Today's Story Highlights

Mac Birthday Video Stars iPhone
Unlike in 1984, when the Macintosh was introduced, there weren't any
Apple ads at the Super Bowl this year. Instead, on the day after the
Massacre in the Meadowlands, the company raised the curtain on a 127-
second video celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Mac -- on YouTube.
Video for the project was shot entirely with iPhones over a 36-hour
period on Jan. 24, the 30th birthday of the Mac.

Internet Domain Names Get More Character
Tuesday ushered in a series of generic top-level domains (gTLDs) that
for the first time in Web history, include Arabic, Chinese and Russian
characters. The new gTLDs -- which are the suffixes to Web addresses,
such as ".com" and ".net" -- were approved by the Internet Corporation
for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN. ICANN invited applications for
new domain names in 2012, at a cost of $185,000 a pop.

Target Fiasco Shines Light on Supply Chain Attacks
The holiday data breach at Target was opened up with stolen credentials
from a vendor in the company's supply chain, according to reports that
surfaced last week. That kind of attack is getting more and more common
these days. "About 80 percent of data breaches originate in the supply
chain," said Torsten George, vice president of marketing for Agiliance.

Managing Big Data
The interaction of connected consumer electronics and digital media is
creating vast and limitless amounts of user data, now commonly coined
"Big Data." Many new business models are forming around these data, but
for advertising, data have always been at the core of its business. Data
of all varieties and volumes enable stakeholders to invest
proportionally to the value of their media assets.
