			<title>3 Reasons Your Social Strategy is Failing (And What to Do Instead)</title>
			<link>http://ukbloggers.net/blogs/3-reasons-your-social-strategy-is-failing-and-what-to-do-instead.html</link>
			<description>&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Social tactics are not meaningful sales drivers&quot;, according to Forrester's latest research report.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;They analyzed primary sales drivers for eCommerce, and concluded that less than 1% of buyers were from social visitors.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;There's a few possible explanations for this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;The first (and most important) is that social aids the buying process indirectly, and is difficult to track -- which leads companies (and research firms) to under-appreciate and under-invest.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;...</description>

			<title>The 6 hottest new jobs in IT</title>
			<link>http://ukbloggers.net/blogs/the-6-hottest-new-jobs-in-it.html</link>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;IT job seekers have real reason to hope. No fewer than 10,000 IT jobs were added to payrolls in May alone, according to the Bureau of Labor statistics, reflecting a steady month-over-month increase since January. And in a June survey by the IT jobs site Dice.com, 65 percent of hiring managers and recruiters said they will hire more tech professionals in the second half of 2011 than in the previous six months.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;But which jobs have the greatest growth potential -- and stand the best c...</description>

			<title>Tips for building addictive mobile apps</title>
			<link>http://ukbloggers.net/blogs/tips-for-building-addictive-mobile-apps.html</link>
			<description>&lt;p&gt;According to a new survey conducted by MTV Networks (MTVN), a whopping 83% of mobile app users say they're addicted to their apps. For obvious reasons, that's good news for companies participating in the still-rapidly growing app economies built around Apple iOS and Google Android.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But of course, not all apps are successful. In fact, another new study shows that nearly a third of the Android apps released on Android Market have disappeared.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;So how can companies make their apps more ...</description>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;The WWDC 2011 keynote has just wrapped up, and Steve Jobs and company have announced some very interesting features for the iOS family of devices, including improvements to browsing, rich reminders, and a slightly Android-esque Notification Center.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Apple has its own page with many of these features, but here are the big ones as we see them, and links to further coverage on the network.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Notification Center – iOS has always been deficient in the notifications departm...</description>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;There won&amp;rsquo;t be any new Street View pics of Germany from Google. Even after the company won a battle in a German court in March, which ruled that it&amp;rsquo;s legal in Germany to take pictures from the street even from the Street View camera&amp;rsquo;s height of 10 feet, a Google spokesperson told Search Engine Land that it has other priorities:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our business priority is to use our Google cars to collect data such as street names and road signs to improve our basic maps fo...</description>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;StumbleUpon is hot. The discovery and recommendation engine that makes web browsing a lot like channel surfing just announced it’s now handling 1 billion stumbles per month.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;On top of that impressive number, StumbleUpon just closed a second round of funding in March, wrapping up $17 million of series B financing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;That 1 million stumbles-per-month statistic represents explosive growth, especially when you consider that since just a month ago, that number has grown by 200 mill...</description>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Though the majority of retailers are convinced that mobile commerce will eventually become as popular as e-commerce, just 16% have a strategy in place, and 28% have no plans to implement one.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;The findings are based on a Vanson Bourne survey of 100 marketing and IT directors at UK retailers, and 1,000 consumers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here's a few highlights from the study...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Retailers' attitudes to mobile commerce&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;The timescales vary, but 83% believe mobile commerce will ...</description>

			<description>&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yeah, you might think this controversial headline will get me some likes and tweets (well, you bet it will!), but the matter of fact is, that the biggest mistake that marketers on Facebook make is indeed ignorance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Let me take a few minutes to explain why I think that...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Brands don`t only ignore their fans, they ignore their presence&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;We still find many brands in the world that are not in control of their Facebook presence.

			<description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;When you&amp;rsquo;re marketing to an audience that believes &amp;ldquo;what I&amp;rsquo;ve always been doing works just fine,&amp;rdquo; it&amp;rsquo;s hard to get the point across that there&amp;rsquo;s a better way to live life or do business. Even when a business creates a product or service that solves a problem or opens an opportunity, sometimes, the market still doesn&amp;rsquo;t realize that there&amp;rsquo;s a problem in the first place.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;This came up in a recent conversation with a small ...</description>
