Welcome to the Ideasicle Podcast, where we untangle the mysteries of the elusive idea.
Today, reality is taking a back seat. We are exploring a fascinating emerging category for marketing ideas called "augmented reality," also known as AR. We are very interested in augmented reality at Ideasicle because it’s such an unbridled expanse for new marketing ideas. And as the proliferation of smartphones, from Android to iPhone to everything in-between, continues, augmented reality is fast becoming a mainstream phenomenon. So it’s important as marketers that we understand it.
