In a bid to grow its share of mobile advertising, Hachette Filipacchi Media has signed a multi-year deal with Quattro Wireless to handle external ad sales for its mobile phone sites, having switched from mobile ad company Third Screen Media. Under the partnership, mobile publisher and ad network Quattro also will configure content for Hachette?s mobile sites for ease of navigation.

Hachette entered the mobile space in 2006 and recently used Quattro's platform to relaunch its six mobile brands, including Elle, Car and Driver and Woman's Day. Quattro also sells ads on the mobile sites of CBSNews.com, NFL.com and TMZ.com.

They?re a leading ad network in the mobile space and we think they?ll be able to represent our sites well,? Yaron Oren, director of mobile strategy and operations for Hachette, said of the decision to team up with Quattro. ?In the scope of all of Hachette?s businesses, [mobile] is still small, but it?s significant and growing.?

With the economy on everyone?s minds, Time Inc.?s All You, the low-cost women?s service magazine that?s sold in Wal-Mart through an exclusive arrangement, is launching a book club that it hopes will get more people to try its budget formula.

The club will be promoted in the magazine and on book department displays in more than 1,200 Wal-Mart stores. The magazine?s October 24 issue introduces the program with a spread that includes instructions on how to start a book club and feedback from especially involved readers to the club?s first pick, Thank You for All Things by Sandra Kring.

Random House, whose Bantam Discovery imprint published the book, is the club?s initial sponsor, although All You publisher Diane Oshin sees the program having potential appeal to other types of advertisers that sell product in Wal-Mart.

Helllooo! I'm a 26/f working in media looking for 1 or 2 fun 20-something like-minded gals to share an apartment with starting Nov. 1. For commuting purposes, I'd like to find a place in the Bloor Village/High Park area and hoping to pay $500-600/pp/month max. Parking required and pets are OK. To quote another advertiser, "no smoking, narcotics, or drama here (and in my future roomies, please)" I'm a very respectful roommate and a great workout partner who is always down for a dinner party, Sex and the City re-runs, and someone to join me for night out on the town. I do travel some weekends, so you will have your privacy. Email me at mcgtonia@hotmail.com asap if you're interested in apartment searching, and tell me a little about yourself. I can't wait to chat!
