Today’s panel features social media early adopter and veteran marketer C.C. Chapman, Business Wire’s Social and Evolving Media Director Serena Ehrlich, and marketing technology specialist and business strategist Lynette Young. We talked about…
- The Cincinnati Zoo, which has had enough of the critical Harambe memes so it shut down its Facebook and Twitter accounts.
- Apple’s efforts to introduce a Snapchat-like app, which Facebook has already done with its new iOS-only Lifestage app, all while a growing number of teens are abstaining from social media (but not smartphones).
- Pornhub and RedTube’s offer of $100,000 in free advertising. Who would want their brand associated with pornography? Probably more brands than you might think.
- The unexpected number of people who opted for live streams over NBC’s on-air Olympics coverage and what that means for brands.
- Facebook’s move to relinquish most human control over its Trending feature and the resulting degrading of the user experience.
- What brands can learn from the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign’s social media “blitzkrieg” that accompanied her speech last week calling out the Trump campaign’s coziness with the “alt-right” movement.
- Instagram “insta-communities” and how marketers need to approach them.
- Dan York’s report covers the sad state of mics in mobile devices and the tech behind NBC’s live streaming of the Olympics.
