Not even The Onion could have made this one up: a new company called Shopkick will drive points-hunting people with nothing better to do in life into your offline retail stores, and get in the way of those who have a life and money and go there only when they need to do some shopping. Kinda like Flooz, or Beenz in Europe, but in the real world. And “2.0″. Gotta love the “New Economy”.

Marketing 101

Show it to ‘em

Show them not only where you are, but where you’ve been, and possibly all the places and non-places in between. This is really “web2.0″ onanism at its finest.

Façade 2.0

Or they have someone lie for them, which is even more pathetic.

In: News that isn’t

Android-powered phones outsell Apple’s iPhone. Of course, this is important news for developers. But don’t reach for your handkerchief, for there’s really no reason to pity “poor Apple”. If smart phones represent 50% of the mobile phone market in the US, which either is or will be true very soon, this means that Apple, which before 2007 was selling exactly zero mobile phones, is (or will soon be) selling over 10% of all mobile phones in the US, or just shy of the number of Android-powered phones sold by Motorola, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, LG and HTC – combined. And not only that, but they’re doing so with just two models (the iPhone 3GS and the iPhone 4), charge a premium price, spend zero or close to zero on marketing (at least from what I see here in Europe), get a share of the mobile data traffic they generate from mobile operators, acquire your credit card details and often are able to sell you some stuff via the iTunes store, too. Poor Apple! ;-)

The largest toilet database ever

Sometimes I wonder what life was like before user-generated content, tagclouds, mashups and geolocation. Not to mention: didn’t people feel lost, lonely and terribly disconnected, without the support of a community of like-minded toilet-lovers ?
