Another interesting discussion Stan.
What Ian discusses is one step beyond what Yahoo! and Google already do with more passive user profiling. However, from a personal perspective I hate to be “marketed at”, I always want the (illusion?) of being in control of how I research my purchasing. If only I could opt in to ONLY the ads I want, rather than be bombarded with irrelevant ad noise from all other channels - perhaps when proximity marketing like bluetooth id recognition take off this will start to happen in ambient media, and the likes of Facebook is rapidly opening people up and sharing their personal details. After all, who really minds seeing relevant ads on Gmail or Yahoo!7 mail these days?

Hi Stan and Ian,

Pureprofile is a refreshing conceptual display of customers and Marketers ability to connect on-line. It sure beats the heavy handed sales approach. A direct approach which enables the customer to select and work with the companies they choose to be associated with. A pull marketing strategy instead of a push. Great.
