NAA Connections Day Two

NAA Connections Day Two 01/22/2004 03:15 AM

Hmmm... I have mixed feelings about the second day of the NAA Connections meetings... Where should I start?

I guess I'll start with the fact that the official NAA blog hasn't been updated to actually reflect anything happening at the conference on Monday. It jumped from Sunday to an advertisement for the Tuesday session. There are any number of reasons for this, but I think a big reason for this is that the whole "we'll blog the conference" was a good idea, but isn't really something traditional newspaper people understand, so they haven't committed to it. For example, they asked people to participate on the blog, but didn't actually tell anyone the URL or tell them how to add an entry... just a thought. The blog was most likely an addition thrown into the mix at the last minute without any real understanding of how to use it.

Anyways, I attended a few sessions today:

• Fighting for Recruitment Revenue - This was an hour or so presentation by Mark Mehler and Gerry Crispin, the guys behind CareerXRoads. Great presentation. Probably the most well presented stuff all day. Gerry and Mark presented the results of their latest study on Hiring Practices (which is supposed to be online here, but isn't according to Safari... actually, it looks like that's a redirect to a download of a Word Doc) [Press Release] and interjected their thoughts and answered questions from the audience throughout. Great overview of what Gerry and Mark see as 'leading indicators' in the hiring space, and some great actionable information for the recruitment space.

• Future Focus: Trends that Will Shape Online Real Estate Revenue (not online anywhere that I can find) - Very good panel. Very good.

Panelists were: Bob Birkentall, Tribune Co. Real Estate Strategy Manager, Robert Kempf, Cape Cod Times Internet Business Development Manager, and Dave Coglizer, eBay. The Moderator was Tony Lee, Editor in Chief and General Manager, The Wall Street Journal Online Network.

The panel presented the 10 trends they see shaping the future of the real estate market. They were:

Trend 1: Home Sellers Take Control - Every aspect of sales will be measured and sales channels that don't produce sales will get eliminated from the marketing and advertising budgets of home sellers. If an advertising channel's results aren't tracked and reported, it doesn't exist.
Trend 2: Expect Significant Growth in New Property Types - Disappearing boundaries will boost demand for vacation homes, recreation land, time-shares and low-management commercial properties. Ebay is already playing in this field.
Trend 3: Online Brokers will Boost Competition, Cut Commissions, and Weaken the "Realtor" Grip - Data is available to all, propelling the growth of discount brokers, For Sale By Owner sites and other low-cost marketing efforts.
Trend 4: Sellers Demand to Receive Their Own "Home Page" - (now this is a cool idea) - Newspaper sites (and every other medium for home sales) will create 'portals' for clients' homes to help speed the sale process.
Trend 5: Auctioning Homes will become a real alternative - Online auctions will solve sales issues for many types of properties and their sellers. (Dave shared with us an annecdote that "50% of all homes sold in Australia are sold through an auction" noting that it's just part of the culture there and has been for about 20 years).
Trend 6: RETS is here, while VOWs and IDX systems are already old news - With a data standard emerging, transaction information will flow easily and targeted internet marketing will blossom.
Trend 7: E-commerce replaces call centers as online up sells print - Self Service becomes the preferred online client experience and print emerges as a "premium" opportunity for the advertiser.
Trend 8: A la carte systems embrace online - From lawyers to appraisers to inspectors, the entire home sales process will be faster and cheaper on the internet.
Trend 9: The future of the MLS is fuzzy.
Trend 10: Online Real Estate dominance is still up for grabs - The jury remains out on whether newspaper websites can become the online equivalent of print for most home buyers and sellers.

• Competin g Against New Threats - What a waste of my time... but not because the content and presentation wasn't useable, mainly because of the fact that the panelists are probably 10 times more technologically savvy than the newspaper business. The panelists were Mark Pincus, co-founder and CEO of Tribe Networks Inc, Mike Downey, director of business development, Overture Services, and Dan Finnigan, executive VP and general manager for Yahoo! HotJobs.

Mark presented Tribe.net well, but I honestly think 95% of the audience had no idea what he was talking about... Mike told us that Overture wasn't a competitor to local newspapers, but rather that we were a desired partner, and Dan talked, but about what I honestly can't remember (he wouldn't speak into his microphone). My favorite quote from Mark was that "newspapers don't have a chance in local search". Whether that's true or not, I couldn't tell you, but hearing Mark say it at a newspaper conference was funny. I can tell you that newspapers on a national level don't have a chance to compete with the likes of Google or Yahoo in the local search market, but there's no telling that someone out there couldn't build a model that works in their own market. I could see NYTimes Digital putting together something that worked for Boston, or WPNI putting together a solution for D.C. You just never know, 'till it happens.

Overall, this panel wasn't very useable... The audience didn't ask any questions, and that's always a sign of disconnect between the panelists and their topics, and what the audience is looking to hear. I for one would have much rather heard about how newspapers can compete with the likes of online yellow pages (especially considering that Superpages is really expanding into the local online market again) or ways to compete against HotJobs or Monster rather than hearing about how they 'want to partner with newspapers'. The topic was "competing" and the panel didn't deliver.

I will say that it was great to meet Mark at Tribe.net, and I'm hoping we'll be able to talk again soon.

I didn't attend two sessions because they ran concurrently to the ones I did attend: Ultra-lo cal Content and Services and Ultimate Election Coverage. These two sessions also seemed to focus on content rather than on advertising, and thus I was more interested in the other meetings/presentations I attended.

