NEW YORK, NY., June 7, 2017- Leading consumer technology publisher Digital Trends (www.DigitalTrends.com) will present Tech Talks at multiple advertising agencies throughout the month of June in an effort to educate and entertain partners.

Global media agency OMD will host the latest event today at its Chicago office.  Digital Trends Editor in Chief Jeremy Kaplan and Managing Editor Nick Mokey, will give a presentation and address questions during the agency talk regarding the current state of technology, and how consumers are using tech in their everyday lives.

“Our editors are trained to spot movements within the tech world and report on them on a daily basis,” said Digital Trends Editor-in-Chief Jeremy Kaplan.  “Teaching these trends to our various clients and agency partners gives them a chance to be ahead of the curve.”

The following week, both Kaplan and Mokey will host a multi-agency and client meetup in San Francisco to outline seven trends to watch for in 2017.   Representatives from key clients like Wells Fargo and agencies like Carat will be in attendance to learn about future patterns in technology.

“Agency and client relationships are the lifeblood of our industry.” Said Andrew Budkofsky, Chief Revenue Officer of Digital Trends. “It’s an incredible opportunity to have our editors talking face-to-face with decision makers to be a valuable resource for them.”

In March, Digital Trends debuted their inaugural Tech Talk to a packed room at Starcom in New York City.  Digital Trends is currently planning Tech Talk events for the remainder of 2017 with ad agencies in major cities around the United States and Canada.

Scammers are increasingly turning to social media platforms, with fraud via popular services such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter netting criminals at least $770 million in 2021, according to data from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

But as few people tend to report such frauds due to feelings of embarrassment or shame, the 95,000 victims in the commission's research are estimated to represent only a "small fraction" of the total number of such cases, the FTC said.

The Weather Channel -- which previously had seen relatively small reach on streaming platforms in the United States -- is starting to branch out. YouTube TV will gain the 24-7 weather service this year, according to a press release from Allen Media Group and Google.

The addition is a big deal because The Weather Channel had been limited to two of the smallest streaming platforms -- FuboTV and DirecTV Stream. It also fills a pretty big void in the YouTube TV lineup, which doesn't currently have an all-day weather channel. YouTube TV is believed to be the second-largest streaming service in the United States. It last announced a ballpark figure of "more than 3 million subscribers" in October 2020.
