Six Links Worthy Of Your Attention #418

Is there one link, story, picture or thought that you saw online this week that you think somebody you know must see?


My friends: Alistair Croll (Solve for InterestingTilt the WindmillHBS, chair of StrataStartupfestPandemonio, and ResolveTO, Author of Lean Analytics and some other books), Hugh McGuire (PressBooks, LibriVox, iambik and co-author of Book: A Futurist's Manifesto) and I decided that every week the three of us are going to share one link for one another (for a total of six links) that each individual feels the other person "must see".


Check out these six links that we're recommending to one another: 



Mark Ritson: How 'influencers' made my arse a work of art - Marketing Week . "Mitch has probably seen this already, so I'm aiming it at Hugh. Not just a takedown of influencer marketing, but an indictment--WITH MATH--that has the author troll them perfectly in a sting operation with his own (photographically altered) butt. Ouch." (Alistair for Hugh).
Eminem's ASL interpreter stole the show at Firefly - Mashable . "This makes me happy. I first saw a video slide by on Twitter, and dug in. Turns out lots of artists are putting sign language onstage next to them, and making an effort to include fans of all kinds. But Holly Maniatty takes it to a whole new level alongside Eminem. Good trend; fun to watch. She's even had her signing mistaken for dancing." (Alistair for Mitch).
A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things review - how capitalism works - The Guardian . "Worth a read for the opening sentence alone." (Hugh for Alistair).
Dead Kennedys' Jello Biafra interviewed during his 1987 obscenity trial - Boing Boing . "This video harks back to a time where we seemed to debate political issues rather than shout them. Maybe this is just nostalgia. It's also fun to harken back to my youth, seeing Erica Ehm and other MuchMusic (Canada's MTV) hosts from the 80s with their haircuts." (Hugh for Mitch).
Fortnite made $318 million in May -- almost $100 million more than any free-to-play game has made in a month - Business Insider . "Yes... everybody who likes video games on the planet is playing and/or talking about Fortnite. It's a sensation. Still, check out the money behind it. What a staggering display of magnitude. I'm not the first person to say this, but as we look for opening weekends on films or how a television show did in the ratings, we may want to (really) amp up our attention to the video game space. Wowza!" (Mitch for Alistair).
Disney Imagineering has created autonomous robot stunt doubles - TechCrunch . "I had to read and re-read that headline more than once to really let it sink in. Go ahead... do it. This is pretty mind-blowing in a Westworld kind of way: 'autonomous, self-correcting aerial performers that make on-the-go corrections to nail high-flying stunts every time. Basically robotic stuntpeople, hence the name.' Crazy times. Watch the video below." (Mitch for Hugh).

Evolving Masculinity In Marketing While Dealing With The Elephant In The Room

How does marketing to men change in world where the role of the male has evolved so dramatically?


It's a difficult concept to speak about, especially as the #MeToo movement continues to roll on (and, especially, because I am a middle-aged white male living in North America who has a ton of privilege). With that, marketers have always had a very specific role: Make a brand's product or service interesting to a specific market. It's interesting to think about just how much our world has changed when it comes to marketing to genders - and what, exactly, this all means to marketers today. This is the perfect week to think about it, considering that the annual Cannes Lions Festival is wrapping up in France. These topics were front and center... or maybe not as central as some had hoped. 


Interested in hearing more? You may want to listen to this: BeanCast #500 - Look How Far We've Come.


This week, I discussed these topics (and more) along with Joseph Jaffe (Super Advisor at The Innovation Scout), Jonathan Sackett (President at Allscope) and host Bob Knorpp on the very excellent BeanCast Podcast (which I've been fortunate to be a guest on in the past). This also happens to be the 500th episode of the BeanCast. A hearty congrats to Bob for pulling together one of the best podcasts on the marketing, communications and advertising space in the world!


Take a listen and jump into the fray...

Six Links Worthy Of Your Attention #417

Is there one link, story, picture or thought that you saw online this week that you think somebody you know must see?


My friends: Alistair Croll (Solve for InterestingTilt the WindmillHBS, chair of StrataStartupfestPandemonio, and ResolveTO, Author of Lean Analytics and some other books), Hugh McGuire (PressBooks, LibriVox, iambik and co-author of Book: A Futurist's Manifesto) and I decided that every week the three of us are going to share one link for one another (for a total of six links) that each individual feels the other person "must see".


