The emphasis echoes what I communicate every day in my work - display ads help search succeed and vice versa. Marketers are waking up to this, but there's still plenty of CMOs and the like who need futher convincing, at big Fortune 500 companie
• Eric resigns from is seat from the Apple board today. Interesting commentary about why, which is in principal how Apple and Google differ on vision. Oh yes and the FCC. All this 2 days before the new Android appears in stores. It's for the best.
