Saving the Yellow Pages

Chris Smith wrote for Search Engine Land " What Could Save the Yellow Pages? 10 Ideas ".

Inovation, a way to fight the crisis

An interesting model to increase employee´s awareness and to push for their ideas and creativity, is the scheme implemented by Holmen and reported in the last Holmen Report.