I'm really looking forward to the "New Online Business Plans from NAA New Media Fellows" presentation on Tuesday and "Registration Revisited"

Sorry this blog report isn't more full-featured, but it's been a long day folks... I sure wish the NAA New Media folks were really blogging the conference, but instead they're showing that 'newspapers don't get blogs' -- something I hear all the time from my friends that know blogs...

NAA Connections Day Three

NAA Connections Day Three 01/22/2004 03:13 AM

The last day of Connections was really just more of the stuff you've read in my past two accounts of my experiences at the conference.

I attended fewer sessions on Day Three than I did during the other two days, I think mainly because I realized (or percieved) that I wasn't really getting anything out of the sessions. The two sessions I did attend on day three really were worth attending though. I attended the Buzz Sessions meetings and a one entitled Registration Revisited. I also spent time meeting with vendors, other online newspaper people from similar markets and clients. This third day was much more enjoyable and productive than the first two...

Buzz Sessions: The Buzz Sessions were five small group discussions with topics like Print to Web (taking newspaper display ads and putting them online), Creating spanish-language websites, Essential website redesign, Multimedia (and how to use it), and one other topic (that I can't remember). I sat in on two of the five little groups: Print to Web and Multimedia. Both were great little discussions. The overall thing I take away from the meeting was that newspapers are really trying to figure out how to use the distribution channel that the internet is as a way to really transform themselves from just 'printed newspaper companies' into 'content and delivery' companies. Every size and every shape of newspaper was represented in these buzz sessions and a lot of great sharing took place. On the topic of Multimedia, there are some really cool things going on out there, if you take notice... For example, when SignOnSanDiego.com was putting pictures and movies of the wild-fires that afflicted Southern California this summer... did you know that they found cell-phone camera phones the easiest and most manageable technology solution for getting that content back to the newsroom for production and posting online? Not some $20,000 or $100,000 video set-up. A bunch of stupid $200 cell-phones with cameras built into them and an army of folks to go take pictures. That ingenuity and creativity in this space really amazes me sometimes... cell-phone camera based movies... such a simple solution for web-ready video...

Registra tion Revisited: Wow! Great presentation and by far the most attended and interesting discussion throughout all of Connections. We heard from Belo Interactive, Tribune Interactive and the Arizona Republic's online folks... Belo and Tribune are truly leaders in the online registration field. AZCentral just launched 'lite registration' last September. Belo and TI have been at it for 4 and 3 years respectively. Belo and TI are just now starting to be able to monetize their registration data effectively for advertisers (and are starting to try and figure out how to use their registration to serve their users/online readers). AZCentral is also just starting to sell advertising based on their registration data. The overall feeling I get coming out of the session was that registration is coming to a newspaper site near you soon. If you're local news site doesn't require registration today, trust me when I say that they're thinking very hard about doing it. Very hard... all of them. And when newspapers do it, I can tell you that TV, radio, and almost all other news-content websites will start following. The leaders are doing it. Their readers aren't complaining at all (100 complaints in 1.6 Million registrations in Arizona isn't complaining). It's coming folks. And I dare say paid premium content online is coming next... It's already here in some local news markets.

I didn't attend the presentation on The Transformation of Advertising, though I wanted to. I heard that it was all about how TV is going to change... the person that told me that also said that 99% of the presentation had very little to do with that newspaper companies can do to affect TV advertisers... I guess I'm glad I didn't go to that one...

I met a lot of great people at Connections, but overall I'm coming away slightly disappointed. My company spent a lot of money to send me out to this conference. I invested a lot of time that could have been spent in front of clients. I expected to really get to learn a lot at this conference, but, in the words of a peer "everything we talked about was 'old-hat'". I sat next to the marketing director of a small paper in Arkansas on the way home, and she was very disappointed too. In her words the conference was "more form that substance".

Will I go to next year's Connections? Yes, most likely, but only because it's in Dallas, and I can turn it into a week-long trip to visit clients, not because I think I'll get anything out of the conference. Can I do something to make the conference better for all attending by joining the planning committees? Sure, I think I could, but do I want to? Don't know the answer to that.

Tamagotchi Connections Review

Tamagotchi Connections Review 08/17/2004 07:32 AM

Jason Piper shares his impressions of the hottest new virtual pet (okay, pretty much only virtual pet) in town: the new Tamagotchi Connection. You might not give a flying flip, but I adored my original Tamagotchi for at least the first 8 to 10 hours.

When the first Tamagotchi was introduced in the 1998 was an instant hit but just as quickly turned into a parent's nightmare. The new keychain based electronic pet would "cry" (translates to a lot of beeping) for attention non-stop for the first few hours. This for some children was unnerving and soon discredited the product. Many parents found themselves taking the child's toy to work to maintain its health and keep the pet alive to avoid the disturbing news that their kids pet had gone away.

Virtual Schools, Real Connections?

Virtual Schools, Real Connections? 01/04/2005 03:17 PM
It's not entirely clear why some people still insist that just because communication is done via a computer screen, it's somehow "less personal." Plenty of studies (and personal experiences) have shown that computers and the internet have helped many people build strong personal relationships with others, where it would have been nearly impossible without those tools. However, some people simply can't let go of the idea that it's somehow a lower quality relationship. That's prompted a teacher for an online distance learning K-12 program to write up a response to someone who claimed that students couldn't be truly inspired by a distance learning teacher. The teacher, who previously had taught in traditional schools has found the opposite to be true. Yes, there are differences. Certain aspects of an in-classroom experience cannot adequately be reproduced. But, at the same time, the online interaction can often allow for a much more personalized experience that does inspire the students. It's just not always in the same way as an in classroom experience might.
