  • Chapter # 1 Introduction
    Chapter # 1 Introduction Mobile applications (apps) have been gaining rising popularity dueto the advances in mobile technologies and the large increase in the number of mobile users. Consequently, several app distribution platforms, which provide a new way for developing, downloading, and updating software applications in modern mobile devices, have recently emerged. To better understand the download patterns, popularity trends, and development strategies in this rapidly evolving mobile app ecosystem, we systematically monitored and analyzed four popular third-party Android app marketplaces. Our study focuses on measuring, analyzing, and modeling the app popularity distribution, and explores how pricing and revenue strategies affect app popularity and developers’ income. Our results indicate that unlike web and peer-to-peer file sharing workloads, the app popularity distribution deviates from commonly observed Zipf-like models. We verify that these deviations can be mainly attributed to a new download pattern, to which we refer as the clustering effect. We validate the existence of this effect by revealing a strong temporal affinity of user downloads to app categories. Based on these observations, we propose a new formal clustering model for the distribution of app downloads, and demonstrate that it closely fits measured data. Moreover, we observe that paid apps follow a different popularity distribution than free apps, and show how free apps with an ad-based revenue strategy may result in higher financial benefits than paid apps. We believe that this study can be useful to appstore designers for improving content delivery and recommendation systems, as well as to app developers for selecting proper pricing policies to increase their income.

Social media uses web-based technologies to turn communication into interactive dialogues. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define social media as "a group of Internet-based applications that build on the ideological and technological foundations of Web 2.0, which allows the creation and exchange of user-generated content."[1] Businesses also refer to social media as consumer-generated media (CGM). Social media utilization is believed to be a driving force in defining the current time period as the Attention Age. A common thread running through all definitions of social media is a blending of technology and social interaction for the co-creation of value. Distinction from industrial media People gain information, education, news, etc., by electronic media and print media. Social media are distinct from industrial or traditional media, such as newspapers, television, and film. They are relatively inexpensive and accessible to enable anyone (even private individuals) to publish or access information, compared to industrial media, which generally require significant resources to publish information.

He grew more suspicious when a $16.91 refund arrived from Google Inc. The refunds were for "unusual clicks" and "invalid click activity" and they suggested someone was sabotaging Mr. McKelvey's advertising strategy. He pitches his charter-jet brokerage the way companies increasingly do: contracting with Yahoo and Google to serve up small text ads to anyone searching the Web using certain words, such as "private jet" or "air charter." He pays the search companies a fee every time someone clicks on his ads. But Yahoo and Google determined someone was clicking on CharterAuction.com Inc.'s ads with no intention of doing business, thus unfairly driving up the company's advertising costs. Mr. McKelvey, turning detective, combed through lists of "IP" addresses, the identifying codes supplied by computers when they access Web sites.

By Erika Fry, reporter @FortuneMagazine February 6, 2014: 5:29 PM ET Recommend 93 52 13 36 3 TOTAL SHARES (Fortune) Daniel Grayson thought there was probably something fishy about the kid who said his childhood friend died from a procedure in a back-alley abortion clinic in Bangkok. Grayson, an associate director of admissions at Tufts University who recruits students and reviews applications from Southeast Asia, had been warned about too-good-to-be-true applications from Thailand. This one, from a student who claimed to have been so inspired by his friend's plight that he made a documentary on illegal abortion and promoted it with great success on the Internet, got him wondering. Grayson emailed the applicant, a senior at a Thai international school, asking to see the film. He heard back several weeks later from the student, who sent a link to a video posted to YouTube the day before by another person. The "documentary" -- a three-minute reel of stock photo images accompanied by a student reading a bland script on abortion -- looked hastily thrown together. Tufts denied the applicant. In fact, during the 2013 admissions season, Grayson threw out a quarter of the applications from Thailand for suspected cheating. The applicants, he says, had offered impressive stories of enterprising (but fictitious) extracurricular projects, like the student who said he had invented an elephant motion detector to help protect agricultural fields in rural Thailand.

  • Google's Management Change and the Enterprise
    STEPHEN E ARNOLD APRIL 20, 2011 Google’s Management Change and the Enterprise Google completed its management shift in April 2011 with several bold moves. The story of founder Larry Page’s move to the pilot’s seat appeared in most news, financial, and consumer communication channels. American business executives have a status similar to that accorded film and rock and roll stars. An aspect of the changes implemented in his first week on the job as the top Googler included some surprising, and potentially far reaching shifts in the $30 billion search and advertising giant. First, a number of executive shifts took place. Jonathan Rosenberg, the senior vice president of product management, left the company on the day Mr. Page officially assumed Mr. Schmidt’s duties. Mr. Rosenberg, a bright and engaging professional, was not a technologist’s technologist. I would characterize Mr. Rosenberg as a manager and a sales professional. The rumor that Mr. Rosenberg and Mr. Schmidt would write a book about their experiences at Google surfaced and then disappeared. The ideas was intriguing and reinforced the Charlie Sheen-magnetism senior business executives engender in the post-crash US. The echo from the door snicking shut had not faded when Mr. Page announced a shift in the top management of the company. For example, Sundar Pichai http://www.thechromesource.com/sundar-pichai- chrome-and-chrome-os-vp-being-courted-by-twitter/ (who has been at Google since 2004 and was allegedly recruited by Twitter) took over Chrome, Google’s Web browser and possible mobile device operating system alternative to Android.

September 2, 2010 YouTube Ads Turn Videos Into Revenue By CLAIRE CAIN MILLER SAN BRUNO, Calif. — Last month, a YouTube user, TomR35, uploaded a clip from the AMC series “Mad Men” in which Don Draper makes a heartfelt speech about the importance of nostalgia in advertising. Viewers wouldn’t notice, but that clip also makes an important point about modern advertising — YouTube is an increasingly fruitful place for advertisers. In the past, Lions Gate, which owns the rights to the “Mad Men” clip, might have requested that TomR35’s version be taken down. But it has decided to leave clips like this up, and in return, YouTube runs ads with the video and splits the revenue with Lions Gate. Remarkably, more than one-third of the two billion views of YouTube videos with ads each week are like TomR35’s “Mad Men” clip — uploaded without the copyright owner’s permission but left up by the owner’s choice. They are automatically recognized by YouTube, using a system called Content ID that scans videos and compares them to material provided by copyright owners. Those two billion views, a 50 percent increase over last year, according to the company, are just 14 percent of the videos viewed each week on the Google-owned site.
