As in 2008, none of this is new technology. Different forms of old technology? Maybe. But not new. Still, knowing about the technology is one thing. Wrapping Big Ideas around it, and having the skills to seamlessly execute are another. As it’s impossible to focus on everything, we’re still culling this list down — alot will have to do with where our clients are looking to experiment.
- Digital Paper
- Audio/Sound Cones
- QR Code Applications (yes again, we think there are a lot more creative uses for these that haven’t been tried)
- Interactive TV and Convergence (iTV)
- Wii/XBOX/TV Application Development (not new - but building out this capability is new)
- GPS/RFID – related to message targeting; GPS targeted outdoor messaging
- Digital/Interactive Outdoor
- Avatar technologies
- Hologram technology and marketing uses
- New and inventive analytics tools
More to come — but for now here are those that are being considered.

If you read the last post, you will recall that we were planning on experimenting with mobile marketing and QR codes to promote our own brand at Interact 2008 - a large Washington DC based Interactive conference. I’m happy to report that our experiment was a smashing success! Of course the audience - full of interactive marketing professionals - was perfect for experimenting with mobile marketing.
More than 1/3 of the total event attendees engaged with our mobile application.

While the mashable logo mobile application was a hit — we were surprised by the number of people who did not know what a QR or 2D code could do — especially given the makup of the audience. We realized that while some in the industry might consider this an aging technology - the reality is that there is still time to get in the game by testing ane experimenting.
