Welcome to episode #286 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. It's a New Year... so what does that mean? Well, if you ask Avinash Kaushik (the Digital Marketing Evangelist at Google and author of the best-selling business books, Web Analytics - An Hour A Day and Web Analytics 2.0), us Digital Marketers are going to be doing more... a whole lot more in the coming year(s). As big and fast as Social Media has changed the way that brands engage with consumers, things are going to evolve all that much more as location, mobile and more converge in this massive evolution. There's no doubt that both Avinash and I are bullish on these new opportunities, so you're going hear a lot of excitement and agreement on this episode, but it's also filled with our passion and desire to see our industry change and evolve at a much quicker pace. Please allow me to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a very healthy and Happy New Year. Enjoy the conversation...
