We had a great Cincinnati I-marketing Group meeting this past Thursday. My thanks go out to all those who attended for coming and participating in the discussion, as well as Ed Estes of Web Media Tools for hosting us. Our next meeting will probably be in August or September.
Here are links to news articles I went through and we discussed at the meeting

Google insists its Android phone is still on track: http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/google-insists-its-android-phone-is-still-on-track-852884.html
It was really enlightening and satisfying for me to see that online ad spending will exceed TV this year in the UK, and in a few years that will likely be the case in the USA as well. For all of you out there still doubting the Internet as an effective advertising medium... WAKE UP!!!
Jeff Bezos, the founder and CEO of Amazon.com participated in the $15 million round of funding for Twitter, which had over a million unique visitors in May. Twitter and Facebook are really hot Internet marketing topics right now.