Check out these six links that we're recommending to one another: 



Larry David and the Game Theory of Anonymous Donations - Nautilus . "It feels like in the last few years we got much smarter about manipulation, behavioural economics, and psychology. Maybe because of the sharing of 'stupid human tricks' online, or maybe because we can run tests at scale with the Internet. Anyway -- it means you can produce different results with social settings. Want to run a charity auction? Anonymity is game theory." (Alistair for Hugh).
The bizarre tale of the flat-Earth convention that fell apart - cnet . "I love me some Science Denier Schadenfreude. Extra points if it's about conferences. And in this case, you have to ask: Why did the organizers plan it for Australia? Isn't that perilously close to the edge? ;-) More importantly: Why are we seeing this sort of thing? One argument is that denying science and progress is a way to slow down the pace of change in one's personal sphere. Or, in this case, platter." (Alistair for Mitch).
. "First thing to know is that there is a blog called, AI Weirdness, which should be expected, but makes me happy nonetheless. Second important fact is that someone trained a neural network on a dataset of roller derby names, and got it to generate its own list of roller derby names. Third fact is that you can read about all this at the link above." (Hugh for Alistair).
Roller derby - Wikipedia . "Did you know that the American newspaper man/humorist Damon Runyon is the co-inventor of roller derby? Do you even know what roller derby is? Did you know that there is a Roller Derby league in Montreal and they regularly have matches a five minute walk from my office? (Next match: June 28)." (Hugh for Mitch). 
The Dangers of Distracted Parenting - The Atlantic . "I'll often lament when I see small children in the park sitting around on a phone or tablet. They're playing games... or watching videos... in a park... filled with other kids. What's wrong with this world? Then, I'll take a peak to see if any emails need tending to. What's worse for humanity? Kids constantly using screens or parenting your kids while you're constantly on a screen? Hmmm...." (Mitch for Alistair).
Man 1, machine 1: landmark debate between AI and humans ends in draw - The Guardian . "I never know what to make of artificial intelligence. Is it happening now and changing the world, or does it just suck at creating names for a Roller Derby team (mind you, Fun Stabs and Hey Pain, are great names!). Well, here's a counter: AI is debating humans and winning... or drawing a tie. I could argue that if AI can tie a human being in a debate, it actually won. Still... kneel before your AI overlords. They are coming." (Mitch for Hugh).

Scooter (or Bird) Your Way To Work And More On This Week's CTRL ALT Delete Segment On CHOM 97.7 FM

Every Monday morning at 7:10 am, I am a guest contributor on CHOM 97.7 FM radio out of Montreal (home base). It's not a long segment - about 10 minutes every week - about everything that is happening in the world of technology and digital media. The good folks at CHOM 97.7 FM are posting these segments weekly on i Heart Radio, if you're interested in hearing more of me blathering away about what's going on in the digital world. I'm really excited about this opportunity, because this is the radio station that I grew up listening to, and it really is a fun treat to be invited to the Mornings Rock with Terry DiMonte morning show. The segment is called, CTRL ALT Delete with Mitch Joel.



This week we discussed: 



While we have Bixi bikes here, in Montreal (and there are similar bike sharing experiences in many major metropolitan cities these days). With that, I experienced Bird on my recent trip to San Diego... and it was awesome. Really fast motorized scooters. No docking. Just randomly left all over the place for commuters to use. We all used to laugh at the idea of the Segway, when it first came out. Maybe it was a glimpse into our current/future state of urban transportation? Don't believe it? Bird is looking at a $2 billion valuation and brands like Uber are trying to figure out how to get in on the action.
How would you feel is a brand sent you an image by AirDrop? That's just what ESPN did during the NBA Finals. They sent personalized messages to iPhone users in locations like New York City. It was part of EPSN's "You Seeing This Thing?" Campaign. So, trolling on someone's AirDrop... genius marketing or intrusive and rude?
App of the Week: Prizmo Go.

Unsafe Thinking With Jonah Sachs - This Week's Six Pixels Of Separation Podcast

Episode #623 of Six Pixels of Separation - The Mirum Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to.



It was the early 2000s and viral marketing was just getting started. That's when Jonah Sachs rose to prominence. He created some of the world's first viral videos. His agency, Free Range Studios, created campaigns, like Amnesty International's awareness-raising video on blood diamonds (which was seen by 20 million people). Later Jonah helped to create The Story of Stuff, which was viewed by over 60 million people and marked a turning point in the fight to educate people about the environmental and social impact of consumer goods. Jonah went onto to create other viral campaigns for Greenpeace, Human Rights Campaigns and the ACLU, as well as consumer brands like Microsoft and Patagonia. Fast Company named him one of today's 50 most influential social innovators. In 2012, Jonah released his first book, Winning the Story Wars. Most recently, he published his sophomore effort, Unsafe Thinking - How to Be Nimble and Bold When You Need it Most. So, how safe is your brand thinking? Enjoy the conversation...

Six Links Worthy Of Your Attention #416

Is there one link, story, picture or thought that you saw online this week that you think somebody you know must see?


My friends: Alistair Croll (Solve for InterestingTilt the WindmillHBS, chair of StrataStartupfestPandemonio, and ResolveTO, Author of Lean Analytics and some other books), Hugh McGuire (PressBooks, LibriVox, iambik and co-author of Book: A Futurist's Manifesto) and I decided that every week the three of us are going to share one link for one another (for a total of six links) that each individual feels the other person "must see".


