The following is required reading for my Winter 2012 Media Industries students: In Fight Over Piracy Bills, New Economy Rises Against Old (New York Times) Terence Corcoran: No oil meets no copyright With Twitter, Blackouts and Demonstrations, Web Flexes Its Muscle Eastman Kodak Files for Bankruptcy Online Piracy and Political Overreach Political support for SOPA fades as protests darken Internet (Globe and Mail) Required reading for my Media Industries class (Winter 2012): Wikipedia, Reddit going dark to protest anti-piracy billWhen Truth Survives Free Speech A great article in the NYTs about a douchebag of a blogger. The problem with Facebook is not that it is public or lacking in privacy controls (it is silly to think that any real privacy exists on the Internet). The problem with Facebook is that it is greedy. There is no clear path to profits for the individual user. No equivalent of Google’ Adsense, nothing like YouTube’s monization feature. Google+, which I am a member, but have little use for, also has no profit sharing features — and the same goes with LinkedIn (useless to me). Hopefully Google will extend its Adsense program to Google+ — it would be a distinct competitive advantage. A video by Dr. Strangelove |
