Content marketing is growing up

Picked up an interesting Infographic on a blog today about content marketing. It sketches the relationship between a content type and a distribution channel from a buyer's perspective. Apparantly the guys who made this infograph won 6 awards with the previous one.

but check out this one first:

Happy Birthday email!

40 years ago the first email was born. 40 years! What a way to take over the world, from some weird communication tool between nerds to a life-encompassing way of communicating.

But will email add another decade? I dare think not: if you look at kids' behaviour these days they hardly ever use email. They never open a Smartschool inbox unless they absolutely have to, never check their g-mail (or, when older, hotmail) accounts and in general are becoming less and less email-savvy. At least, ours are. It's all (Facebook) messaging these days.(With thanks to Mashable)

the end of an era

25 flights, 4671 orbits, 122,883,151 miles and 299 days in space .... Endeavour returned to earth this afternoon, finalizing it's last mission and we're so used to it that we didn't even take notice. It wasn't the last Nasa mission (that honour is reserved for Atlantis in a couple of weeks) but still: definitely the end of an era.
