EarthCam To Present Live Webcast of the Thanksgiving Parade From Times Square

Posted on November 22, 2011 by admin


New York (PRWEB) November 22, 2011

EarthCam, the world’s premiere webcam network since 1996, will present a live webcast of the 85th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade as it passes through Times Square in New York City. This year, EarthCam will feature a webcam offering visitors a 3D viewing experience. The webcast will begin at approximately 9:30am EST on Thursday, November 24th. This Thanksgiving will mark the 12th consecutive year that EarthCam has webcast the parade.

EarthCam will deliver this famous parade to visitors live in 3D via its interactive website. Viewers will have two ways to view the festive floats and colorful balloons in 3D. The first way will be with the traditional method viewed with glasses where the two lenses are different colors, such as red and blue. The second way will be for those with a 3D television.

Every year, millions of people flock to New York City to experience the parade. Now visitors to EarthCam’s website can feel like they are actually standing there along the sidelines. Enjoy multiple views of the parade from several angles, and watch in HD streaming video as Kermit the Frog, Spiderman, Sailor Mickey and many other colossal balloons make their official appearances. The unique location of the special new 3D BalloonCam, perched 50 feet above the street, delivers an eye-level view of the parade balloons as they drift over the crowd. This vantage point is the perfect way to experience the 3D effect. EarthCam’s HD streaming cameras also include audio, inviting visitors to listen to the festive music as bands march down 7th Avenue and entertain the crowd.

Following the live event, archives will be available for public viewing. The archived images will feature a variety of views that highlight the best aspects of the parade.

Viewing tips: if you do not have a pair of 3D glasses, they can be made easily from any number of templates found online and with two pieces of colored cellophane. The 3D TV user will need to switch the TV to 3D mode and select side-by-side 3D format (popular brands include Sony, Toshiba and Samsung).

Stucck? Is Shopping Gone Social?Facebook App Helps Consumers Decide Between Products Based on Friend Feedback

Posted on November 15, 2011 by admin


Winston Salem, N.C. (PRWEB) November 15, 2011

The Variable (http://www.thevariable.com) has officially launched Stucck (http://www.stucck.com), a Facebook application designed to aid consumers in deciding between two products for purchase. Stucck is an innovative e-commerce and social media application conceived, designed and launched by The Variable that enables a consumer to poll their Facebook friends on what to buy when ?stuck? deciding between two products. Its interface displays an intuitive side-by-side comparison of the two items, and aggregates the user?s Facebook friends? comments and votes for each in real time ? ultimately; helping them make a more informed purchase decision based on advice they trust.

Stucck aims to help consumers navigate the advertising saturated marketplace by giving them a way to gather only the most trusted product reviews ? that is those from family and friends. The first virtual application of its kind to use social media as a consumer decision engine, Stucck applies the age-old truth about the power of personal, word-of-mouth recommendations.

For Stucck?s beta launch, featured product categories include books, movies, music, shoes, fashion and wireless. Stucck also features easy to use privacy settings that can be modified at the user?s convenience. For example, if buying a gift, users can keep a Stucck hidden from the intended gift recipient by simply changing the Facebook share settings.

Stucck uses peer-to-peer social networks as a consumer?s decision engine for purchasing goods, utilizing the value of personal feedback and puts the power squarely in the users? corner. There is a rapidly growing relationship between a user?s social graph (web of social connections) and their ability to reference it for making choices. Stucck brings it all together.

?The fact is, the more customers research their purchase options on the web, the more frustrated and confused they are becoming. Online product reviews are being overrun with paid marketing content and conflicting advice from people who simply don?t know you,? said Joe Parrish, Chief Creative Officer at The Variable. ?We invented Stucck to make shopping an enjoyable experience again, something you can share with friends and make truly informed purchase decisions.?

The majority of consumers are having brand perceptions shaped and altered through social engagement. Brands fall into and out of favor as a result of the insights consumers are gaining from social media. In a case where the brand is not a category leader, the effect is more pronounced, and Stucck?s influence will play a greater substantive role than search in influencing brand perception.

Numerous studies support the notion that word-of-mouth is one of the greatest influences on brand choice. For example, in a study about the role of social media in consumer behavior from Harris Interactive, 71% of respondents said reviews from family members and friends trump all other consumer touch points when it comes to influencing purchases. ?Especially during the holiday season, Americans are bombarded with ads and promotions as every brand vies for your attention, and your wallet,? said Keith Vest, President of The Variable. ?Stucck will be a game-changer, as consumers are going to have a place where they help each other decide which products are really worth buying.?

The Variable, is a digitally informed marketing and communications lab. Based in Winston Salem, North Carolina, the team at The Variable has built its business on combining proprietary data with exceptional creative that works. The Variable looks to work with clients hungry for innovation (in everything from marketing execution to payment terms) and measurable success.

United Breaks Guitars

Posted on November 8, 2011 by admin

Visit www.UnitedBreaksGuitars.com for case studies and highlights from Dave’s speaking tour. There is now a video response www.youtube.com Full Story: www.davecarrollmusic.com – In the spring of 2008, Sons of Maxwell were traveling to Nebraska for a one-week tour and my Taylor guitar was witnessed being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago. I discovered later that the 00 guitar was severely damaged. They didnt deny the experience occurred but for nine months the various people I communicated with put the responsibility for dealing with the damage on everyone other than themselves and finally said they would do nothing to compensate me for my loss. So I promised the last person to finally say no to compensation (Ms. Irlweg) that I would write and produce three songs about my experience with United Airlines and make videos for each to be viewed online by anyone in the world. United: Song 1 is the first of those songs. United: Song 2 has been written and video production is underway. United: Song 3 is coming. I promise. Follow me at twitter.com . Video Produced by Curve Productions of Halifax, www.curveproductionsinc.com.
