What We’re Reading, Sept. 9th

September 9, 2011 by Kari Rippetoe

I don’t want this to be the “9/11 Edition” of What We’re Reading, but I just wanted to share with you two posts I’ve read that I thought were interesting and insightful. I highly recommend sharing these with your communities as well.

  • 9/11 and the Promise of Community from Inkling Media – with the 10th anniversary of 9/11 coming up this weekend, I can’t help but think to myself how close we as a nation grew in the aftermath of those events, as well as what it might have been like if social media like Twitter and Facebook were around then. It would’ve unfolded in a much different way. Ken was in NYC when it happened, and has his own story about the community effect he witnessed.
  • 9/11/01: Where Were You? from the Feeding America Blog – we’re all thinking about this (many have been ever since it happened). Feeding America has put together this touching and introspective collection of memories from its national office staff.

And for something a bit more lighthearted, a video of the Freddie Mercury Google Doodle celebrating what would’ve been his 65th birthday – we here at Tuvel are definitely fans!

Give Peace a Chance

July 26, 2006 by Mitch Arnowitz

YouTube – John Lennon – Give Peace a Chance (1969)
Well, this is timely. Hotair reminds us of a better (?) time. Together now with John & Yoko– all we are saying is give peace a chance. While you’re at it, check out this short on George Harrison.

Live 8: AOL Sets Streaming Record

July 8, 2005 by Mitch Arnowitz

Amen to the Trend Junkie’s comment on Live 8 broadcast coverage. The distance between the old line broadcast and newer interactive models couldn’t have been more obvious.

Live 8 streaming video put the people in control. It was up to me to watch (and listen) to what and when I wanted to. Actors hired by the networks to talk over the music were filler in between advertisements.

Many marketers have written about AOL’s apparant marketing windfall from these shows. Besides, where else can you catch Neil Young in Canada, Pink Floyd and Annie Lennox in London — all without leaving your living room?

Put that against VH1 who during Pink Floyd’s first time playing
together with Roger Waters in 24 years, cuts to their VJ’s for some
brief irrelevant commentary. Lame.

And this post from Church of the Customer: If only MTV had apologized
