, but are we better informed, or more myopic?
3. Both human relationships and physical artifacts are decamping for the cloud. Is a Facebook friend truly nurturing? Is digital music as interesting as a hard-earned vinyl collection?
Teaching Old Markets New Tricks
frog Interaction Designer Jennifer Dunnam explores the farmers’ market, technology, and the future urban environment. Presented at the Food, the City, and Innovation Conference in Austin, Texas.
Design Is Hacking How We Learn
The next big disruption in lifelong learning will be by design. We are innately trained and poised to have a global impact on how other people can survive and thrive, whether they are designers or not. In this talk from AIGA Seattle's Into the Woods 2012 conference, David Sherwin points out opportunities and shares tools he's gathered to encourage people to be better critical thinkers and problem solvers, using the activity areas of the Collective Action Toolkit as a frame (which at the time was still a work in progress).
2013 Tech Trends
Yes, it’s already that transitional time when our current year ends and another begins, and today and tomorrow are quickly changing hands. Rather than look back at significant trends of the past 366 days (2012 was a leap year, remember?), we asked a wide variety of technologists, designers, and strategists across frog’s studios around the world to take a look to the future. The near future, that is. “Near” in that 2013 is not only upon us, but also “near” in that these technologies are highly feasible, commercially viable, and are bubbling up to the surface of the global zeitgeist. We believe you’ll be hearing a lot more about these trends within the next 12 months, and possibly be experiencing them in some form, too.
Here's our second annual list of Tech Trend predictions for the coming year. There are 20 individual forecasts and, new for 2013, we've also related each prediction to larger waves in business, culture, and innovation.

how to sell pi coins effectively (from 50 - 100k pi)
Anywhere in the world, including Africa, America, and Europe, you can sell Pi Network Coins online and receive cash through online payment options.
Pi has not yet been launched on any exchange because we are currently using the confined Mainnet. The planned launch date for Pi is June 28, 2026.
Reselling to investors who want to hold until the mainnet launch in 2026 is currently the sole way to sell.
Consequently, right now. All you need to do is select the right pi network provider.

what is the future of Pi Network currency.
The future of the Pi cryptocurrency is uncertain, and its success will depend on several factors. Pi is a relatively new cryptocurrency that aims to be user-friendly and accessible to a wide audience. Here are a few key considerations for its future:
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram if u want to sell PI COINS.
1. Mainnet Launch: As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Pi was still in the testnet phase. Its success will depend on a successful transition to a mainnet, where actual transactions can take place.
2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.
