Is Facebook Moving Into China?
[REPORT]<http://mashable.com/2011/04/08/facebook-china-4/>
15 hours ago by Charlie White

According to the latest crop of rumors,
Facebook<http://mashable.com/category/facebook>is about to make a deal
that will bring it into the vast Chinese market.

Though such rumors have been circulating since
2007<http://mashable.com/2007/10/31/facebook-china/>,
the information is presently coming from numerous credible industry sources.

But don't expect to friend anyone in China. Keeping with the country's
closed nature, any new Facebook social network in China wouldn't be linked
with the rest of the site.

According to *TechRice<http://techrice.com/2011/04/09/blockbuster-rumor-facebook-partners-with-baidu-to-enter-china/>
*, Facebook will be partnering with
Baidu<http://mashable.com/follow/topics/baidu/?page=1>,
the largest search engine in China, valued at $50 billion. That's if Hu
Yanping, founder of the Beijing-based Data Center of the China Internet (
DCCI <http://www.dcci.com.cn/>), tweets the truth. He says Facebook has
already signed an official contract with Baidu to create a new social
network in China.

Marbridge Consulting<http://www.marbridgeconsulting.com/marbridgedaily/2011-04-08/article/45061/rumor_baidu_facebook_ally_to_launch_sns_in_china>has
also heard from multiple industry sources, which say Facebook will be
working with Baidu on the new China site, bolstered by rumors that Baidu
visited Facebook in February.

So we have tweets on top of rumors on top of blog posts. The preponderance
of evidence is that Facebook has something going on in China. But given that
China wants to prevent the kind of revolutionary fervor reaching a fever
pitch in the Middle East and Northern Africa lately, any version of Facebook
in China will likely be tightly regulated and censored.

Could this end up being like that pale imitation of
Twitter<http://mashable.com/2010/12/15/chinas-communist-twitter/>we
saw sprouting up in China late last year? And will China's penchant
for
censorship mean a Chinese version of Facebook is doomed to die? Let us know
what you think in the comments.

Legal Lesson Learned: Copywriter Pays $4,000 for $10 Photo

Legal Lesson Learned: Copywriter Pays $4,000 for $10 Photo | Webcopyplus Web Copywriter Blog

[excerpt]

Why would copywriters at Webcopyplus pay $4,000 for a digital photo that retails for about $10? Well, frankly, we screwed up. It's an expensive lesson on copyright laws that we wish to share with other marketers, so you don't make the same mistake.

Our web copywriters were under the impression that images on the Web without any copyright notices were "public domain" and therefore free to use. Naive? Yes. A notion limited to our copywriting firm? Definitely not. It likely has to do with the fact that works no longer need a copyright notice to have copyright protection (you can read about the Berne Convention Implementation Act, which the US adopted in 1988).

Designers, writers, developers, marketers, business owners, and ironically even photographers, use photos from the Web without permission. Sites like Google make it so convenient. Enter your keywords, do an image search, and you've got an endless photo library ripe for the picking. Woman laughing delivers 5.2 million photos. Business man offers 423 million photos. And the keyword kids brings up a whopping 778 million images. You can find pretty well anything, too, from ABBA to zombies.

The Copyright Crime

While we maintained an active stock photo account for our blog with access to an array of suitable photos, one of our copywriters grabbed a photo from the Web. The image: a colour 400 x 300 pixel beach shot with some greenery in the foreground. A nice shot, but nothing spectacular.

We posted it on a client's tourism blog to add zest to a promotional article — done. Sip some caffeine, get a little Twitter action, and then dive into the next copywriting project. Photo forgotten. That was in May, 2010.

The Lawyer's Letter

Fast forward a few months, we got a call from the client a couple of days before Christmas, and he wasn't feeling overly festive. He received a formal letter from a lawyer with the following introduction: "Cease and desist demand and offer to settle copyright infringement claim, and digital millennium copyright act claim, subject to Rule 408, Federal Rules of Evidence."

Apparently copyright infringement involving images that are registered with the U.S. Copyright Office allows for statutory damages of up to $30,000, or $150,000 if it can be demonstrated it was a willful act.

Canadian Museums Association attacks artists' fees

February 2011

 

Canadian Museums Association attacks artists' fees

 

The Canadian Museums Association told a parliamentary committee on Tuesday they would like to see the Exhibition Right "abolished". Jon Tupper, President of the CMA, also asked to be exempt from paying artist fees for things such as reproductions in catalogues, in slides for public lectures and online.

 

Canadian museums are the main source of copyright income for visual artists. An amendment proposed by Bill C-32 to open fair dealing to education appears to have been perceived by the museum community as an invitation to stop paying the fees that artists such as Jack Chambers fought so hard for. Although they claim their budgets are too tight, for most public galleries artists' fees represent a small portion of their budget. When faced with similar arguments back in the 1970's, artist Tony Urquhart suggested to a Montreal museum director that instead of hosting twenty contemporary exhibits in a year, he host nineteen and use the last budget to pay the artists.

