Exclusive – Scotiabank Podcasts!

Exclusive
A little bird let me know that Scotiabank has just launched a podcast for the bank called The Money Clip.
(As an aside, I’m wondering if, given Apple’s aggressive trademark sabre rattling we should call it an “audiocast” from here on out. Wait I know, how about “Zunecast”? 🙂
Scotiabank’s Michael Seaton tells me that they’ve submitted the feed iTunes but will likely not appear there for another day or two as it apparently takes them a while to approve things. Right now it is streaming and downloadable from the page.
The first series from The Money Clip is on Mutual Fund Investing, split into three segments for beginners, intermediates and advanced investors. Part one is available now. Part two goes up next week and the series continues. Michael believes this to be a first for a North American financial institution.

QotD – What Was Your Internet "Wow" Moment?

Last week in the first session of my CMA Emarketing Course we talked at length about our “Wow” moments on the Internet. People had some really interesting stories of how the Internet blew them away, or made it possible to do something that would have been utterly impossible without the Net.

So I now ask you…

What was your Internet “wow” moment?

Add you wows after the click…

Nakama Is Interesting

Nakama
Earlier today Ambient Vector launched their new mobile service, Nakama. We think they’re interesting. Judge for yourself.
One Degree: Who needs you?
Nakama lets anyone with a mobile phone capture, publish, share and view pictures and videos. We want to get everyone with a cameraphone using Nakama, and sharing their pictures and videos.
One Degree: Why do they need you?
Nakama is (to us) the easiest way to share pictures and videos: something almost everyone with a cameraphone wants to do. We’re also really focused on entertaining people… phones today have great displays and fast networks, so they’re an obvious choice to kill some time, browse a few pictures, watch a few videos, and be entertained, and this is something Nakama is especially good at.
One Degree: Why are you interesting?
We’re not sure that we are :-), but we’re flattered you asked. We’re a small team, with great backers, and great people. We’re also solving a whole lot of hard technology problems that are hidden by our focus on making the user experience as clean and simple as possible.
One Degree: How do you make money?
