Economy
Adds 175k Jobs, Unemployment Up to 6.7% - On Friday, the Labor
Department reported the economy gained 175,000 jobs in February. The
consensus among economists had been for a 149,000 increase in jobs for
the month. The unemployment rate ticked up a notch to 6.7%. In January,
the economy created just 129,000 new jobs. Fears of the cold weather's
impact on the job market in February were clearly misguided. Still, the
economy needs to generate around 200,000 jobs a ... http://ow.ly/2EuUGz

Comparing

There follows my Fund Strategy Polemic column for July. For all the talk
of a possible bubble in US technology stocks, the rise in the Nasdaq
over the past year is dwarfed by the surge in the Shanghai and Shenzen
stockmarket indices. Draw lines on the same graph representing
percentage change over the past year or so and the American index’s rise
seems ever so gentle. Of course things could change quickly. At the...

There
was a depressed economy after the horrors of the First World War. It
ended and folk wanted to celebrate and have fun. So there was a boom in
business. Then our government decided to bring Austerity. And we had the
worst bust for 100 years. Did absolutely nothing against the 1929
Depression that was caused by abroad by the failure of the stock
exchange called Wall Street in USA. The foodbanks back then were run by
the church as now, but were daily soup kitchens where a hot drink and a
stew and some bread were handed out by those who queued. Not one sign of
a restrictive voucher either.

How the Economy really works
I've had a number of discussions of an economic nature with people recently. These are prompted by recent elections, Eurozone issues (Greece, and so on), shenanigans around National Deficit/debt and general political policies.
What is clear from these discussions is most people don't really have much of a clue about Economics beyond running their own household budget, and their arguments are almost entirely based on extrapolating and scaling-up household finances to a National level.
This is fundamentally incorrect. Government economics is substantially different to household finances.
But most people believe they are broadly similar.
It's this ignorance that leads to people believing (and quoting) asinine statements like "the trouble with socialism is that, sooner or later, you run out of other people's money".
The real trouble is, unless you have studied or researched Economics, how you believe it works is almost certainly wrong. And the general public ignorance on the subject is reinforced because politicians (of all colours) and their pet news outlets, make statements about the economy which are deceptive or even untrue, but which play to the general public's incorrect perceptions and lack of understanding of the subject. Whether this is ignorance or deliberate manipulation is debatable.
A colleague sent me a link to this useful video which helps explain in a fairly short, digestible, and apolitical summary just what National Deficit is, and how monetary systems and Government spending really works.
Of course, there are those too steeped in political agendas to be rational, and who won't even try to understand this fully, or who will attempt to spin this to suit their agenda. These willfully-ignorant folks may be tempted to post hateful or politically motivated comments. Please understand that I will delete them!
Otherwise discussion is encouraged.
The video is US centric, but is valid for all sovereign currencies. It touches on, but doesn't fully explain, the Eurozone problems and other Economic issues, but it's a good starting point for further investigation.

How will Content be Copyright Protected on the "New Internet?"
There will be the traditional way, which most people don't understand, don't use correctly, and fail to respect anyway, and there will be the New way: using blockchain technology.
Why should we change? Well, for the 3 obvious reasons that counter-act the 3 problems mentioned above: it will not require 'understanding' or special procedures, and it will also automatically prevent the kinds of abuses that are typical today. Your rights are essentially embedded into the post, and any re-posting, sharing, etc. will automatically be credited back to the original source.
Getting that credit will be especially important when you have made the change to the Attention Economy. The attention that people give your work - anywhere on the new web - will earn you money, in the form of a cryptocurrency.
So this article talks about creators that are leading the way; in this case, a band that has used it simply to 'mark' their work. Not the whole enchilada, but an important first step!

The Attention Economy Explained in a Nutshell!
The old model was a four-course meal in the same restaurant. Today’s is a series of constant bite sized snacks all over town
Considering how "the old model" is less than five years ago, what we're seeing here is the shift from Desktop search (where we used to be rooted in one place) to mobile search and extensive Tablet use where the keyboard may not be the primary data input device.
Google's data shows why having the capability of capturing attention in consistent, bite-sized chunks can deliver more in a sustainable way than a 'big push' approach where content requires a show-length sit down to consume properly.
This does not just change how branding is done (the shift from "Place" in the 4ps to "Everywhere" in the 4Es) but also how content is created, its intent, style and approach.
To be clear, while search is certainly changing all the time in terms of capabilities, the change in marketing and branding happens because we are changing, and now use search differently.
h/t +Bronwyn White for surfacing this for me today.

Outside Voices: Why Mobile Advertising May Be All About Micro-Targeting Moments
Google
has done research on how people use their mobile phones, and when they
may be most receptive to hearing from marketers. It uncovered a
fundamental change: the old days of predictable, periodic media sessions
have been replaced by numerous short bursts of digital activity
throughout the day.

Using Blockchain technology to build the next Internet, and more
Many projects are sprouting up, and many more on the way. They, and this freeing up of Information from outdated constraints, have one thing in common:
"As diverse as these projects are, they all seek to reverse one toxic trend, which is that we lack “true agency” on the Internet. That is to say, all of the data we create online and all of the operations we execute are handled for us by centralized servers, most of which sit in massive data centers operated by corporations and government institutions. We depend on these servers for everything."
"The traditional solution, in both the physical and digital worlds, is to restrict access to a group of people whom you trust. In most cases, we trust Internet services because we assume that they possess the same priorities as we do or that we have the ability to hold them accountable for their transgressions."
"..why trust the technology that makes Bitcoin possible? In short, because it assumes everybody’s a crook, yet it still gets them to follow the rules. To understand how, you need to unpack what Bitcoin really is."
And that will also allow you to understand how these protocols can be used to remove this same Trust problem from our Governments and Corporations --making it nearly impossible to break rules, since the 'machines' that we can build to do this for us simply won't allow it.
