]]> Comment on Did social media play a role in how you found out about – or shared – news of Osama bin Laden’s death? by Jasmin http://www.mindatfocus.com/2011/05/03/did-social-media-play-a-role-in-how-you-found-out-about-or-shared-news-of-osama-bin-ladens-death/#comment-13 Jasmin Mon, 09 May 2011 12:56:21 +0000 http://www.mindatfocus.com/2011/05/03/did-social-media-play-a-role-in-how-you-found-out-about-or-shared-news-of-osama-bin-ladens-death/#comment-13 I am still not sure what to think about Osama bin Laden's death, as it would not the first time that everyone believes he is dead but he isn't in fact. But it is interesting to see that people get information more out of facebook than the newspaper. I also find myself reading the score of tennis games on facebook instead of the newspaper, because I know that my tennis-colleagues are going to post them. The advertisment next to the article on standard.at is really disturbing. I doesn't fit to the content at all!

I find it completly disturbing and unethical to advertise a game like "special forces" (which was shown during my first visit) next to an article that deals with the death of people in a tornado!

I also read it on FB and didn´t hear it on the radio first. But I´m more online than listening to radio or watching TV. I mean social media grows by it selves, there is no one behind except normal people. This story below may show which effects facebook also has in an destroyed area. The people lost almost everything (their home, cars, relatives, friends) but they are still connected to FB and try to find their stuff. They are proactive. http://derstandard.at/1303950635017/Tornado-Opfer-suchen-Verlorenes-im-Internet It´s incredible. I also read it on FB and didn´t hear it on the radio first.

]]> Comment on Are politicians in Austria really only bad in PR? by Christoph http://www.mindatfocus.com/2011/05/05/untitled-2/#comment-10 Christoph Mon, 09 May 2011 11:57:31 +0000 http://www.mindatfocus.com/2011/05/05/untitled-2/#comment-10 I'm sure they have pr-coaches - (Is there a difference between spin-doctors and pr-people?). For interesting insights see another thesis of armin wolf titled „Der Sieg ist das Bild: Die Inszenierung von Politik in der Mediengesellschaft" (http://www.nlp.at/hl/medien/wolf.pdf) Talking about the PR of Austrian political parties I found a very amusing press release: Can you find out what they try to say? Does the socialist-press-staff really think, that we are interested in a governor watching "dancing stars"?

Isn't it common for politicians to have those (at least in America... in films ^^). And if that's the case then those coaches are really bad at doing their job ;) I also think that we have a very stable democratic system (at least we have democracy, which we shouldn' take for granted...), but I think the little transparency is a problem.

Another example are the video tours and pictures of Google's stylish workplaces around the world. I think that's a really goog example for great marketing. http://www.presseverein.ch/uploads/2010/03/google_zh_office.jpg Google has the hang of making itself a good image.
