That’s because it’s only going to get more digital. The pace isn’t slowing down—it’s accelerating. Here’s one example how: More video has been uploaded to YouTube in the last 2 months than if ABC, NBC and CBS had been airing new content 24/7/365 since 1948; the date, by the way, when ABC first started beaming its signal into American households. But wait. That’s just the way many think about digital today—in terms of the “desktop.” What’s just around the corner is yet another sea change: the Web that’s not dominated by mobile. Reports now estimate that “mobile will take over the Web as soon as 2014”—in just 4 years. When they predict it will be 2x the size of the desktop Internet. How? The continued adoption of 3G and smart phones is a big reason. So is the unquenchable demand for the iPhone, iTouch, iTunes, and now iPad ecosystem of digital consumer content.

Case studies are not isolated, sometimes it can involve the same participates with vastly different outcomes. Case study traps are: Easy to isolate a case study, when in reality it is fluid The actors can cross over and reference good and bad experiences that influence their reaction to your product Customers want to know that their painful experience will not be repeated with others – this drives social activism “Comcast Must Die” Focus on delivering the best experience possible and you will not fall into that trap
