I'm tickled to be part of a teleconference with Seth Godin to discuss his new book, Meatball Sundae, and what it says about the "new marketing." In a word, don't pile the newest kind of whipped cream (blogs, podcasts, video) onto your current marketing strategy... just because it sounds easy or cool.
The results can be, er, unsatisfactory and make a gooey mess. Jackie Huba demonstrates. Of course, there's more to the book than that. This one is a great read.

I really liked Seth's book and it made me think of Yellowpages.com I believe it is a real meatball sundae for advertisers. Unlike search engines, You are locked into an annual contract. There is no information online regarding their pricing. I think AT&T is using an out of date business model with whipped cream.
