		<title>The Mobile Web.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In an earlier post I wrote about mobile marketing and how it&#8217;s becoming incredibly popular, due in part to the fact that the number of cell phone subscribers will hit four million this year. Not only are phones being used to talk, they&#8217;re being used to text, play music, watch videos, reply to e-mail, surf [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newmediaandme.wordpress.com&blog=5255595&post=89&subd=newmediaandme&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>New media marketing that annoys me.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems that marketers continually try to outdo each other. Every commercial has to be bigger, better, funnier, more creative than the last &#8211; bigger, better, funnier, and more creative than the competition&#8217;s. Maybe it&#8217;s just me, but it seems that the very commercials I&#8217;m talking about are the ones advertising new media-related products aimed [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newmediaandme.wordpress.com&blog=5255595&post=86&subd=newmediaandme&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In an earlier post, I wrote about the role new media has in the life of members of Generation Y. Marketers are effectively using new media to reach youth. But, is it ethical? Marketing to children has long been a topic of discussion-and it seems there are plenty of reasons against it.
 
Here are a few [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=newmediaandme.wordpress.com&blog=5255595&post=78&subd=newmediaandme&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
