In this week’s episode
Robert ponders whether our jobs are what we signed up for – and what we can do about it. On the news front, we review the top U.S. media trends, including what may be in store for local newspapers, television, and Facebook. We also explore Edison Research’s new findings on Facebook’s smartphone domination, and some current opportunities in podcasting. Our rants and raves include last-click attribution and Walkers Crisps; then we wrap up with an example of the week from Williams Sonoma.
