Kate Miltner received her Master’s Degree from the London School of Economics for her dissertation on LOLCats . You read correctly…. LOLCats. The silly cat photographs with bad grammar and bad spelling have just earned someone a prestigious educational accomplishment. As odd as the dissertation may sound, my opinion is that it contains some real insightful information about the importance of memes and an important connection to the marketing world.

May 17, 2012 | Alex Berg: Designing Solutions with Visualforce Mobile Components
I’ve started looking heavily into the Visualforce Mobile Components, a community-maintained set of Visualforce components that make it easy to develop Visualforce pages designed for tablet browsers. It’s open source and has an above average set of docs on both Github and on a Developerforce wiki. While these docs are certainly useful to devs, I was looking for an evaluative look at the solution as a whole and a judgement of its architecture.

May 15, 2012 | Benjamin Myhre: Pinterest is for guys too
I am going to do my part to dispel the rumor that Pinterest is a women’s social application and not for men. I have been guilty of this thought myself. I have mostly seen my gal friends as the ones that use Pinterest and I have even poked fun at the guys that I have busted pinning things to their Pinterest board. That all changes now….. I am opening up a Pinterest account.

When creating commercials or other content for broadcast television, production companies need to adhere to certain standards. These standards have been driven from two primary sources: the Federal Communications Commission and the owners of the broadcast outlets.
For many years, the technical process of creating commercials or other content for broadcast television was fairly straightforward. There were no widescreen plasma or LCD screens. All television sets contained a cathode ray tube, which beamed an image onto a phosphorescent screen. The size of the image, measured in scan lines, was 720 x 486, a 4:3 aspect ratio. All television cameras and video tape recorders captured 4:3 images. Producers, photographers and editors practiced their craft inside the confines of that 4:3 image and all networks and local stations broadcast an analog standard definition signal.
