Connecting the World - SUCCESS magazine - 0 views

  • Social media permit virtual face-to-face meetings every day, says David Meerman Scott, a marketing strategist and author of The New Rules of Marketing and PR: How to Use News Releases, Blogs, Viral Marketing and Online Media to Reach Buyers Directly. “I like to tell salespeople to think of the Web as a huge city teeming with individuals, and blogs and other social media information as the sounds of independent voices,” he says.

Podcast - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • A podcast (or non-streamed webcast) is a series of digital media files (either audio or video) that are released episodically and often downloaded through web syndication. The word usurped webcast in common vernacular, due to rising popularity of the iPod and the innovation of web feeds.

Napster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • Napster was an online music peer-to-peer file sharing service created by Shawn Fanning while he was attending Northeastern University in Boston. The service operated between June 1999 and July 2001.[1] Its technology allowed people to easily share their MP3 files with other participants, bypassing the established market for such songs and thus leading to massive copyright violations of music and film media as well as other intellectual property. Although the original service was shut down by court order, it paved the way for decentralized peer-to-peer file distribution programs, which have been much harder to control. The service was named Napster after Fanning's hairstyle-based nickname. Napster's brand and logo were purchased after the company closed its doors and continue to be used by a pay service.

Social Media Success Is About Purpose (Not Technology) - Anthony J. Bradley and Mark P.... - 0 views

This Harvard Business review article is very much on the money. Who are you and why are you sharing. What is your purpose. If you don't know you'll send mixed signals. IF you do, you and the people who follow you will be more content with the experience.

  • In the 2000s the Internet grew to an astounding level not only in the number of people who regularly logged on to the World Wide Web (WWW) but in the speed and capability of its technology. By December 2009, 26 percent of the world’s population used the Internet and “surfed the web.
  • The rapid growth of Internet technology and usage had a drastic cultural effect on the United States. Although that impact was mostly positive, the WWW caused many social concerns. With financial transactions and personal information being stored on computer databases, credit-card fraud and identity theft were frighteningly common.
  • Hackers accessed private and personal information and used it for personal gain. Hate groups and terrorist organizations actively recruited online, and the threat remained of online terrorist activities ranging from planting computer viruses to potentially blowing up power stations by hacking computers that ran the machinery. Copyright infringement was a growing concern

  • At the turn of the century, most users accessed the Internet by a dial-up connection in which computers used modems to connect to other computers using existing telephone lines. Typical dial-up connections ran at 56 kilobytes per second.
  • raditional communications media such as telephone and television services were redefined by technologies such as instant messaging, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), mobile smartphones, and streaming video.
  • The Internet changed the production, sale, and distribution of print publications, software, news, music, film, video, photography, and everyday products from soap to automobiles.
  • With broadband, Internet users could download and watch videos in a matter of seconds, media companies could offer live streaming-video newsfeeds, and peer-to-peer file sharing became efficient and commonplace. News was delivered on websites, blogs, and webfeeds, and e-commerce changed the way people shopped. Television shows, home movies, and feature films were viewed on desktop or laptop computers and even on cell phones. Students researched online, and many parents began working from home for their employers or started their own online businesses.
  • It was also becoming increasingly easy for users to access it from Internet cafés, Internet kiosks, access terminals, and web pay phones. With the advent of wireless, customers could connect to the Internet from virtually any place that offered remote service in the form of a wireless local area network (WLAN) or Wi-Fi router.
  • In January 2001 Apple launched the iPod digital music player, and then in April 2003 it opened the iTunes Store, allowing customers to legally purchase songs for 99 cents. Although federal courts ordered that music-sharing services such as Napster could be held liable if they were used to steal copyrighted works, Fanning’s brainchild realized the power of peer-to-peer file sharing and the potential success of user-generated Internet services.
  • Email was the general form of internet communication and allowed users to send electronic text messages. Users could also attach additional files containing text, pictures, or videos. Chat rooms and instant-messaging systems were also popular methods of online communication and were even quicker than traditional email. Broadband made other popular forms of Internet communication possible, including video chat rooms and video conferencing. Internet telephony or VoIP became increasingly popular f

Online Piracy Alert System to Begin This Week - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    This week the Copyright Alert System is being put into effect on the Internet. The system is used as an alert to companies about copyright infringement on their websites. Now when people on the Internet attempt to copy and paste a company's work onto their own work, they will receive a series of warnings. Media companies will observe online traffic and report to Internet providers if they think work has been downloaded illegally. The person who did this will receive up to six warnings and after that service providers can stop their Internet flow or give them up to a $35 fine. This relates to the sharing of information through Web 2.0 because people's work that they upload can be stolen or plagiarized, and this is helping to prevent that by discouraging the stealing of work.
