Torna l’iPad Magazine “La Vita Nòva” con un nuovo appuntamento alla scoperta del futuro

 gruppo24ore-324On line su App Store il nuovo numero del magazine digitale per iPad del Sole 24 ORE 

La Vita Nòva”, il magazine digitale progettato e disegnato appositamente per iPad dalla redazione di Nòva24 - il settimanale del Sole 24 ORE dedicato a ricerca e innovazione - torna con un nuovo numero, disponibile gratuitamente su App Store, in cui continua il viaggio alla scoperta del nuovo linguaggio dell'informazione su tablet. Questa volta puntando l’attenzione sull’evoluzione dei fumetti nell'era digitale.

Dopo aver infatti sperimentato nuove forme alternative di scrittura prima e di lettura poi, in questo numero la redazione de “La Vita Nòva” indaga, nella sua sezione più interattiva - “Esperimenti” -, le nuove opportunità che l’evoluzione della scrittura su tablet può dare all’arte narrativa del fumetto. Un’ampia inchiesta che si conclude con l’esperimento “Giochiamo a balloon” in cui i lettori potranno scegliere una delle tavole disegnate da Domenico Rosa e completare il fumetto inserendo i testi attraverso la tastiera dell'iPad. Il risultato sarà una storia unica, che l'autore potrà scegliere di condividere online con pochi, intuitivi passaggi.

La rivista, nata per esplorare le opportunità offerte dalla tecnologia, raccogliere le novità che emergono dalla scienza, raccontare le visioni e le realizzazioni di imprenditori, ricercatori e artisti, ha riscosso un grande successo di pubblico registrando oltre 25.000 download.

In questo nuovo numero “La Vita Nòva” offre un ricco menù anche nelle altre sezioni. Dalla storia degli algoritmi che muovono la finanza mondiale, alle prove d'innovazione del sistema bancario italiano; dalle ultime scoperte delle neuroscienze su come "pensano" le piante, alle provocazioni della street art; dal grafico interattivo con la mappa mondiale dei paesi che inquinano di più, al video che insegna come fare home banking in modo sicuro.

Non mancano poi le consuete rubriche sulle migliori apps per iPad, sul valore della condivisione e sugli elementi della tavola periodica. E un articolo-cruciverba dedicato al fondatore della Apple Steve Jobs.

Il nuovo numero de “La Vita Nòva”, sponsorizzato da MONTE DEI PASCHI DI SIENA, è scaricabile gratuitamente dall’App Store, ed è sostenuto da una campagna pubblicitaria realizzata dall'agenzia H-art e pianificata sui mezzi del Gruppo 24 ORE. La raccolta pubblicitaria è curata da WebSystem, la divisione digital della concessionaria del Gruppo 24 ORE.

For the first time in Poland, Business Ad Network has conducted research on banner time emission

Advertisements published in the upper part of a site had the longest emission time on the homepages of internet sites, while skyscrapper and rectangle forms of adverts were unrivalled on the features pages – such are the results of the Business Ad Network research, which was based on Alenty – the French technology measuring the time of banner projection on the user’s screen. 

- According to Alenty, the knowledge of how much time is spent on viewing different size banners on various sites helps the marketer to optimize an advertising campaign even by as much as 20%. It also helps to adjust emission place to time of the presented animation – says Jarosław Śliżewski, Board Member of BAN – As it may happen that an agency comes up with a long, sophisticated animation that will have no chance of reaching the reader, because it is emitted in the place, where the reader spends only half the time needed to understand the message of the advert.

Research results 
Research on banner time emission was conducted by internet advertising network BAN (Business Ad Network) in Money.pl and Wyborcza.biz with respect to three formats: billboard, rectangle and skyscrapper. The banners within the researched were viewed by 140 thousand internet users during 726 hours of emission. On average each banner was displayed on the user’s screen for 15 seconds. The research shows that billboards guarantee the highest viewing efficiency (over 90.5%), while rectangle banners are viewed longest (16.1 second). 

Emission (i.e. which animation part of the banner was watched)
- billboard - 90.5% 
- skyscrapper – 76.1%
- rectangle – 72.9%.

Time  (average display time of the whole/ part of the banner animation on the computer screen)
- rectangle – 16.1 sec.
- billboard – 14.3 sec.
- skyscraper – 14.1 sec.

Methodology
Alenty technology, which measures the time of banner display on the computer screens, takes into account the size and resolution of screens. If there was only a part of the banner displayed on the screen, the system added some time; however, when the Internet user failed to use the mouse or the keyboard for 10 seconds – the system did not count the time.

Compared to the average results on the French market, where this kind of research is applied on a large scale, advertisements within BAN network have a similar time of viewing, but the effectiveness is higher by 17%. The research was conducted by means of Smart server, which distributes the Alenty technology.

Polish paper invites young journalists to investigate championship readiness

As the host of the next UEFA Championship, Poland is eager to shake off old communist-era stereotypes and prove that the new football stadiums are not the only reason Poland has been chosen to host the games in 2012. 

Poland's second largest newspaper, Gazeta Wyborcza, is doing a bit of investigative journalism to see how prepared the country is for next year's football championships. It has launched a project called Mission 21, in which the 21 biggest cities in Poland are explored and investigated by student journalists.

Mission 21 has a twist - none of the journalists are Polish. The young journalists are all students at City University London, and represent 11 different nationalities.
