It is still unclear whether an ad model will ever drive enough revenue to support the operating costs of delivering online video - but online video is still supported by ads and its good to know the industry is trying to make it better.

Social Media Interaction Isn't comparable to MBA

Submitted by Business Directory (not verified) on November 12, 2009 - 8:20am.

Social media interaction Isn't comparable to MBA. Granted there are cases of success, of people leveraging social media to their benefits. MBA as a degree commands respect. Vast majority of people involved in social media earns a pittance compare to MBA grads. Most people are involved in social media don't earn enough to quit their day jobs. I already had a finance related degree when going to the expansive private school for my MBA, and it wasn't as beneficial for me in terms of learning experience as there was a lot of overlaps. Social media, I feel, have a lot of potential if done properly, but it's a new field for me, and there isn't a structured learning environment where I can pick up all the important tools to help boost my earnings.

Submitted by Microsoft Layoffs (not verified) on November 10, 2009 - 11:03pm.

In response to the global economic downturn, Microsoft announced its plan to adjust the company’s cost structure through spending reductions and job eliminations. The company has begun its next round of layoffs in the ongoing cutbacks announced earlier this year, with 5,000 employees about to get the axe. That wasn't good enough, apparently, as the suits that populate the office needed a few more ivory back scratchers, and the number of Microsoft layoffs has been expanded, as they are eliminating 800 more jobs. Microsoft, based in Redmond, Washington, one of the largest employers of the greater Seattle area, has also posted contractor jobs to make up for the losses, but pay less. However, the workers that gave the company its success by their labor are rewarded for service with more Microsoft layoffs and anxiety about when they get their next pay day.

Submitted by JohnMcD (not verified) on November 10, 2009 - 2:11pm.

I mentioned yesterday how no new games were holding my attention, but the only game that actively annoyed me was from EA. They've gone overboard with EULAs and downloaders and anti-piracy measures. When I installed WH it ended up putting a bunch of useless programs in the background, and uninstalling was a huge pain. So while I feel for the people losing jobs, I hope EA realizes that its their own policies that are to blame when I actively go out of my way to avoid their future titles. I'm looking for entertainment, not a technical and legal run-around.

When I write or draw or sing, I do it for myself. If anyone likes it, that's cool. But, I really do it for me. To see what I can accomplish and create.

I can't believe how well the PS3 is performing in sales lately. I thought Sony was toast this generation. Then again, anything is possible with big enough price cuts. Wii and 360 both have more to offer per dollar than PS3.

This is fine and dandy for uploaders, but what about downloaders? I haven't been able to download anything now for about a week or so. I see the files at Mininova, but, can't access any of them old or new to download. Is there something we can do to get the things we want? What's the use of people uploading things if no one can download them? Thanks.

Submitted by anonymous (not verified) on October 16, 2009 - 12:39pm.

If any of the judges admitted to using Limewire, Mininova, or some other P2P program (And it's a fair bet that at least a few of them do, regularly) you can bet that the plaintiffs would be throwing a complete fit over it! There is, in fact, a single organization these judges can belong to that is qualified to offer an opinion on matters of copyright law: The judicial branch of government. It is not possible to be unbiased and belong to ANY other organization significantly involved in copyright law, regardless of that organization's viewpoint on copyright.

Wow "The Swedish Court of Appeal rejected the defendants' conflict of interest claims, saying that membership in the associations would not bias their judgment." How wouldn't they have a conflict of interest. If they are members of anti-copyrite groups then of course they are going to want to stop them.

Submitted by ReedV (not verified) on October 14, 2009 - 6:45pm.

Heard about that amazon kindle and read its review in amazon. Amazon gives us the best purchases by the help of its reviews. Author Benjamin Rich decided to undertake a journey to a place he dubbed Whitopia. In the 1970s, there was a series of events called "White Flight," which consisted of a predominantly white set of people moved to suburbs to escape the inner cities. The suburbs are now starting to empty, and the same group of people, typically middle class, move to smaller towns, usually more rural areas, to escape the suburbs, and these areas were dubbed Whitopia by Rich. You can get it off Amazon in hardback for about $30, or for the Kindle for $10, less than any fax payday loan. However, getting a Kindle to read Whitopia might run you some easy cash loans.

Submitted by anonymous (not verified) on October 12, 2009 - 3:11am.

Thanks for the insights. I think you make some interesting points. Here are a few other points: The article says Leno hopes to reach "people "exhausted by kids, work and so on"" in part because he'll be serving up timely, topical issues. While that might be his aim, my view is that it won't last more than a year because: A) He's just not that funny; and B) People get so much timely, topical news that watching Leno will just be duplicate and boring to people who are "exhausted." I agree with the article on the point that TV will serve up more live broadcasts, but they'll have to be good to survive, and I don't believe Leno is good (that was my point when we talked--it was specific to Leno). I do think the point about cost is a very interesting and good one--Newspapers have already gone through this shift, as news has gone from newspapers to the Internet, leaving advertising in newspapers a much diminished market. So the same might happen with network/cable TV as the article suggests, but it might happen in a different way because the media are very different. The article stops too soon, though (except for the last line of it): People have been talking about "convergence" for a long time, and those arguments suggest "TV with commercials" as we know it is being more influenced by the Internet than it is by TV networks. People forget that TV is a medium as well as the message that it sends. And if people don't like the medium (i.e. being tied to a TV anchored in their playroom or where-ever) and they don't like the message (i.e. advertisements while they're watching a show), then the game is up for TV. The current/future factors driving media today are: Portability (like a laptop), personalization (like how you personalize your google or yahoo or shopping pages), and real-time (like near instantaneous information from anywhere in the world, anytime). TV doesn't offer these.

Seriously?

Submitted by anonymous (not verified) on October 10, 2009 - 2:00am.

I actually read somewhere that 60% of online players are female. This probably refers to the smaller online games. But I know there are girl MMO players. And I wouldn't be bragging about only playing with guys all day. You aren't expanding your horizon. I know lots of girl players who are way better then me. So get your head out of your ass and stop being the reason guy gamers have a bad wrap. People think we're losers who live in our mom's basement! So seriously stop.