Check out these six links that we're recommending to one another: 



A Company Built on a Bluff - New York Magazine . "Since I'm picking on media properties today, here's one closer to home. Vice Media is a Montreal-born wunderkünd, promising to bring millennials back to broadcast programming. But as the company's financials unravel, their apparent immunity to the changes every media platform is undergoing has ended. Also, hijinks and shenanigans." (Alistair for Hugh).
The Stanford Prison Experiment was massively influential. We just learned it was a fraud - Vox . "People walking slowly when they think about the elderly. Delaying gratification and succeeding in life. All those clever, Kahneman-inspired anecdotes may be fun at parties, but they're likely wrong. Phil Zimbardo might be a TED darling -- along with Joachim de Posada and many others -- but there's no denying that psychology has a crisis of reproducibility. It's fuelled by the same problem facing news and politics: What's entertaining isn't usually what's true, on either side of the political aisle." (Alistair for Mitch).
On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs: A Work Rant - Strike Magazine . "Many interesting observations from this article, two of which are:  'If 1% of the population controls most of the disposable wealth, what we call 'the market' reflects what they think is useful or important, not anybody else.' And: 'In our society, there seems a general rule that, the more obviously one's work benefits other people, the less one is likely to be paid for it.. Say what you like about nurses, garbage collectors, or mechanics, it's obvious that were they to vanish in a puff of smoke, the results would be immediate and catastrophic. It's not entirely clear how humanity would suffer were all private equity CEOs, lobbyists, PR researchers, actuaries, telemarketers, bailiffs or legal consultants to similarly vanish.'" (Hugh for Alistair).
Visualizing Dante's Hell: See Maps & Drawings of Dante's Inferno from the Renaissance Through Today - Open Culture . "In my other shared link, David Graber posits a version of hell: 'Hell is a collection of individuals who are spending the bulk of their time working on a task they don't like and are not especially good at.' Not sure where that fits in Dante's Inferno, but here are some drawings to situate yourself." (Hugh for Mitch).
Apple's Airpods Are an Omen - The Atlantic . "It used to be (like last week) that getting your brand anywhere required a core focus on images and videos. Now, audio seems to be creeping back up into what it takes to connect with consumers today. From smart speakers and voice assistants to the rise in podcasting. We're listening... we're really really listening. This article suggests that this may not be the best thing ever for us humans. '...by going wireless, and by doing it so well, AirPods also decouple that intimacy from the tether that generally has signaled it in social circumstances. And even though it seems like a small matter--just a wireless headset--the device could fundamentally alter the way people interact with machines, and with one another.' Is it the hardware? Is it the content? Are humans just getting tired of interacting with one another in our protein forms? What strange people we have become..." (Mitch for Alistair). 
Inside the Binge Factory - Vulture . "Maybe you don't agree that bluetooth headsets are turning us into another type of human being. What about binge watching? What, exactly, does Netflix do so well that gets us so hooked on their content? Still, I'll often bing-watch a series and wonder to myself: 'was that worth it? I think I just watched a 15-hour movie about a comic book character!' Maybe we humans really are changing beyond recognition! This is how Netflix gets us..." (Mitch for Hugh).

Your Phone Is Listening In On Your Conversations And More On This Week's CTRL ALT Delete Segment On CHOM 97.7 FM

Every Monday morning at 7:10 am, I am a guest contributor on CHOM 97.7 FM radio out of Montreal (home base). It's not a long segment - about 10 minutes every week - about everything that is happening in the world of technology and digital media. The good folks at CHOM 97.7 FM are posting these segments weekly on i Heart Radio, if you're interested in hearing more of me blathering away about what's going on in the digital world. I'm really excited about this opportunity, because this is the radio station that I grew up listening to, and it really is a fun treat to be invited to the Mornings Rock with Terry DiMonte morning show. The segment is called, CTRL ALT Delete with Mitch Joel.



This week we discussed: 



While "To be or not to be"? may have been the big question, now it may well be "is my phone listening in on my conversations... or is it not"? I've had some strange stuff happen in this realm. I've mentioned something to someone during a call, and it suddenly shows up as an ad in my Facebook feed. Not one... but multiple times. Creepy? You bet. Am I delirious? According to this Vice article, I'm not all that paranoid and it is happening. 
Instagram and Snapchat are known for their short video quips. Fun, on the go mobile video content. Why stop there? Instagram is, apparently, in talks to develop long form video content. So, would you watch an hour-long video on Instagram? 
We often discuss the big FANG companies (Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google). What ever happened to MySpace? It turns out that some people (or many...?) are still all-in on MySpace. Why are people still using MySpace? What purpose does it serve and why are they so loyal to it? The Guardian decided to investigate... 
App of the Week: Waze.
