Internet & TV Convergence - Latest Nielsen Research

TV Viewing and Internet Use Converge


According to the The Nielsen TV/Internet Convergence Panel, the heaviest users of the Internet are also among the heaviest viewers of television: the top fifth of Internet users spend more than 250 minutes per day watching television, compared to 220 minutes of television viewing by people who do not use the Internet at all. Nielsen found that the reverse is true as well - the lowest consumers of television have the lowest usage levels for the Internet.

That would be great and much appreciated! Have you done any PR or Advertising work for clients in Canada?

I would love that! It does make a lot of sense to use social media. Canada is a little behind in terms of grasping the potential but I'm excited to be involved with it in such an early phase here. If you ever need a hand I would love to work with you on a project someday. I think it would be a blast :)

Just starting a Social Media Breakfast in both Calgary and Edmonton Alberta. I'm just starting my own social media and web development firm right now and doing work in both the US and Canada as well as working as Creative/Marketing Director for a Calgary based marketing agency called McQ Design Strategies. It's been kind of a nutty run for a little while but I'm still preaching the social media word :) Are you doing much in the way of social media work down there?

Hey Denise,

I signed up for the convergence quite some time ago but I guess never ended up getting connected with you. Just wanted to get that situation fixed. How are you doing? Anything wild going on in your world?

If you are a Mom, I am giving you back 10 minutes that you wish you had at 9:00 PM after the kids are down and then you are responsible for running your other business - The home!
Call me, I am at the office, if you like and I will share more - but not here. Steve

Yes - working Sunday morning on my new business. Thanks for checking in and straightening out the suburban curve. I have been working with Pixel Brothers on a project and made more trips in to Chicago (in the last two week) than I had in the last 5 years total. Drop me a line if you want to share thoughts... 630-444-2000 x 102

Denise, just called but your voicemail is full. Give me a ring on my cell 312-912-2837. I've done some research so we can have an interesting discussion.

Actually, I do have some Dark Horse comics. I'll take a raincheck on your husband's signature till I get my stuff out of storage. Let me know when you and Dave are ready to take the plunge into mobile. It could be a nice annuity stream.

Denise,
I'm a huge comic-book fan. Have thousands of them in mylar bags/boards. I've been thinking about how mobile and comic books have some great opportunities. Have you seen the comics on iPhone? How about a short chat?
- Hugh
