Hello to all! I apologize for not posting in awhile! I read this article and although it is not particularly marketing-focused, I decided to post it here. Has anyone heard of Wayne Huizenga? Ted Turner? Meg Whitman? Maybe not, but I think we have all heard of Waste Management, Blockbuster, CNN, and eBay! I found this article really interested because it presents people - entrepreneurs, who have recycled old ideas and re-invented them, instead of starting from scratch. I personally don't think that Entrepreneurs necessarily matter MORE than Innovators, but it is definitely an interesting concept. Hope you enjoy! http://gmj.gallup.com/content/150707/Why-Entrepreneurs-Matter- Innovators.aspx? utm_source=email&utm_medium=122011&utm_content=morelink&utm_campaign=newsletter#2

I just came across this article about flash mobs! I hadn't seen any of these videos before so these were all new! Flash mobs are when "large groups of people assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual and pointless act for a brief time, then disperse."  According to this article, the first flash mob was "created in Manhattan in May 2003, by Bill Wasik, senior editor of Harper's Magazine."  Enjoy the 5 videos that are posted in this article! http://www.creativeguerrillamarketing.com/guerrilla-marketing/flash-mob-guerilla-marketing-stunts-that-generated-buzz/

So, I realize this is not completely (or at all) related to marketing, but I saw this video the other day and absolutely had to post it here! The kids at the end are my favorite! What a hilarious/clever/delightful/funny idea! Thanks Jimmy Kimmel :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YQpbzQ6gzs
