The Future Of Marketing Is In A.R.

For those of you who don’t know what A.R. is I can explain.

Augmented Reality(A.R.) is the future of technology.  It is a blending of the digital world and the real world, where lines can be blurred so far it becomes difficult to tell the difference between them.  The Best example of this is in many of the AR apps available on todays smart phones.  Most use your phones camera and a combination of GPs and personal setting to provide augment information about the real world. Think like the terminators eyes.  When he looks at a person it automatically tells him what weapons they have and if they are a friend or foe.  In normal everyday life this will be used where you can point your phone at the front of a store and see what sales and or coupons they have going on. The uses are really limitless that was just one small example for marketing.  If you want to read more about how new tech has been advancing this industry check out the jump.

Nancy Pelosi Wants A Weiner Probe!

Well of course she does it has probably been a long time since she had one.  All that aside i think this is all just a ploy to get more votes in the coming elections.  Leave this man alone he messed up and he should be focusing on saving his marriage not his job or his reputation (both of the latter are already dead).

The blaze has burned 486 square miles of ponderosa pine forest, driven by wind gusts of more than 60 mph, since it was sparked May 29 by what authorities believe was an unattended campfire. Over twice the size of Chicago, the fire has become the second-largest in Arizona history.  It has cast smoke as far east as Iowa and forced some planes to divert from Albuquerque, N.M., some 200 miles (320km) away.

 I wonder if these cows even know of the impending doom.

I always loved Smokey the Bear he could make even the harshest messages seem lovable.
