On Thursday, Jan. 19, techies, fan boys and the like gathered at the
Guggenheim Museum in New York for an education event hosted by Apple.
There, Phillip Schiller, Apple’s vice president of worldwide marketing,
unveiled some great new innovations for the education community. A new
version of their e-reader app, updates to their university Web portal
and an e-book creation tool.
Let’s start with that last one… iBooks Author.
It is a new desktop app available only on Mac OSX Lion. It allows
anyone to create an e-book. Anyone. For free. Users can then publish
their book to the iBookstore or iTunes U (more on those in a minute).
But the really great thing here isn’t that anyone can create and publish
a book. The exciting part about this is that Apple is pioneering a relatively new format.
It isn’t just a book. It’s more than words on a page. Apple gives users
access to a wealth of multi-touch widgets. Interactivity. Additionally,
users can add videos, keynote presentations and interactive 3-D
objects.

If we learned anything about social media in 2011, it’s that it is
almost impossible to predict, but we figured we would try to anyway,
just for fun. Check out what we think will happen with social media
marketing in 2012:
Your friends will have more influence than ever
(Yes,
we started off with an easy one.) We’ve already seen Facebook place a
large amount of weight on the “share” button as it now appears on every
wall post, and new analytics keep track of how many people share your
brand with their friends.
In addition to that, the recent introduction of Google’s social search
shows your friends’ likes, dislikes and overall commentary on almost
anything you search. We saw this rise toward the end of last year and
then receive a power boost at the start of 2012. This will only continue
as marketers have determined that you are more likely to make a
purchase based on a friend’s recommendation.

Misty Fry, public relations and communications manager, “pins” the team faves of 2011.
Although the thunder::tech team spends much more time thinking forward
than looking backward, the best part about writing a post to recap the
year is seeing just how far the Public Relations and Communications team
and the agency as a whole have come!
As Jason mentioned in his previous Account Services post, thunder::tech’s goal is to continue to live out these four guiding principles:
- Create great work
- Provide a high level of customer service
- Lead and support innovation
- Be an educational resource for clients
So, what better way to recap the great year than to review how the
PR/Communications team achieved this in 2011? Here’s a quick look at
some of our favorites.
