Open Source Maps Gain Ground as Google Paywall Looms | Wired Enterprise | Wired.com.
Good read about Mapping technology and how Google is going to start charging.. YIPES!
OpenStreetMap, or OSM, is yet another example of a project that manages to compete with a massive tech company simply by crowdsourcing a problem. Much like Wikipedia challenged Encyclopedia Britannica and Linux took on Microsoft Windows, OpenStreetMap is battling Google Maps, and at least in some cases, it’s winning.
OpenStreetMap founder Steve Coast says the project is “still waiting for the big one.” But in addition to Nestoria and making the leap to OSM, some bigger organizations have taken note. The White House employed OSM to track its Change campaign, and in 2008, the popular photo-sharing site…

WOW. the possibilities are endless with this technology.
I see this really coming in handy for real time web site analytics… if you could convince the user to let it track your eye that is.
What do you think this could be used for????

Social Media: What to Expect in 2012 | Social Media Today.
Good read.. but this one… wow.
11. Facebook will surpass 1 Billion people
“Where does that more than 1 billion Facebook users come from? The countries with more than 20 million people and Facebook penetration below 20% will add most of this growth in 2012. Add the potential growth of other countries and you get to a cool billion or 1.1 billion even. And that does not include China.” –Dreamgrow

What You Can Expect for Adland in 2012
What You Can Expect for Adland in 2012 | News – Advertising Age.
Four major trends to watch for in digital media in the year ahead
The engine of digital media — online display advertising — is firing on all cylinders. After several lean years, it was up 22% in third-quarter 2011. So if the good times are back, why are sellers of traditional digital media — including portals, publishers and ad networks — struggling? Two big reasons: Facebook; and real-time bidding technology that lets agencies and brands buy audience across the web.
The reality is that growth in digital-ad spending isn’t happening in display, and that’s hurting everyone — from the traditional powers of digital media to the online arms of media companies. Brands don’t want banners; they want deeper engagement through social media. With that in mind, we see four big trends in digital media for 2012:
1) Battle for “premium.” The question of who owns Yahoo should be resolved soon, but more important is whether Yahoo (with Microsoft and AOL) can create a so-called premium ad category by gating off inventory in private exchanges. If the approach works, expect a flurry of alliances between publishers to create scale for advertisers this way.
2) Accelerated consolidation. The battle to own the pipes for digital advertising is on, and Google is in the pole position. Expect Google to complete another sizable deal to fill out its product offering. Microsoft, which has spent the last three years obsessed with search, will also get back into deal-making by buying AppNexus for its exchange and real-time buying capabilities. Adobe will also play in this space, as will MediaOcean and perhaps a scaled data player, like Axciom.
3) Companies over features. Advertisers and agencies cannot do business with hundreds of different startups. This year a bright line will be drawn between those that can solve sticky marketing problems and those with features that might address part of the problem. Some will fire their sales teams and integrate into ad platforms like Google, AppNexus and others. Some — those with the least traction — will just quietly go away.
4) Muddled economics. More money will flow into startups chasing ad dollars, with ubiquitous “funds” adding to the venture-capital froth. Newly public and highly capitalized Facebook, Glam Media and Zynga will have the firepower to work with large brands, making competition even tougher for traditional publishers.

Interesting way to use social:
the survey of 1,000 adults found that younger people were more likely to use social media than older people for healthcare purposes. Overall, nearly a third of respondents, and 50 percent of those under the age of 35, had used social media for healthcare purposes, which can range from registering a complaint to looking up informational videos on YouTube.

24 ways: Adaptive Images for Responsive Designs
24 ways: Adaptive Images for Responsive Designs.
So you’ve been building some responsive designs and you’ve been working through your checklist of things to do:
- You started with the content and designed around it, with mobile in mind first.
- You’ve gone liquid and there’s nary a px value in sight; % is your weapon of choice now.
- You’ve baked in a few media queries to adapt your layout and tweak your design at different window widths.
- You’ve made your images scale to the container width using the fluid Image technique.
- You’ve even done the same for your videos using a nifty bit of JavaScript.
You’ve done a good job so pat yourself on the back. But there’s still a problem and it’s as tricky as it is important: image resolutions.

24 ways: Conditional Loading for Responsive Designs.
…But what happens when you apply your media queries for larger viewports and you dohave sidebars and multiple columns? Well, you can load in that nice-to-have content using the same kind of Ajax functionality that Paul described in his article last year. The difference is that you first run a quick test to see if the viewport is wide enough to accommodate the subsidiary content. This is conditional delayed loading….
