Web 2.0 from Internet Marketing Point of View: 

Now, you can prepare catchy advertisements with animations, colourful texts and buttons. Social networking sites are providing personalized profile themes for each user enrolled. Whenever a person selects a page theme, the site creating the themes gets paid 

One of the Internet marketing technique is “blog posts”. Advertiser posts the advertisement on product related blogs. Blogs provide feeds that keep a track of related links being updated and they update themselves too. Thus, it has given a whole new dimension to the world of Internet marketing.

Poor online experience thus translates directly to less satisfied users, poorer brand perception, and higher costs. Sites that have mastered Web 1.0 technologies are now facing new technological hurdles as well. These new, richer, and more interactive experiences require the use of new technology and architectures. It is becoming much more difficult to understand the user experience, let alone deliver a high-quality experience.

No longer will measurements of single pages provide a view into the end-to-end performance of the user online. A modern site is a collection of third-party content and Web services that do not reside in one single data center. The Web has become a hotbed of innovation focused on increasing Web site performance and Web applications’ “stickiness.” Web 2.0 technologies are playing an increasingly important role in customer acquisition and retention. Companies are constantly looking to leverage new technologies, such as broadband video and social networking, to give consumers a more interactive experience. For example, Nike allows users to customize their footwear with preferred colors online, using a single-screen for the multistep configuration process.

Auto manufacturers’ sites showcase models in day-in-the-life settings that reveal the car’s features from the users’ perspective, allowing users not just to consume but also interact with multimedia. While AJAX and Rich Internet applications (RIAs) are two of its core technologies, social networking and mashups represent two techniques that are being increasingly adopted in the development community.

With the increase in social networks UGC is playing an important role in providing the content of the many Web sites. While Web site responsiveness is the key to a superior user experience, location, time of day, access mechanisms, and tariff structure influence the end-user experience. Web operations teams need tools that will alert them in real time when their Web performance falls below acceptable thresholds.

2008 promises to be another blockbuster year for mobile phones, and for mobile broadband, with technological evolution taking to brave new worlds, making them boldly go where no phone has gone before!

But what can we expect in 2008? What developments and technologies can we look forward to in the world of mobile phones and mobile broadband, this year?

Foretelling the Future!

Well, first of all, they’re going to be much more advanced than anything we can dream of now! You think 5 megapixel camera phones are good, you wait till you see mobile phones with 8, or even 10 megapixels in! And as for music phones, you can actually see them evolving, and growing ever more advanced. Even now, just 2 months into the year, if you look around, you’ll see more and more technologies being crammed into mobile phones, things like GPS, and proper internet access. And while we’re on the subject of the internet, let’s not forget the really big thing this year: mobile broadband.

Features What We Love!

The big success story of the last two years has been mobile phones with cameras built in, which is pretty cool, because when they first started being released, way back when, no-one knew they’d take off as much as they did. But they, and now we have a world full of mobile phones with 2, 3 and 5 megapixel cameras. In the future, we’ll see at least 8 megapixels, and it wouldn’t surprise if mobile phones crack the 10 megapixel mark! Music phones are going down much the same route, with more memory built in, newer and spanglier music players, and sheer quality oozing out their ears. Something that’s only really taking off as we speak, in the world of mobile phones, is built-in GPS, as more phones are starting to emerge with this ace feature built in. The same can be said of top-end smartphones with proper, fully featured web browsers, something that’s going to be massive in 2008.

Mobile Broadband

It’s fairly obvious that mobile phones aren’t going to drop out of favour any time soon. But there’s another technology that’s shaking up the mobile world, at least as much as the first mobile phone did back in olden times (well, the 80′s…), and that, dear reader, is mobile broadband. As the name suggests it’s broadband. And it’s, erm, mobile. Obviously. What it is, is a whole new way of getting online. Think of the super speed of your internet connection on broadband. Then imagine that you could get that internet speed on your laptop, without needing to hunt down a WiFi hotspot. And with an installation time of seconds, it’s so easy, as well! There’s no question, mobile broadband is the future!
