All Marketers Are Liars

All Marketers Are Liars 04/14/2005 03:31 PM
Seth Godin sent me a a copy of his new book, All Marketers Are Liars. It's excellent. As usual, it's very provocative and typical Seth Godin. In a way, it's like Cluetrain Manifesto written by someone who speak Madison Avenuese. He writes about how people buy products because of stories and how these stories fit into their world view. The products and people behind the stories have to be authentic, but people pay for these stories. These stories sell the products, not facts about the products. Most of these stories are not completely true. It reminds me of my Moleskine notebook which has a story that I know isn't really true, but I love the story. My Macintosh is also the same. I know Apple is suing a blogger and has DRM all over iTunes, but for some reason, I'm still believe the story that they're on my side. (For now.) He also writes about the end of the advertising "message" and that you can't control the story. You don't know where your customer will touch your product/company and get their first impression. Every part of your company has to be authentic and resonate with the story.

The book reminds me of Don't Think of an Elephants by George Lakoff which is about how the Republican Party is successful at telling their story because it fits the frame / world view of their voters.

Interestingly, Seth is telling a pretty strong story that I believe doesn't fit the world view of many of the marketers he is talking to. I hope they believe his story. ;-)

He has a blog about the book called Liar's Blog for the book.

Video News Releases: Deception And
Deceit 04/21/2004 02:09 PM
Jay Rosen writes "Check out this development at PressThink. Bloggers (Campaign Desk and PressThink) press the Public Relations Society of America into taking a stand against fakery in Video News Releases, wherein a PR person claims to be a reporter when reading from a script. This is the outcome of the infamous Karen Ryan case. It's a "tech" story because, as a reader points out in comments @ PressThink, these things come with multiple voice tracks that allow for easy substitution of a TV news person's voice, and--presto--a "story" is done with virtually no effort, and it's all propaganda!" What's more interesting to me, however, is that this shows how technology is breaking down traditional barriers in all directions. With the ongoing (somewhat annoying) debate over whether or not bloggers are journalists, is it a fair question to ask if PR people are journalists as well? What's becoming clear is that, perhaps, no one is the traditional "objective" journalist - but that anyone who takes on the role of a journalist should be prepared to have their stories looked at with much more scrutiny by a crowd of people who have their own voice as well.

Video Phones Won't Catch On Because

Something of an odd prediction, suggesting that 3G video phones will never catch on because it will make it more difficult to lie about your location. I hadn't realized that so many people used their mobile phones as a way of lying about where they were. I would guess that there are plenty of other reasons why video phones might not catch on (perhaps, for the same reason that landline based video phones have never really caught on - people often feel uncomfortable knowing someone is watching them without being able to see them directly). I also wonder how many make their buying decisions based on their ability to use the technology to lie to people.

Easy Come, Easy Go: Antigua Loses To US
Over Gambling

Easy Come, Easy Go: Antigua Loses To US
Over Gambling 04/07/2005 05:39 PM
Antigua has been battling the US for some time over the US's ban on online gambling. For many years, Antigua-based online casinos have run into problems with US laws. Two years ago, they went to the WTO claiming that the US ban on online gambling was a violation of a fair trade agreement the two nations had signed. It took the WTO almost exactly one year to point out that Antig ua was probably right. Of course, that wasn't acceptable for politicians who seem to think gambling is pure evil (except, of course, when it contributes to local tax coffers) -- so, while they planned to ignore the ruling completely (we're the US, we don't follow international rulings unless we agree with them), they did file an appeal, just for fun. It turns out that appeal worked, and the WTO has changed its mind, saying that banning gambling is a "moral issue," and therefore not subject to the fair trade agreement the two nations signed. So, sorry for all you online gambling addicts in the US, but you're back to breaking the law again.

Both drives do a fine job of simplifying backup and providing external storage space. The ABSplus is a focused backup device that's easy to use, right out of the box, for backup and restoration, whereas Maxtor's cheaper and quieter drive is better for people who want extra disk space and more backup flexibility.

Virus Detection
http://link.abpi.net/l.php?20040209A2

Researchers at Purdue University have developed a miniature device sensitive enough to detect a single virus particle. The device is tiny cantilever, a diving board-like beam of silicon that naturally vibrates at a specific frequency. When a virus particle weighing about one-trillionth as much as a grain of rice lands on the cantilever, it vibrates at a different frequency. The work, funded by the National Institutes of Health, is aimed at developing advanced sensors capable of detecting airborne viruses, bacteria, and other contaminants. Such sensors will have applications in areas including environmental-health monitoring in hospitals and homeland security. The next step will be to coat a cantilever with the antibodies for a specific virus. Only those virus particles would stick to the device, making it possible to create detectors sensitive to specific pathogens.
