Google has been rolling out lots of interesting products the last little while.  I've posted some videos of them below. 

Google Goggles - Visual Search

Google just acquired AdMob, a mobile advertising network for $750 Million.  Obviously with this type of investment Google is expecting some big returns from the mobile ad market.

How Best Buy talks and listens to its customers.  Very interesting video on how the company is embracing new technology to communicate. 

Facebook would now be considered the 4th largest country in the world (by population, not land mass...yes that was a lame attempt at a joke). At 300 million users and five years old the website has begun to make money which means they should be around for a while yet.

This is just a little video I made up a little while ago and never got around to posting it on the blog. Knowing how to forward a domain is a very simple procedure that you can use to help consumers find your site. 

Just a few screenshots that I found interesting today...

Facebook blue image popped up in the search results as part of a Google Ad.  First time I have seen this.  Could this be a start of more visual search results for Google?

Adwords Fail - After clicking an Adword ad I was sent to this website that is under construction.  Don't think that's going to get you much business...

Going to have a lot of posts on Facebook this week.  I just noticed that they are changing the look of the Facebook pages as well as the Facebook homepage. Click links for full description of changes.

You may or may not have noticed some changes made to Top Search Result's website.  My goal is to share with you what I changed on www.topsearchresult.ca and hopefully it will help you update your site too.  I could definitely go into more detail for why each change is important but kept it brief for reading enjoyment.

These are some great videos to get you started on your online marketing journey.

I can't take credit for these great videos.  They were made by Common Craft, check out their Youtube Channel.

These are some great videos "In Plain English" that will help explain various tech terms. I just sifted through their library and picked out the ones that are most relevent to online marketing/presence.

Blogs in Plain English

Social network marketing is increasingly becoming a main source of traffic for websites for those who know how to leverage them.

Take a look at this article "The Next Generation of Internet Leads". It explains how traditional online marketing is changing (even before some know how to do that).
