In this episode number 89, Joe and Robert discuss LinkedIn and Google news this week. LinkedIn limits your right to download contacts and, alas, Google+ is no more (we think). In other news, AOL releases some new content marketing research that may not be about content marketing and we find out that the inbound marketing economy really has nothing to do with inbound marketing. Rants and raves include a McKinsey report and deals from Univision and HBO. This week's #ThisOldMarketing example of the week: Flight Centre.
