Outlook 2007 Search Won’t Work
The Outlook 2007 search function stopped working for me several months ago. I have not been able to identify what the culprit was. I have subsequently read if you try to install an older MS Office application it will hose the search feature in Outlook 2007. Although I don’t recall trying to install an older Office application, several months ago I did have an issue whenever I booted up my computer I would be greeted with a message prompting me to have Outlook Express compact messages to save space. Because I did not have Outlook Express installed, it was a bit frustrating to get this message on startup. So, after a little research, I discovered the only way to completely eradicate the problem required that I manually delete some files and make some registry hacks. FWIW, that did take care of that issue. However, it may or may not have been related to the issue that the search feature in Outlook 2007 stopped working. Read more

Digital Ad Spend UP: Social Media & Mobile Ads DOWN
Respondents of a recent online national survey on interactive advertising and digital marketing, reported by Business Wire, indicate email, digital advertising and search are still HOT; and are the reason why digital ad spend is up.
The bad news for social media advertising and mobile advertising is that they are falling short of the desired results businesses had hoped to see. Continuing to use a blend of advertising appears to be the best way to hedge against uncertainty in the social media and mobile advertising markets. The report indicates a great deal of risk exists in utilizing these forms of digital advertising. However, it stops short of defining any reason why social media and mobile advertising are failing to deliver the results that other forms of digital ads are delivering. Read more

FTC to monitor blog claims and endorsements
Trust and ethics are ingredients of traditional advertising wherein consumers have grown to expect acceptable levels of compliance; and not tolerate deceptive advertising practices. The Federal Trade Commission [FTC] is one of the government agencies responsible for monitoring and policing violators of the public trust in this arena. Blogging and tweeting, on the other hand, have escaped the scrutiny of the FTC, until now. Soon, the FTC will be monitoring claims and endorsements in blogs. In the future, will representations that are non-typical be given safe harbor in blogs and social media? It looks like tainted endorsements and claims about products and services that are not typical will be considered deceptive; and bloggers making these claims or endorsements may soon be under the scrutiny of the FTC.
