\u00a0publicity about Xbox.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The high expectation and disappointment was for facebook.\u00a0Poor presentation, after watching the wizards from Google, nothing new, only basic information about the use of profiles and pages for commercial use.\u00a0Whoever has spent 30 minutes with that already knew.\u00a0The speaker also failed to answer questions properly\u00a0from the audience.<\/p>\n<p>My feeling is that Google is one step ahead from the rest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had the pleasure of attending to a magnificent exhibition about technology and marketing in London on 21st and 22nd of September 2011, Ad Tech London.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[57,67],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1507","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business-3","category-talks","cat-57-id","cat-67-id"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1507","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1507"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1507\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1636,"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1507\/revisions\/1636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1507"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1507"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bernatriera.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1507"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
