Another Fun Sports Clip

This is a must see for anyone who has ever played football.


So I got a comment on the post I did featuring that great baseball clip I found on Yahoo.com

Raquel, a fellow blogger, left the comment. I imagine she spends way too much time online and viewing online content. I only joke with her because she made a great recommendation. She recommended that I take a look at a certain middle school football clip.

So I did. I searched for it (based off her comment) and there it was on YouTube.

It is one of a kind. I honestly think this clip even out does the baseball clip.

It really is something else. You are going to have to see it for yourself.

Seriously this is something special. I wish I knew who came up with the idea. You have to have a lot of balls to pull something like this off. I wonder if this would ever work at a higher level.

Has anyone seen this tried before or is this an original idea?

Now that I have watched this thing two or three times... I want to give a shout to #19 in yellow. He almost got him. At least one of them had their head in the game. Ha.

Watch that QB!

Great Baseball Clip You May Have Never Seen

This is amazing. You have got to see it...


I found this video clip on Yahoo.com

It is really somethig else I am really surprised I have not seen it before. This was quite a play.

I always feel for the catcher a little bit when I see stuff like this. Though I should say this is one of the coolest plays I have ever seen and it is not like someone will ever get the chance to see something like this happen again.

I think this is college but I am not sure.

New Facebook Search Engine

I have heard rumors that there is a new search engine in the works. Supposedly a Facebook.com based search engine. That is all I really have on the matter. But what a rumor that is... wow.

A Facebook search engine would be huge.


My source is a friend I know personally whom is a rather successful online marketing and advertising consultant.

He admitted, if I am remembering it correctly, that he can not validate it with any certainty (I have to say that he could have been referencing the fact that he had no real details) but I could tell that he believed it 100%.

Did not ask his source, but he has some rather high end contacts, I have always been impressed by him.

I can't help but speculate how it may work. Would it leverage profile popularity, friend volume, or what?

I really am curious to find out more. No doubt there would be major shock waves through out the online search industry.

I have a strong premonition that it will be a separate domain, and separate entity though no doubt under the facebook.com and Microsoft umbrella.

If anyone knows or has heard anything about this please leave a comment or something. I am so curious.

A new search engine based off facebook.com seems like a product and online tool that could really add some value and unique ability and more importantly usability. Such a tool would have the leverage of a perspective that no one, including Google, can use or offer. I suppose MySpace.com has an argument to object to that statement but lets be honest with ourselves, they don't.

This new search engine from Facebook could really take from the Google market share.

I suppose it would take from Bing.com but that would only be important to Yahoo.com because Microsoft would be the beneficiary of the facebook.com search engine revenue from advertisers.

Hmmmm....

Very interesting.

Online Advertising Spending

Facebook.com is Bending Over the Porn Industry

Online Advertising Spending Round Up

Well the overall economy, the housing market, and consumer credit may be struggling but there is one side of the economy who missed the recession memo.

The online advertising and marketing industry is popping like never before. The entire industry seems to be doing well. All the usual suspects are turning big gains in revenue, profits, and of course possibility.


In this post I want to take a look at the mechanics of what is driving the ever increasing online advertiser spending.


Display Advertising


Google has seen a huge jump in online display advertising. YouTube.com is operating at over 100,000,000,000 monetized page views annually. This means that they (my speculation) have another 700,000,000,000 page views to figure out how to monetize.

I would say things are looking pretty good on that end.

Display advertising overall for Google is projected to create 2 or 3 billion of revenue this year. Though this is maybe 10% or even less of total revenues for Google, the fact that it is even worth mentioning is a huge breakthrough for google who for the longest time was simply not competing in the display adverting market.

Overall Google profits jumped about 33% year over year.

Nice.

Break Down of the Display Advertising Market Online


Total Display Advertising Market is 8.6 Billion

• AOL  -  4% -  $344,000,000.00
• Google - 6% - $516,000,000.00
• FaceBook. - 10% -  $860,000,000.00
• Yahoo! - 15% - $ 1,300,000,000.00

What I think is particularly interesting about this break down is that the numbers imply that the giants of the online industry are only accounting for about 1/3 of the total display advertising market.

Other big ones I can name from off the top of my head are adbrite.com which is a network. See the display below...

AdBrite.com

Then there are some large websites such as hulu.com which have to make a dent.

Any how one thing for sure is that the display advertising dollars and industry have a lot of room to grow and have a lot of uncertainty in exactly who and what will work for the long term and why.

It is going to be an exciting ride.

I am sure that finance bloggers are going to be all over this thing.

Interesting Quarterly Results Announced By Yahoo

Yahoo, a Internet search engine, advertising, and content provider, announced some very interesting results for their quarterly earnings.

Here are some Highlights From Yahoo's Quarterly Earnings:

• For starters, some bad news, revenues were down 12% (to 1.54 billion) compared to the same quarter last year.
• Earnings However, some great news, tripled up more then 300% to 186 million approximately or .13 cents a share. That compared to 4 cents a share.

So you may be asking yourself how is that even possible given that revenue was down so steeply? Well the answer in short is simple, at least in my opinion. I believe the shift in management is 100% of the efficiency and effectiveness of the operations and business model improvements which I also suspect has just begun. More specifically the brains behind all this is none other then Carol Bartz.

Ms. Bartz is a proven CEO who was made Yahoo's Chief Executive at the start of the year. I can only imagine her first reactions to the horrifying mess and chaotic operations model of the Internet giant in early January. But being the dignified all business executive that she is it seems as if she is whipping yahoo operations into shape. She has been cutting expenses left and right. She is selling parts of yahoo that don't fit the overall corporate objectives and model. Carol seems determined, and I see no signs of her stopping, as she will drop kick anything or anyone who stands in the way (inside joke).

On another note i wanted to let all my readers know that I am working on a article about the search advertising agreement between Yahoo and Microsoft's Bing.
