File Under “It’s About Freakin’ Time”! Thank you IAB for taking a step towards automating one of the mundane tasks that should not exist in our industry any longer!Hopefully it is not a witch hunt to try and pin discrepancies on the 3rd party ad servers, which has been the case for many years.

In a move that will surely help to further propel mobile display advertising, OMD, Omnicom’s media buying agency, has officially become the first [influential] agency to mandate that mobile publishers accept 3rd party ad serving tags and bill off of the 3rd party numbers.
Can I get an “amen!”

I could not agree more that the industry needs a new video standard. Amen to that. I interact with enough senior agency folks to know that we all want a new standard. So I’m not quite sure how the new effort from Publicis’ VivaKi launched without the collective support and participation of any of the [...]

As Advertising Week wraps up, two things are clearer than ever. First – the data exchange business is more embraced than ever before and is alive and kicking. Second, the data exchange business has a target on its back…and the FTC is aiming right at it.
Cookies are good, data is good, relevancy is good. Lack [...]
