Today's Must Read
[âIt Wasnât A Job, It Was A Cult!â: The Definitive Oral History Of DoubleClick](
DoubleClick rode the dot-com boom to heights of overcapitalization and came crashing down with everyone else in 2000. It created New Yorkâs Silicon Alley, had outrageous parties and heavenly bills and saw just about every future ad tech luminary pass through its cult. [More.](

[Google Will Make Parallel Tracking Mandatory On Oct. 30 â But What Is It?](
Parallel tracking, which Google first introduced as an option last year, changes the way third-party click tracking functions across its ad products. Google claims it can shave as much as five seconds off of a pageâs load time. [More.](

News Round Up
Swipe Right On Programmatic
Dating app Tinder is using Googleâs ad server to sell ads programmatically, Digiday reports. Advertisers will be able to buy inventory through programmatic guaranteed deals or private marketplaces by the end of the year. But Tinder wonât be using Google as a third-party demand source. The partnership resembles one Tinder forged with Facebook in February to sell ads via its in-app ad network. Tinderâs ad partnerships represent a larger push by parent company Match Group to monetize its properties programmatically. âFor almost any company that isnât Google or Facebook, youâre going to have impressions that you donât have demand for,â said Peter Foster, Match Groupâs global GM of advertising. âWe think about both those platforms as excellent partners that provide ways to reach advertisers that we wonât be able to get on our own because we donât have that scale.â [More](.
For Good Measure
The IAB published an advanced TV attribution guide it hopes will start a cascade of budgets into the connected TV and OTT ecosystem. The early adopters for addressable TV havenât been legacy TV advertisers, but rather data-first marketers who want to see how different TV ad strategies impact sales. âAfter all, who cares how many impressions were delivered on one platform versus the other when what matters most to a brand is the outcomes that it drove?â authors Michael Law (Dentsu Aegis Network) and Mike Welch (Xander) write for the IAB. âOur hope is that you will become more willing to test and learn which will lead to more effective planning, measurement, and confidence in âproving itâ along with your inventory and attribution partners.â [More](.
Baby Bump
Johnson & Johnson is doing a complete overhaul of some of its most iconic brands. Its namesake baby shampoo line changed its formula to use more natural ingredients and launched a major digital marketing campaign. The company has lost 10% of share of the US baby products market in the past five years, according to Nielsen data, The Wall Street Journal reports. The same is true of other major CPG brands like Procter & Gamble, which has particularly struggled with diapers and other baby product lines. Itâs true of non-baby CPGs too, but online retailers and DTC brands disproportionately target pregnant women and new parents because those markets have such high lifetime value. [More](.