 

Tupper insisted that museums should not have to pay artists fees for artwork which they own but recognized that more and more museums do not have the funds to purchase artwork. In Ontario alone, 98 percent of art collections are acquired by donation, meaning that visual artists would not receive any payment for these works if the CMA's recommendations were followed.

 

"The principle of compensating artists for the public presentation of their work has been enshrined in two Canadian laws for over twenty years," said CARFAC president Gerald Beaulieu. "Clearly our parliamentarians have supported this notion because it is sound and just public policy."

 

What do you think about the Canadian Museum Association's statement?

Schools Must Validate Artistic Expression - Creativity is a key part of the educated mind.

Schools Must Validate Artistic Expression

Creativity is a key part of the educated mind.

[excerpt]

I heard a great story recently about a six-year-old girl in a drawing lesson. The teacher said this little girl hardly ever paid attention in class, but during this lesson she did. The teacher was fascinated.

She asked the girl, "What are you drawing?" And the girl said, "I'm drawing a picture of God." The teacher said, "But nobody knows what God looks like." The girl said, "They will in a minute."

[...]

...we are educating people out of their creative capacities. Picasso once said that all children are born artists. The trick is to remain an artist as we grow up. I believe this passionately: We don't grow into creativity; we grow out of it. Or, rather, we get educated out of it. Creativity now is as important in education as literacy, and we should treat it with the same status.

[...]

We have to rethink the fundamental principles on which we're educating our children. And the only way we'll do it is by seeing our creative capacities for the richness they are, and seeing our children for the hope they are. Our task is to educate our whole being so they can face this future. We may not see this future, but they will. And our job is to help them make something of it.

By Sir Ken Robinson http://sirkenrobinson.com/skr/ an international leader in creativity, innovation, and educational reform and author of Out of Our Minds: Learning to Be Creative. This article is based on a talk he gave at the 2006 TED conference.

Why Paywalls Are Bad Business

09 Feb 2011 12:57 pm

by Zoe Pollock

Felix Salmon predicts that the NYT will lose to sites like the Huffington Post:

Original post:

Tom McGeveran asks an important question, in his analysis of the AOL-HuffPo deal:

What is it about the environment of traditional journalism that makes it so that readers are more likely to interact with the Huffington Post reblog of a New York Times article than they are with the article itself?

The answer to this question, I think, is also a key part of the reason why the NYT paywall is a bad idea.

Interview: USA Today social media editor Michelle Kessler on the evolving newsroom, measuring success

[excerpt]

The impact of social media on the media and publishing industries has been well documented. Newspapers and magazines are increasing their focus online, which means an investment in social media channels as well as the company website.

I recently asked USA Today's new social media editor,  Michelle Kessler, a few questions about the evolving state of the newsroom and how social media is impacting news gathering and reporting.

Jonas: You recently became social media editor at USA Today. How is the role currently defined and what, specifically, are you responsible for?

Kessler: My job is to help reporters and editors use social media to connect with readers and sources.  That includes everything from training to maintaining feeds to helping sign partnerships.

[...]

Jonas: Generally speaking, how are your reporters and editors using social media to connect with readers and sources? What's the benefit? Or put another way, how are you tracking success?

Kessler: USA TODAY has a large social media presence, including multiple official Facebook pages and Twitter feeds. (Examples are here, here, and here.)  In addition, many of our reporters and editors are extremely active on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and other sites.

Social networking is just a new way of talking to people, which is what reporters have always done.  It's often easier to ping someone on Facebook, or make a connection on LinkedIn, than it is to chase someone down over the phone.  Twitter can be an extremely efficient way to share news or ask a question to a large audience.

And these sites also make it easier for readers to talk to us.  For example, we monitor every Twitter comment that mentions  @usatoday, and respond when appropriate. Last night we asked for our readers' take on the State of the Union address, and ran a few of the most interesting comments here.

Simon Waldman on Creative Disruption - What You Need To Do To Shake Up Your Business In The Digital World

Simon Waldman on Creative Disruption - Video - What You Need To Do To Shake Up Your Business In The Digital World
http://ow.ly/3EAJC

Simon Waldman - who used to run the digital business at the Guardian newspaper and is now an executive at Lovefilms - is the author of an interesting new book entitled Creative Disruption: What You Need To Do To Shake Up Your Business In The Digital World.

I caught up with Waldman earlier this month in Athens, Greece at WPP's Stream conference, where he gave a memorable presentation about his new book. Looking at disruptive digital businesses like Amazon, Skype, Google and Apple, Creative Disruption is designed as a manual for managers in companies attempting to make the transition into the digital age. Using the examples of successful reinvented businesses like IBM, Waldman's book is all about how to reinvent your business in the digital age without throwing out everything you do and everything you know.

