Google released a study of media habits in late August that quantifies what many have observed: Americans consume digital content across four different devices – television, personal computer, tablet and smartphone. Together, the four account for 90% of media usage. Abandon hope, all ye who favor print!)

Remember this: A single radio or television ad will never work if it’s only been disseminated once. But when radio or television ads get heard or seen over and over again, they have a way of finally piercing through the noise.
