PINTEREST LAUNCHES NEW TYPES OF 'PROMOTED PINS', NEW TARGETING: We've been writing about Pinterest's impressive growth stats, and this week the company announced a major update of its marquee ad product, 'Promoted Pins.' These changes go a long way to transforming the ad unit into a full-fledged brand- and direct-marketing tool on par with Facebook's promoted posts, or promoted tweets. In this case, the advertiser ends up footing the bill for an ad that is served but not actually seen. Another method involves simply hiding the ad or covering over it with a white space. One method involves blocking ads from being 'called', or loaded, when a website is visited, which means publishers' ability to collect ad revenue is impacted.

It created a live branded video in which a character named 'Nature Man' was dropped in a virtual forest, and Twitch users could get him to perform actions through chat commands. Although games are frequently advertised on the platform in ads that play ahead of video-game broadcasts, Old Spice took a different approach. Twitch has over 100 million monthly viewers as of year-end 2014, and has begun experimenting with brand advertising, featuring campaigns that appeal to its demographic, which tilts toward young, tech-savvy males. Twitch also announced that it was launching a 'reduced delay' feature, which means the ~1.5 million video-game broadcasters on the platform will be able to chat live as they play with less latency. Late last week, Twitch announced it would be available as a channel on Roku video-streaming boxes (it's already available on iOS and Android, as well as TV-connected devices like Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Chromecast, and Amazon Fire TV).
