I’m at the Guardian Media Group’s offsite. Not planning to blog it. But I can’t help this: David Muir, CEO of WPP’s The Channel, gives the agency’s ad share projections for the UK. Online is now at 25% (far ahead of the U.S., by the way) and they predict it will surpass TV — and all other media — next year. But he cautioned that 79% of that online advertising goes to search. Google is God.
CORRECTION: I missed a step in the math. Muir says that search takes 79 percent of online advertising and that Google, in turn, takes an estimated 75 percent of that, three-quarters of three-quarters.
