Welcome to episode #223 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. This is also episode #36 of Media Hacks. We're finally back with a new episode of Media Hacks. Chris Brogan and Hugh McGuire join me for our semi-regular chat about all things media. In this conversation, we look at everything from AOL's acquisition of TechCrunch to the value of data and web analytics. In the mix of that, we hit on the usual topics of publishing, marketing, advertising, mobile, tablets and more. We also have a chat about Yahoo and why they now consider Facebook such a huge competitor. Things are moving fast and faster. Enjoy the conversation...
