Russian Bombings Send Chill Through Olympics Sponsors


The bombings that killed at least 31 people just 24 hours apart in the Russian city of Volgograd could have a chilling effect on February’s Sochi Winter Olympics, even though sponsors won’t pull out.

With only 38 days to go until Sochi, global International Olympic Committee sponsors such as McDonald’s, Procter & Gamble and Visa have neither the time nor the inclination to bail out at the eleventh hour, said Edward Turzanski, co-chair of the Foreign Policy Research Institute’s Center for the Study of Terrorism.

“I’d be hard-pressed to understand a sponsor that withdraw their support from the Games. There would be a PR cost to that. You wouldn’t be bathing yourself in glory by pulling out,” he said.

Best of the Best Lists: The Year’s Top Music According to Rolling Stone, Spin and More


EDITOR’S NOTE: To close out the year, Ad Age media columnist Simon Dumenco is gathering up selected notable critics’ picks across pop culture and presenting them in convenient, all-in-one servings by category. He starts here with music.

Britain’s The Guardian is known not only for its fearless journalism (in 2013, its coverage of Edward Snowden’s NSA revelations in particular), but for its superb culture coverage. Its team of music editors and writers have created a “Best albums of 2013” landing page that also links to the best mixtapes and tracks of the year as well as plenty of spirited commentary (e.g., Tim Jonze’s “Why I hate Get Lucky, everyone’s favourite song of 2013”). The Guardian’s pick for best album of 2013: Kanye West’s “Yeezus.” While acknowledging that, musically, “for some listeners, the sound is simply too unpleasant” and lyrically it’s full of “grandstanding and aggression (quite frequently sexual),” the paper, in an un-bylined post, concludes that “the grand provocations in Yeezus are matched, step for step, by its craftsmanship.”

Rolling Stone presents its “50 Best Albums of 2013” list as a countdown. At No. 50 there’s Beck’s “Song Reader” (“a sly collection of folky swing tunes, steeped in Beck’s absurdist wit”) and at No. 1 you’ll find (surprise?) Vampire Weekend’s “Modern Vampires of the City” (“In 2013, no other record mixed emotional weight with studio-rat craft and sheer stuck-in-your-head hummability like this one”).

‘Techno Paranoia’ and 9 Other Privacy Trends Marketers Need to Watch In 2014


Dictionary.com deemed “Privacy” to be the word of 2013. It seems appropriate considering continual media coverage of the National Security Administration’s data harvesting efforts, not to mention a heightened recognition among the general public the data we generate and who’s collecting it.

What will it mean for marketers in 2014? Ann Mack, JWT’s director of trendspotting, along with others at the global ad agency giant have some predictions on privacy we pulled from its report, “100 Things to Watch in 2014.”

A internet visualizada como obra de arte

Data Portraits mapeia websites e transforma seus dados e informações – muitas vezes invisíveis a nossos olhos – em obras de arte. As visualizações revelam a complexidade e a interdependência da arquitetura de uma web em constante mudança.

“Meu objetivo era mostrar um lado diferente da web que vemos todo dia.” – Martyn Dade Robertson, em seu artigo

Cada retrato é a visualização de um website congelado em um período de tempo. Isso inclui links de navegação como também códigos, imagens, vídeos e demais camadas de links externos que constituem uma página.

O projeto foi criado pelo pesquisador e professor Martyn Dade Robertson, da Newcastle University.

Para financiar sua pesquisa e experimentação, Robertson está criando “retratos” de gigantes websites como GoogleNASAWired e Qantas Airlines. Qualquer um também pode pedir um retrato de graça aqui.

“Se o Google fosse um artista, o que ele pintaria?” – Martyn Dade Robertson

O projeto levou 10 anos para chegar aqui. A primeira etapa envolveu a construção de um web crawler para rastrear e mapear todos os links relacionados a uma URL específica. Depois disso, foi desenvolvido um software chamado Web Cartographer, que cria os desenhos do retrato.

Cada nó representa os componentes do website, como imagens e scripts, e as linhas representam as ligações entre eles. O desenho é plotado para que os nós que se relacionam entre si gravitem juntos, assim padrões únicos são formados. Há um pouco de aleatoriedade no retrato também, dependendo de onde cada nó é colocado.
