It was great to see @DonnaSpeciale from @GrowWithTU for our "Road to Cannes"! She says marketers have many opportunities for growth by connecting with Hispanic audiences, in interview w/ consultant @JoannaOConnell. Thank u @FreeWheel & @SpectrumReach beet.tv/2023/05/culture-crea…

These moves by tech giants like @Meta @amazon and @google parent Alphabet are depressing & scary. The societal implications of #socialmedia and #GenerativeAI colliding are profound. This, to please #wallstreet, feels so irresponsible by those most powerful. Gross.

Well, now that I’ve been publicly shamed in this latest episode of this podcast, I guess I really need to come on the damn thing don’t I? 😂. Until then guys, thanks for catching me at Possible.

Watching #Megan and all I can think about is the latest episode of #Hardfork from @kevinroose where the new #Bing gets all kinds of #creepy with him 😱

Who knew my favorite preso at the @ANAmarketers #media conference would be on #procurement?! 👏🏻 @mindshare and @Novartis challenging the #conventionalwisdom in a thoughtful way (hint: walking the consumer-centric walk, not just talking the talk)

Didn't make it to Cannes? We'll be publishing replays of TV’s Advanced Advertising Summit, starting with the Buyer Perspective – a critical conversation on what’s needed for the buyside to realize the promise of cross-screen advertising. Watch it now here: openap.tv/the-edit/video/can…

To me this is non-news. @Google #adtech is DOA if it doesn’t support 1P use cases. But it doesn’t want to touch “identifiers” with a 10 ft pole.

Google is aggregating GAM publisher 1P data for use by buyers in DV360. Smart move and privacy safe, though maybe not anti-trust safe: blog.google/products/admanag…

Snap’s earnings show the rising, real-world impact of #datadeprecation. Check out this blog from me, @sliuf @jessieliu_ to get our take.

I was recently reminded that I wrote a piece of @forrester research back in 2012 - yep, 9 YEARS AGO - advising marketers to focus on transparency and a clear value exchange with consumers where behavioral advertising was concerned. If only... forrester.com/report/how-to-…
