If we think of the web as our first great tsunami of change then the mobile web will make our first storm feel like a spring shower. This @HaikuDeck (a great tool) explores thoughts on a mobile world.
Sometimes, another organizations PR missteps are an opportunity to learn how not to handle a PR crisis. Just ask the any of the hospitals and health systems that have been in the media the past few weeks with HIPAA violations for data beaches. And what I have seen from the healthcare consumer side in the coverage and their responses have been arrogance, apathy and really stupid responses by senior management. I mean really, “We had a panic button and security camera.” Does it matter in your response that the theft happened after hours? Or the, “We had 60 days under the law before we had to report it.” How do you think the public reads that answer of hiding behind regulations when their personal data is at stake? In an age of healthcare model evolution from provider-dominated models of decision making to consumer-directed models, those bygone days of being able to mismanage a PR crisis and response and get away with it are gone.

Patient experience and satisfaction is no longer a nice too have, but a got to have in the evolving consumer-centric healthcare market place. Consumers are paying more out of pocket and when consumers pay more they expect more.

To focus on supporting modern browsers, we are deprecating official compatibility of Google Analytics with Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) at the end of 2013. We decided to do this to both accelerate the pace at which we can innovate new product features, and to facilitate adoption of newer web technologies in the design of the Google Analytics product. Our ultimate goal is to provide a superior user experience for every GA user. As a note, we’ll of course continue to measure traffic from IE8 browsers to your website. We will continue to support the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer 9 or higher, Safari and other modern browsers. It is our hope that giving you more than 3 months to prepare for this change will minimize disruption to Google Analytics usage for you and your business. We will send further reminders prior to the deprecation at the end of the year, but we strongly advise you begin preparing and implementing plans for this change at your ear...
