Seth's Blog: on the the 'Is Branding Dead?' debate:"

Seth's Blog: A Little Like Francisco Franco: "Chris Busch wants me to wade into the 'Is Branding Dead?' debate:"

Godin adds three short points to the debate:

Summary:

1) The number of massive mega brands and their value is shrinking
2)The number of new micro-brands is exploding
3)There's a difference between brands and branding: Brands exist whether you want them to or not...Branding is ill-defined, usually vacuous, often expensive and totally unpredictable.

The original article By James Surowiecki:
Wired 12.11: The Decline of Brands: "The Decline of Brands : Sure, there are more brands than ever. But they're taking a beating - or, even worse, being ignored. Who's to blame? A new breed of hyperinformed superconsumers. (That's right - you!) "
