Demystified: what a Digital Prophet does (via welcometobusinesstown)

Got to get my hands on one of these: Smart Pipe!

AOL pays Shingy a six-figure salary for “watching the future take shape across the vast online landscape.” A heroic inspiration to us all!

If you're wondering what a Digital Prophet at AOL does to justify his existence (and salary), here is video documentation. Today, David Shing, everyone's favorite tech clown stood before a rapt audience at the TNW Europe Conference 2014, and made up a lot of words.

Gibberish I tell you!

David Shing, AOL's "Digital Prophet", offers his insights into business analytics:

Click-thru rates is a rubbish concept, because the numbers are always so low.

I haven't had a television for 12 years...I think we want active television (not passive).

We need to build liquid content...

Are we the connection generation?  Will we build connections with people?

Taking tips from AOL's "Digital Prophet" David Shing for 2014:

"The Impact of Influence is impacting business"

"Location based physically can also be done digitally"

"Digital consumer of the future is really more human"

"Reacting not just to the story tbut to reactions to the story"

Pseudo-metrics

Skinny Jeans

A misplaced sense of self-entitlement*

Happy Halloween from the original social media guru!

All hail the new celebrity King of Social Media!

Someone’s about to end Ashton Kutcher’s reign as Social Media Douchlord King. What a pity! I miss the days when JT was trying to bring sexy back, not some website whose heyday was nearly a decade ago.
