Escape Game Shown Off For Google Glass, But Games On Your Face Seem To Have Limited Appeal

Screen Shot 2013-07-29 at 11.10.26 AMA new game for Google Glass claiming to be "the first Google Glass game" (it's not, Battleship clone got demoed earlier this month) offers a look at what kind of things might be possible for developers building these kinds of experiences on Google's unique wearable platform. In a word, it looks simple, and is reminiscent of the old, very basic games that would come pre-installed on your black and white Nokia feature phone like Snake.

Target pursues college students with Bullseye University

The young girl in T-shirt and shorts paces up and down her dorm room, occasionally stopping to vault herself on top of the bunk bed and then back down again.

"Who finished the pizza?" she seems to ask no one in particular. "I did."

This millennial's musings would seem typical of any bored college student, if it weren't for the thousand or so people watching her online.

For four days last week, Target live-streamed five YouTube personalities as they mused, joked, ate, slept and generally passed the time in makeshift dorm rooms outfitted with products sold by the Minneapolis-based retailer.

Not quite commercial, not quite reality, Target's digital experiment, dubbed Bullseye University, represents its most ambitious attempt to penetrate the digital universe of college students. By scrolling over each room on BullseyeUniversity.com, viewers could also activate pop-up boxes that give information about the merchandise and links to purchasing them on Target.com.

Brian Kelly, a retail consultant and former top marketing executive at Sears, says live-streaming millennials interacting with Target products gives Bullseye University an air of relevance "that's not as creepy" as other voyeuristic projects.

"Part of the message is the medium," Kelly said. "And if you can find a way to drive commerce, then why not?"

If Bullseye University seems a bit like "Real World," MTV's long-running reality show, well, that's the point. (MTV actually sponsored a concert on the site.) To connect with digital-savvy college students, Target officials say they needed to move beyond commercials and circulars and focus on what resonates with the younger set.

"The millennial guest is different from other generations, especially their media consumption," Senior Vice President of Marketing Rick Gomez said in an interview. "They are all over digital, mobile, social. . So we have invested a significant part of the back-to-college campaign to the digital space."

For retailers, the back-to-school shopping season is the second-most-important period in the year behind Christmas, and college students drive most of the spending. The National Retail Federation last week estimated that back-to-college spending will hit $45.8 billion, nearly two-thirds of the entire season. Though the Retail Federation says fewer students will live in dorms this upcoming school year, about 42 percent of families will spend an average of $104.76 on new bedding, small refrigerators and microwaves, up from $100.27 last year.

Target, of course, wants to increase its share of this market. The retailer has added

200 products to the seasonal back-to-school sections in more than half of its U.S. stores, including items designed to appeal to college students on both an aesthetic and functional level: neon-colored bedding and microwavable bowls that prevent accidental spillage of those life-sustaining ramen noodles.

But Target is also after something much more elusive: lifetime loyalty.

"It's really important for us to build that relationship with these future guests early on," said Gomez, a former top marketing executive with MillerCoors. "If you get them into Target and understand the brand and what we have to offer, we can create guests for life.

"When you are going off to college, it's sort of a new life stage," he said. "It's the first time you are moving out, you're on your own, and moving into a dorm or first apartment. As a brand, it's important to be there for the guest as they are shifting to a new life stage."

But converting millennials into long-term Target shoppers requires more than just a quirky slogan or a free product. Research shows that millennials are more immune to traditional marketing tactics. They watch far less television than other generations, instead relying on peer recommendations and social-media content to purchase something on their smartphones and tablets.

Carol Spieckerman, president of the Newmarketbuilders consulting firm, said Bullseye University feels more like a digital experiment than a coherent marketing campaign aimed at college students. "It feels a little disjointed," she said. "Retailers are running lots and lots of experiments at the same time in their stores. What Target has done is to take this multi-testing approach and apply it to digital, which gives Target much more flexibility but also makes it much more risky."

According to a report by Barkley, a marketing agency, and Boston Consulting Group, about 70 percent of millennials say they feel more excited about doing something if "my friends agree with what I want to do."

Sony and Panasonic partnering to create next-gen optical disk, 300GB DVDs inbound

Many of us have ditched out CD-ROMs and DVD players in favour of the cloud, or at least memory sticks and cards, but Sony and Panasonic want to change that.

The two companies announced earlier today that they?re partnering up to create the next generation of optical disks. And these won?t be your granddad?s CDs either. The two companies are looking at creating high capacity disks with minimum 300GB of storage.

The optical disk has some very nice advantages when it comes to long term memory storage, being resistant to both water and dust, and highly resilient if kept in a proper case. These attributes make a high-density optical disk a very good choice when it comes to backing up large amounts of data.

While these disks are designed for professional products and companies, we may eventually see them trickle down to regular consumers. Sony and Panasonic said they?re aiming for a 2015 launch for the new optical disk format.
