The 'record-breaking' response to Steve Jobs' death: By the numbers

As I like statistical numbers I find this article interesting.

When steve Jobs died almost the whole world talked about it at lest thought of it. Can you imagine that 10.000 people per second were tweeting about his death the same day. According to The Economic Times it's the biggest online reaction to any event in recent history.

8.868 Tweets per second were registered when Beyonce announced her pregnancy during the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards performance. It was a previous record.

iPad survives 100.000 feet fall

How many of you have an iPad or an iPhone with cases that protect your device from damages? And do you believe that these cases protect them seriously?
Personnally, I rely on cases. I have an iPhone and I dropped it several times and it is not damaged thanks to the plastic case. So we can say that cases are reliable, but then it highly depends on the quality of the case. 

Have you ever heard about G-Form cases or portfolios? It is really something increadible. They tested if the G-Forms can protect iPads. The iPad falls down from some 100.000 feet and is not broken and continues working. Another way of marketing for both brands. Click for link

Luxury Buyers vs Luxury Brands

Key Achievements in This Class

Before this class I always thought that I was good at digital staff. I quickly realized that I knew not a lot about it. My perception about digital was in some respect differerent. 
I got more than I was expecting in this class. I understood the role of digital marketing for business in general and specifically for hotel industry. I discovered a wide range of digital products and tools. I found out that I was completely ignoring on web pages some details which are actually important. Thanks to this class I know how to use correctly the google search engine, to embed files and videos. Now I can be proud of the fact that I can use Prezi, create a blog, post different information on my own blog, use issuu, create slideshare etc. 
In the nearest future, I am sure that all what I learned from this class will help me to succeed in my professional and personal life.

iPad 3

We are all expecting iPad 3 as today we are used to innovations from any brand, especially from Apple.

So, when is the iPad 3 coming? According to the rumours (according to the supply chain in Taiwan) it should come on February 24 of this year. Why February 24? First, it is the birthday of Steve Jobs secondly Apple launches its new products usually on Fridays which is the February 24 this year. 

If iPad 3 borns its first shipment may exceed 4 million units which may oblige its employees to take not more than five days off during the holidays. 

It is just rumours for the moment, it may come only next year, but why not to have such a beautiful iPad and maybe more performant than iPad 2 this year for Job's birthday. At least this might be one of the ways of marketing campaign for iPad 3.
