  • Not-So-Easy Listening: You’ve surely read this: “Sufjan Stevens Fans Must Visit a Brooklyn Man to Listen to Folkie’s Tune.” Says guy: “It brings people togethe [rather than] being lost among 14,000 iTunes.”
  • Status and Attention: This has to be relevant to all social media: “Thesis: People contribute more to content sites like YouTube when they receive positive attention, and a lack of attention causes people to uploading less content and, in some cases, to stop contributing altogether.”
  • PSFK: Not into Kindle: PIers Fawkes kicks Amazon’s device in the teeth.
  • Craft Blogging: Craftypod podcast gives some really practical and thoughtful blogging advice. Aimed at the crafter, but probably of use to anybody who uses a blog as part of any kind of business enterprise (or creative enterprise). If I ever started blogging, I’d take this advice.
  • The Music Tee: The T-shirt as music-distribution method. “Each shirt comes with a hang tag printed with a URL and a unique code; each code will allow the owner of the shirt to download one copy of each of the tracks printed on the shirt from the Music Tee Room on LnA’s website.”
  • Star Trek Communicator App: “Trillium mesh cover flips out and animates open with a flick of the wrist, exposing the communicator interface. The opening action is accompanied by the familiar ‘chirping’ sound.” Etc.
  • Links compiled via delicious, and repurposed here with plug-in Postalicious.

Further diversion may be found at MKTG Tumblr, and the Consumed Facebook page.
