Apple attempts to change education, one “i” at a time

posted by Development

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.

2012 Social Media – The Ultimate Year of Share

posted by Public Relations

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.

The Pinterest of 2011 for the PR and Communications team

posted by Public Relations

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:

  1. Create great work
  2. Provide a high level of customer service
  3. Lead and support innovation
  4. 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.
