      Brand Advocacy Quotient: the new 2.0 metric
      As online marketers continue to shift toward social media strategies and 2.0 tactics, it is imperative to have the type of success metrics expected in online marketing applied to social media. While lifetime value of the customer, and return on investment remain the bottom line metrics for overall online marketing success, the social media elements of an integrated campaign now need their own specific metrics. Media ratings company Nielsen Online just-launched the Digital Strategic Services (DSS) group for the purpose of monitoring social media online. This division of Nielsen will be focusing on developing strategic plans to manage brands' online reputations. A core focus will be the Nielsen Online "Brand Advocacy Quotient," or BAQ score.The BAQ will be a function of product experience

      0-Day-Patch – An new Metric for Security?
      The Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich released a study at Blackhat, which is definitely worth looking into. Now, let's be serious: They looked at a metric they call 0-Day-Patch being the number of patches a vendor is able to release at the day of the public disclosure of a new vulnerability. We could discuss again the value of this metric but it definitely shows how well responsible disclosure works for a vendor. They then took Apple and Microsoft to be compared over 6 years and We find global and vendor specific trends and measure the effectiveness of the patch development process of two major software vendors. So, I just want to take the pictures. The following picture shows the percentage of vulnerabilities that are open for longer than a given period:   The second graph

      More metric excitement
      Is it wrong to be so excited about poetry? I can't help but feel it is. There are going to be a lot of posts like this as I work my way through Stephen Fry's book The Ode Less Travelled, and I'm still only in the first section on Metre. There's Rhyme, Form, and Diction and Poetics Today still to come, I'm afraid. Usually I like to read a book, let it settle for a bit and then write about it but I am so enthralled by this that it is spilling out of me.This morning on the train as I opened it and realised the section I had got to the evening before I felt the excitement bubble up inside me like a child who has been given a present - the metre of Anglo-Saxon poetry! There, aren't you just as excited at the thought?Okay, I'll admit I think I probably need help. However, it really is interestin

      Metric prefix conversions
      To express a quantity in a different metric prefix that what it was originally given, all we need to do is skip the decimal point to the right or to the left as needed. Notice that the metric prefix "number line" in the previous section was laid out from larger to smaller, left to right. This layout was purposely chosen to make it easier to remember which direction you need to skip the decimal point for any given conversion. Example problem: express 0.000023 amps in terms of microamps. 0.000023 amps (has no prefix, just plain unit of amps) From UNITS to micro on the number line is 6 places (powers of ten) to the right, so we need to skip the decimal point 6 places to the right: 0.000023 amps = 23. , or 23 microamps (µA) Example problem: express 304,212 volts i

      Metric notation
      The metric system, besides being a collection of measurement units for all sorts of physical quantities, is structured around the concept of scientific notation. The primary difference is that the powers-of-ten are represented with alphabetical prefixes instead of by literal powers-of-ten. The following number line shows some of the more common prefixes and their respective powers-of-ten: Looking at this scale, we can see that 2.5 Gigabytes would mean 2.5 x 109 bytes, or 2.5 billion bytes. Likewise, 3.21 picoamps would mean 3.21 x 10-12 amps, or 3.21 1/trillionths of an amp. Other metric prefixes exist to symbolize powers of ten for extremely small and extremely large multipliers. On the extremely small end of the spectrum, femto (f) = 10-15, atto (a) =

      Metric en México
      Por un momento se sintió calma en la Ciudad de México y dejaron de anunciarse conciertos día tras día, pero parece ser que regresa la oleada de conciertos y estos coinciden con el comienzo de las vacaciones de verano. Y no precisamente para el verano, pero sí para los últimos días de semestre escolar, se anuncia la segunda visita de Metric a México, al Vive Cuervo Salón, para el 25 de Abril. La preventa está anunciada para el 2 de Abril. Los precios aún no se anuncian. Gracias a Sofía.