Waldman's message is an important one. While the digital world has had a huge impact on the media industry, it is only now beginning to radically transform the broader economy. Any manager in healthcare, retail, financial services or the insurance industry needs to read Creative Disruption. The digital world is about to disrupt your business. Listening to Waldman might guarantee that this disruption won't result in destruction. –Andrew Keen

The late Professor Barbara Godard of York University, elected to the Order of Canada in 2010, left the feminist scholarly community with an outstanding parting gift.

As one of the founding editors, Professor Godard secured the approval and the means to enable all 21 years of Tessera to be available online without access restrictions.

Tessera is an influential scholarly journal which published feminist theory and innovative writing by Canadian and Quebecois women. Some of the nation's most important feminist writers were published by the journal, including Nicole Brossard, Louky Bersianik, Louise Cotnoir, Linda Hutcheon, Daphne Marlatt and Marlene Nourbese Philip among others.

Tessera is hosted by the York University Libraries using Open Journal Systems software.

Vladimir Putin Orders Russian Government to Switch to Free Software by 2015

Vladimir Putin Orders Russian Government to Switch to Free Software by 2015
http://ow.ly/3v5yG

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has signed a government order that lays out the groundwork for the transition of federal bodies and agencies to use free software, including Linux, by 2015.

The 25-point document (available here) outlines specific steps the government must take in order to move off proprietary software and onto free and/or open source alternatives like Linux (). The government order was approved on December 17 and affects all federal agencies of the federal budget.

Each point of the document names the specific action that must be taken, the agency responsible for implementing that order, the time frame for implementation, and the expected result. For example, point #5 instructs Russia's Ministry of Communications to form, "the base package of free software solutions for typical problems of the federal executive bodies," with the expected result a free package of software that includes operating systems, drivers and application software for servers.

Order #5 calls for, "creating and maintaining a single repository of free software used in the federal bodies of executive power," while order #20 requires, "the development of departmental plans to move to the use of free software, including plans for transition of subordinate budget institutions." The final order, to be implemented in Q3 2015, calls for, "preparation of the draft orders of the Government of the Russian Federation on the adoption of a phased introduction of free software for the next planning period."

Russia has been moving in the direction of free software for the last few years. In 2008, the government ordered schools to implement free software packages in all of its computers. Schools that now want to use proprietary software have to pay for it out of their own pockets.

WikiRebels: The Documentary | WikiLeaks & Julian Assange

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPglX8Bl3Dc

wozzek22 | December 10, 2010 | 53 likes, 0 dislikes

Swedish Television's Jesper Huor and Bosse Lindquist exclusive rough-cut of first in-depth documentary on WikiLeaks and the people behind it!

"From summer 2010 until now, SVT has been following the secretive media organization WikiLeaks and its enigmatic Editor-in-Chief Julian Assange.

Reporters Jesper Huor and Bosse Lindquist have traveled to key countries where WikiLeaks operates, interviewing top members, such as Assange, new Spokesperson Kristinn Hrafnsson, as well as people like Daniel Domscheit-Berg who now is starting his own version - Openleaks.org."

The documentary also includes interviews with Ian Overton from The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, James Ball of TBIJ and WikiLeaks, Icelandic MP Birgitta Jónsdóttir, former WikiLeaks collaborators Herbert Snorrason and Smári McCarthy, and PRQ CEO Mikael Viborg.

The documentary looks at WikiLeaks' philosophy and operations, some of its famous disclosures including the Kenya report, the Guantanamo manuals, Kaupthing, Trafigura, the Collateral Murder video, the Afghanistan and Iraq war logs, the US administration's reactions, and the lead-up to the Cablegate release.

WikiRebels: The Documentary | WikiLeaks & Julian Assange

wozzek22 | December 10, 2010 | 53 likes, 0 dislikes

Swedish Television's Jesper Huor and Bosse Lindquist exclusive rough-cut of first in-depth documentary on WikiLeaks and the people behind it!

"From summer 2010 until now, SVT has been following the secretive media organization WikiLeaks and its enigmatic Editor-in-Chief Julian Assange.

Reporters Jesper Huor and Bosse Lindquist have traveled to key countries where WikiLeaks operates, interviewing top members, such as Assange, new Spokesperson Kristinn Hrafnsson, as well as people like Daniel Domscheit-Berg who now is starting his own version - Openleaks.org."

The documentary also includes interviews with Ian Overton from The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, James Ball of TBIJ and WikiLeaks, Icelandic MP Birgitta Jónsdóttir, former WikiLeaks collaborators Herbert Snorrason and Smári McCarthy, and PRQ CEO Mikael Viborg.

The documentary looks at WikiLeaks' philosophy and operations, some of its famous disclosures including the Kenya report, the Guantanamo manuals, Kaupthing, Trafigura, the Collateral Murder video, the Afghanistan and Iraq war logs, the US administration's reactions, and the lead-up to the Cablegate release.
