Random/pithy notables:
26m25 - "Advertising does not know how to retain"
28m - Consumer affairs/customer service becoming the next/new media department
33m - we disagree and debate "time spent" as a metric
38m - Are web metrics a crap shoot?
47m10 - Kalehoff on the Clock
49m28 - Winners & Losers: Max's loser is the initiative around Pay-Per-Post and Joseph's losers are those bloggers who don't realize that healthy conversation requires disagreement, debate, discourse and yes, even a bit of disgust. Max's winners are the new content creators like EepyBird with respect to getting sponsored by Coca-Cola through their Diet Coke-Mentos experiment and Joe gives the nod to the whole Red campaign.
