Did you know?
I was having a look at The Independent’s website this afternoon and found a really interesting video posted by Jimmy Leach. The video, which was created by the people running the Media Convergence Forum event in the US next month, looks at how the media landscape is changing and what new channels are opening up. Whether it be stats about newspaper readership to add to the newspaper vs. online debate, or about the number of texts messages an American teen receives in a month, there are some fascinating (but US based) facts and figures revealed. Did you know for example that MySpace, YouTube and Facebook get 250 million unique visitors per month collectively, or that Dell claims to have earned $3 million via Twitter posts since 2007? All of which lead the viewer into considering the other possibilities for reaching his/her intended audience.
Makes for a good watch – even if it is to drop random media-related statistics into meetings to sound more intelligent…..
