2006 LIST OF '10 STORIES THE WORLD SHOULD HEAR MORE ABOUT'Concerned that some issues continue not to receive sustained media attention or slip off the radar screen, the United Nations Department of Public Information (DPI) has unveiled a new list of "Ten Stories the World Should Hear More About."
"The media and the UN share an interest in getting information about what is happening in our world to the public," says Shashi Tharoor, Under-Secretary-General for Communications and Public Information. "But journalists are often inundated with stories, all competing for their — and the public's — attention. Our aim is to make it easier for them to see that important issues do not fade from the headlines."
The list, covers a wide range of stories — from the plight of asylum seekers and refugees in ongoing conflicts to earthquake relief and post-war reconstruction — that received little or no play in the world media.

It is the latest twist in the budding niche of mobile marketing. Sometime
in the next few weeks, French billboards will be able to speak to your
mobile phone – but only with your permission. When participating users
are near an active advertisement – it could be part of a billboard or a
bus shelter poster – their phones will automatically receive a notice
that a digital file can be downloaded. The information could range from
a ring tone or short video to a discount voucher.'With this project, we are really starting to create the personalised
digital city,' said Albert Asseraf, director of strategy, research and
marketing at JCDecaux, the outdoor- advertising company behind the project.

Could be good for electioneering, especially on election day " Hey you!, have you voted yet? Vote for me!".
I like the idea of a 'personalised digital city' especially if you can hit the delete button for things you do not like!
