Vogue and Conde Nast Launch Another Social Media Tool, but Do We Really Need It?
It's not exactly a secret that Conde Nast has been a little late to the whole Internet thing. Look no further than the fact that their most famous fashion title--Vogue, in case you weren't sure--only got a dot com a few years ago. So it makes sense the famed publisher is trying to make up for lost time. Today Conde Nast launched new social media tool "Social Sidekick." The in-house developed tool works as an aggregator for most-shared content from W, Style.com, Glamour, Self, Teen Vogue and Lucky. It sounds sort of fancy but all it actually means is that on those sites there will be a window at the bottom of the page, which splashes out popular content from the aforementioned sister sites--basically, it's an aggregator like any other aggregator on any other site. It's not a bad idea--especially from the advertising perspective--but it's certainly not groundbreaking, or as Business Insider says, "It's nice to look at, but it won't make a big difference to the bottom line."