      Grams of Grahams! Recipes in Metric
      When it comes to recipes I love to try new things. I read recipe books as if they were novels, sometimes while sitting cross legged on the kitchen floor. American recipes tend to stick with our traditional 'cups' and 'teaspoons' while European recipes use grams more often than not. Every time I have to convert to metric I go online to a conversion site and 'do the math' before I can start to prepare the food item.If you are also are tired of converting, an affordable suggestion might be Escali digital scales. An investment that is under twenty five dollars that is both beautiful and functional! I found they frequently have the capacity of weighing up to 5,000 grams (11 lbs.) and some even have a built in Tare feature that allows you to weigh your food in a bowl or container without

      Is FICO a Good Metric for Originators?
      Richard Bitner recently released a book about the mortgage meltdown from the perspective of an originator of Mortgages.  The book, entitled Greed, Fraud & Ignorance: A Subprime Insider’s Look at the Mortgage Collapse, gives investors some food for thought in considering the faults in the originate, securitize, and issue to investors chain that mortgages went through.  The Prince is intrigued by Mr. Bitner’s book mainly because he seems to confirm much of what investors assumed and observed about originators once mortgage securities began to plummet in value.  Richard Bitner spent 14 years in the mortgage industry, five of those as the president of Kellner Mortgage Investments, a subprime mortgage company. He was also a Director for GMAC Residential Fundin

      The Missing Metric: Measuring Shelf-Space Profitability
      The shelf may well be the most precious real estate in the consumer-retail value chain: In some categories, as much as 80 percent of all purchase decisions are made at the point of sale. Regardless of how much effort went into promotion or product design, the shelf is the point where the consumer meets the retailer, the brand, and the product. The outcome of all those relationships and the buying decision depends entirely on what happens halfway down Aisle 2. Yet surprisingly little is known about that interaction. In fact, many crucial shelf-space questions are still surprisingly difficult for retailers and manufacturers to answer on the basis of anything but gut instinct. How much is this store’s shelf space worth? What products and brands would make the most profitable use of my space? What products and assortments drive the greatest growth at the shelf? How do I make sure that these are the products my customer wants? These essential questions are still very difficult for retaile

      Who keeps the metric system down? The EU, the EU...
      The metric/imperial debate has largely been decided: most countries of the world with the exception of the US, and, you guessed it, Burma and Liberia, officially use the metric system of weights and measures. Being raised in Canada, where the metric system has been in place since the days of The Great Trudeau, The Shark Book authors grew accustomed to being struck with a meter-stick for misbehaving at school rather than the yard-stick, which was the weapon of preference for the homeroom teachers of their parents’ generation. However, if you were to ask a random person on a Toronto street how much he or she weighed, the response (if you were to get one that didn’t consist of a finger to your eye, or a curt “Drop dead creep”) would probably be in pounds. Somehow, the metric system just isn’t a comfortable fit when discussing weight or the length of certain appendages of import – those spammers sending out emails on how different a gentleman's life might be with 12 inche

      Drastic Measures on the Road: Metric vs. English
      In my teens, I was so enamoured by hiking and biking that I missed the seemingly obligatory fascination with cars.  Once I was a bit older and wiser – and still without a driver’s license – I took the environmentally friendly stance of supporting public transportation for many years.  Finally, I succumbed to practicalities and became licensed, insured, and burdened with car payments. Then came the hard part.  I’m not talking about learning how to drive a stick shift, although that was no picnic, believe me.  And the question of whether to fill my tank with gasoline, diesel, or salad oil was thankfully resolved by my country’s dogged pursuit to own and burn every last drop of foreign oil.  No, even suffering steering wheels on the right side pales in comparison to the dreaded road conversions. Get out your calculators, class, and let’s go crazy.  If a car that gets 23 miles per gallon leaves Seattle, Washington at noon and drives north for 200 miles, how many kilometre

      These have been around for a while, but I've neglected to share them for one reason or another. I blame communism, or maybe capitalism, or perhaps terrorism. Regardless, here they are now for your listening enjoyment. I can't say much about Metric that hasn't already been said and read a million times, but I'm thinking that you guys will really love how Emily Haines' voice sounds on these tracks. Somehow she manages sweet, edgy, tough, and vulnerable all at the same time, while still sounding amazing.I've put a little star beside my two favourites.
