The Web site, supported by WKV, Inc., the parent of some of the site's sponsors and advertisers, takes advantage of Web 2.0 and streaming video technology to connect users with other members of the global marketing community.
"Most executives don't have time to read lengthy white papers about the newest trends in marketing," said Jamie Turner, the site's editor and founder. "We're using streaming video to provide quick, actionable information that can be put to use immediately. Plus, we're tapping into the Web 2.0 community by encouraging visitors to provide content to the site, similar to Wikipedia, YouTube and MySpace."
News about the site is spreading quickly among the global business community. A beta launch last week drew visitors from the U.K., Canada, India, Australia, Malaysia, Pakistan and Italy. Plans are for the Web site to continuously update the videos with new content on an ongoing basis.
