One of the companies I’m looking forward to meeting at the Affiliate Summit East next month is Tatto Media. In a very short time, Tatto has managed to come out of nowhere and become the third largest ad network on the Internet. Tatto has achieved this through creating technologies that no other network have. What’s more, they don’t rest on their laurels.

I wrote about Tatto back in May and since then, they’ve added so many new features to their network that I need to write about them again. If you’re already a Tatto Media affiliate, then you’re already taking advantage of the new features. If you’re not an affiliate yet, here’s a breakdown on all the new stuff.

New Design for Reporting and Statistics – Reports and Statistics is even faster and more efficient than before. Data view pages can easily be searched and sorted accurately even with multiple pages of data.

Conversion Tracking Report – This report provides specific lead/sale information, including sub id, tracking info, transaction id, IP address, and payout, allowing you to quickly run sub id reports. While "info" in current tracking links will continue to work, it has been replaced with "aff_sub".

Updated Tracking Links – Updated tracking links that are easy to understand. Sub ID tracking has been updated as well as Source name added. Specify a Source name in the tracking url to easily drill-down and analyze performance in reports.

Offer Tiny URLs –You can shorten your tracking links with our own TinyURL. This is great for sending offers to your Twitter followers.

Browser Targeting – The Tatto Affiliate Network now can target offers to users based on their browser. This will redirect users to receive offers designed for mobile devices including iPhones and thus increase your conversion rates.

Creative Manager – A valuable feature that quickly generates tracking code with creatives, making it simple for you to include the creative you prefer with the offer-specific tracking url. Also new features to browse and preview creatives.

Suppression List – Updated suppression lists to better support email marketers.

Refer a Friend – Enhanced Refer a Friend feature to reward you for introducing friends into our network.

Improved Stats API – Updated functions and documentation to make working with our stats API even easier.

All the previous features that made Tatto such a great affiliate network, like the Proprietary Tracking Technology and Self Serve Interface that allows you to place your own cookie and tracking pixel are still there. These new features just put the icing on the cake.

The number of affiliate offers has increased significantly since May and they’re still all 100% in-house deals with payouts among the highest in the industry. Speaking of payouts, Tatto pays their publishers weekly. Tatto Media welcomes affiliates and publishers from all over the world – you don't need to live in the USA to apply.

New 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia – My Next Car

Posted: 29 Jul 2009 02:58 PM PDT

458-3

It’s been a while since I did a car post on John Chow dot Com. They were always quite popular because I wrote about fancy sport cars instead of minivans. Today, I would like to introduce what I hope to be my next car, the Ferrari 458 Italia. This is Ferrari’s replacement for the out going F430.

The Ferrari 458 Italia won’t be shown to the public until the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, but the official details on the new car were released yesterday. The 458 is powered by a new direct-injected 4.5-liter V8 that pumps out 562 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque and the redline is a screaming 9,000 rpm! If you want to hear what that sounds like, check out the video below.

Mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission that can shift gears faster than you can blink, the 458 can blast from zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 202 mph (not that you would try that on a public road, of course). What’s more, this new Ferrari gets better gas mileage (17.1 mpg on the EU test cycle) than the old one. This is assuming Ferrari owners even care about fuel economy.

The 458 Italia should hit Ferrari showrooms in 2010, which I believe is when the new Ferrari dealership on Burrard Street is scheduled for completion. As long as the Internet doesn’t crash, this new Ferrari 458 Italia is mine. Now, I just have to tell Sarah… Wish me luck.
