- Tuesday, June 26, News Round-Up (see below)
- Brand.net Acquisition To Help Brands Speak Locally Says Valassis CTO Parkinson "Brand.net brought a richness in agency contacts and agency relationships. While we've had those as well, Brand.net is much deeper in the digital agencies, so what I think will happen is agencies where we probably didn't get as much time [in past] are now going to get a chance to see how we can have a blended media solution, across the requirement set. That's going to be a huge advantage for us..." (visit AdExchanger.com)
- Focus On The Customer With Social CRM Says M80's Mark Evans "'Paid' definitely has a role. It's important in terms of awareness and acquisition and will always be an important component of it. 'Earned' allows you to extend a campaign. If you think about how campaigns used to work, in theory, there was a beginning and an end. Now we have timeless campaigns with content that's evergreen,..."

- Media6Degrees' Phillips: We're Not A Social Media Ad Net - But Facebook Exchange Could Change That "The first thing Media6Degrees' CEO Tom Phillips wants you to understand about his company is this: the "prospect targeting" provider initially started off four years ago using data gleaned from users' social media activity to create a consumer profile..."

- CMO And CIO Uniting As Service Partners Find Their Role Says IBM's Yuchun Lee "Last week, IBM released the results of its "State of Marketing 2012" (on Slideshare) survey.

Here's today's AdExchanger.com news round-up... Want it by email? Sign-up here.
Funding Attribution
Remember that famous Tom Hanks line: "There's no crying in ad tech." As Visual IQ proves, there's no crying because the investment keeps flowing. The attribution and analytics solution provider raised another $12 million on top of an initial $3 million raise. The company claims traction in the release, "Visual IQ currently manages over $5 billion in media spend on behalf of its clients, which include two of the top three national advertisers, as well as two of the top three agency holding groups." Read the release. The quest for the cross-channel attribution Holy Grail continues.
NYT Flips
For the past year, social reader Flipboard has been working with publishers like Condé Nast to not only distribute content from magazines like The New Yorker on its glossy-like tablet pages, it's been also extending the ads on those titles properties as well. The New York Times would seem to have been faced with a choice between open, ad-supported access and protecting its digital paywall when it decided to make all its content - not just stories from its feeds - available on Flipboard. But as AdAge's Nat Ives reports, the newspaper appears to have found some middle ground, as it will be bringing its pay meter to cover its Flipboard content.
Polymorphic (Display) Ads
This sounds like an ad unit that Dr. Bruce Banner and The Incredible Hulk would like. Microsoft revealed a use case for something called "Polymorphic Ads" at Cannes last week. Microsoft Advertising's Jennifer Creegan explains on the company blog, "The challenge today is that launching multiscreen campaigns is too difficult and time consuming. Polymorphic ads are designed to streamline this process and help brands to focus on telling their story rather than campaign implementation." The idea is to make a conversion across multiple platforms easy. Read more (see a video).
Viewable Video
A VideoHub report suggests there's little problem with video advertising when it comes to viewability. From the release: "Approximately 88 percent of all ads streamed in the first quarter were fully visible to viewers, much stronger than statistics have indicated for display ads. Of the 3.5 billion video streams analyzed, 7 percent were partially obstructed, while viewers never saw the remaining 5 percent." I wonder what they missed. Read more.
Casale Media Offers SSP
What comes after a world where "everyone's a publisher"? Maybe a world where everyone's a publisher platform. Casale Media is getting into the SSP game, dubbed the Index Platform. VP of Strategy Andrew Casale tells AdWeek that when the RTB madness hit several years back Casale Media zagged to serve the supply side while others like Turn and ValueClick zigged to serve advertisers. "There's a handful of SSPs, but now there's somewhere around 40 or 50 DSPs. So it's a good time to innovate and bring a new option to publishers." Read more.
Sponsor Message: LBi's 'For Sale' Sign
Amsterdam independent digital agency LBi is looking for some attention from prospective buyers by with a less than subtle press release about "inevitable speculation" that its available for purchase following last week's WPP acquisition of AKQA. As the board says in the release, it is having "preliminary discussions" with potential suitors, but "there's no certainty an offer will be made."
But Wait. There's More! By John Ebbert
