    Pinterest is an online forum where people can post articles, videos, recipes, photos, etc., that express their own interests. It is a fascinating way in which "every consumer gets courted across multiple media platforms" since each person's pinterest "boards" depict multiple ways of gathering information and appeals to popular cultural phenomenons. It is also very similar to diigo in many ways that I think is interesting- different websites that are used to organize the mass amount of information that people encounter while searching the web.

Intellectual property - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • Lawrence Lessig, along with many other copyleft and free software activists, have criticized the implied analogy with physical property (like land or an automobile). They argue such an analogy fails because physical property is generally rivalrous while intellectual works are non-rivalrous (that is, if one makes a copy of a work, the enjoyment of the copy does not prevent enjoyment of the original).
  • Some critics of intellectual property, such as those in the free culture movement, point at intellectual monopolies as harming health (in the case of pharmaceutical patents), preventing progress, and benefiting concentrated interests to the detriment of the masses,[34][35] and argue that the public interest is harmed by ever expansive monopolies in the form of copyright extensions, software patents, and business method patents.
  • intellectual property tends to be governed by economic goals when it should be viewed primarily as a social product;

  • Other criticism of intellectual property law concerns the tendency of the protections of intellectual property to expand, both in duration and in scope. The trend has been toward longer copyright protection[39] (raising fears that it may some day be eternal).
  • Patents have been granted for living organisms,[43] (and in the US, certain living organisms have been patentable for over a century)[44] and colors have been trademarked.[
  • The ethical problems brought up by intellectual property rights are most pertinent when it is socially valuable goods like life-saving medicines and genetically modified seeds that are given intellectual property protection. For example, pharmaceutical companies that produce, apply[clarification needed] intellectual property rights in order to prevent other companies from manufacturing their product without the additional cost of research and development. The application of intellectual property rights allow companies to charge higher than the marginal cost of production in order to recoup the costs of research and development.[50] However, this immediately excludes from the market anyone who cannot afford the cost of the product, in this case a life saving drug.

New media - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • National security New Media has also recently become of interest to the global espionage community as it is easily accessible electronically in database format and can therefore be quickly retrieved and reverse engineered by national governments. Particularly of interest to the espionage community are Facebook and Twitter, two sites where individuals freely divulge personal information that can then be sifted through and archived for the automatic creation of dossiers on both people of interest and the average citizen.[24]
  • The advertising industry has capitalized on the proliferation of new media with large agencies running multi-million dollar interactive advertising subsidiaries. Interactive websites and kiosks have become popular. In a number of cases advertising agencies have also set up new divisions to study new media. Public relations firms are also taking advantage of the opportunities in new media through interactive PR practices. Interactive PR practices include the use of social media[33] to reach a mass audience of online social network users.
  • Today, 8-18 year-olds devote an average of 7 hours and 38 minutes (7:38) to using entertainment media in a typical day (more than 53 hours a week) – about the same amount most adults spend at work per day. Since much of that time is spent 'media multitasking' (using more than one medium at a time), they actually manage to spend a total of 10 hours and 45 minutes worth of media content in those 7½ hours per day. According to the Pew Internet & American Life Project, 96% of 18-29 year olds and three-quarters (75%) of teens now own a cell phone, 88% of whom text, with 73% of wired American teens using social networking websites, a significant increase from previous years.[
