I took this photo in Jaffa in 2007. I saw it today and it reminded me of how much I miss you. Right now, ten years feels like two hundred.
Although, in fairness, it doesn’t have a UI yet…
Whut?! How can you say it’s looking good when there aren’t any colors yet?
Just kidding, roll back to yesterday.
Definitely looking forward to this guys. Would love a sneak peek as well…
If you believe the forecasters, 2010 will be the year of the long-awaited inflection point when TV budgets begin to shift to online video in a meaningful way. In 2009, advertisers are projected to spend $699 million on online video ads, an increase of 32% from last year, “outpacing growth rates for most other emerging media platforms,” according to a forecast from Brian Wieser, Global Director of Forecasting for Magna. Jack Myers says that online video advertising will increase by 115% to $968 million in 2009 and is forecasting it to be the fastest growing segment of the media industry through 2012, when it is expected to hit nearly $5 billion.
