In the past 48 hours a number of important deals have been announced as happening or, on the horizon.
All have been carefully calculated and all have such a strong bearing on the direction - as to where AdTech is all heading.
There's been:
*Google's Acquiring Of Channel Intelligence.
*A Yahoo/Google Contextual Ad Deal.
And (by next week), there'll be announced:
*Facebook's Deal to Buy Microsoft's Atlas.
So, what's it all about?
Consider that it's about (both) the USER and the rationalizing of the world of RT (real time) 'intent' - for Buyers and Sellers.
Of MOST importance (news-wise), is that:
Google has not only 'simplified' Google's own ad system by announcing it's move to "enhance" and "upgrade" AdWords - Google is telling all, that for existing and new devices - PCs, laptops, tablets, smartphones, hybrid devices, mini-tablets, televisions & more (including DOOH), that the 'leader of the pack' is firmly anchoring the foundations of the future.
One User - One Buy (Or, Currency.)
Where targeted users (or,audiences) will be 'bid' for - not only across devices (as mentioned above), but across segments of or, across a total, global publisher (an all-inventory source), base! For viewable eCPM buys, any targeted audiences or, down to a single impression, by impression.
Think of DSP's, Exchanges, inventory sources (like Yahoo) and ultimately (for user intent), of a ONE independent Global OPEN Marketplace.
Always, only an opinion.
