On-again off-again iPhone app Podcaster is on again, sort of - 0 views

  • The developer who has already had his iPhone app denied from Apple's App Store and had his ability to issue Ad Hoc licenses of the app revoked by Apple is hoping that the third time's a charm
  • Podcaster first made news last month when Sokirynsky made it known that his application had been rejected from the App Store for duplicating the functionality of iTunes. The third-party app allows users to download podcasts to their iPhones or iPod touches. Users could then listen to the podcasts immediately instead of having to sync with a computer first.
  • Apple then denied Sokirynsky the ability to distribute any more ad hoc copies of the application.
  •  
    Look at what apple is doing to protect their own hold on the musical pursestrings of society with this.
  •  
    Apple is quite protective of the uses of their devices and although they allow the development of "apps" -- they made waves recently when they denied the app that allows people to download and listen directly to podcasts w/out synching w/ the computer. Mobile itunes doesn't offer this feature. So, there is "open" and truly "open." Iphone apps store isn't really open, if this is true.

    This journal expands on the philosophical disadvantages of Web 2.0 as well as acknowledging the scientific education advantages within a school system. Within a school system, a classroom is started with a base of a higher expectation rate (highly structured), and a control on the primary thinking points of the students (based on scientific data).

Resource #3 - 0 views

  • The blog is a publishing innovation, a digital newswire that, due to the proliferation of the Internet, low production and distribution costs, ease of use and really simple syndication (RSS), creates a new and powerful push-pull publishing concept. As such, it changes the power structures in journalism, giving yesterday's readers the option of being today's journalists and tomorrow's preferred news aggregators.
  • Blogging is a concept whereas publishing text on the web is combined with its syndication. Users or other bloggers subscribe to these syndication feeds (RSS-feeds), which automatically appear on the subscriber's website, blog or in a newsreader.
  • Though Mooney calls the blogosphere a marketplace, blogging is also the roaming—as in cellular network—of ideas in marketplaces or networks. These roaming networks are growing and gaining importance. Blogs number 30 million worldwide, promoted by the often-free blogging service providers like Blogger and Wordpress.

  • The marketplace for technological ideas is not dissimilar from the marketplace for political ones. Lessig's reasoning applies, maybe even more so, to the technology arena where blogging is more common than in any other space, except maybe in politics.
  • Blogs are goldmines for journalists doing professional and crafted work. The blogosphere is a huge source to tap, using services like Tecnorati.com (a blog search engine) and Googlenews, for new ideas, arguments and leads to new stories and for follow-ups on stories on other sites.
  • raditional printing is an expensive process, especially in metropolitan areas. And as sites like Craigslist.org, free after text ads, demolish the traditional revenue model for papers, the cost of printing will be harder to justify. Papers are slow and money-sucking operations, or as Shel Israel, author of the book Naked Conversations, put it "In the Information Age, the newspaper has become a cumbersome and inefficient distribution mechanism. If you want fast delivery of news, paper is a stage coach competing with jet planes." By blogging some beats or sections that normally run in print, publications would expand their audience as well [as] attract new readers through blogging using fewer resources.
  • Blogs are also a way of using journalists more effectively. All information, given that it is relevant, that actually does not fit into the paper can be channeled through blogs, allowing the readers to choose what to read or not. This enables a dialogue, a sense of ownership and participation that is essential in creating communities.

    Contrary to much of the conventional understanding of how people learn about their communities, Americans turn to a wide range of platforms to get local news and information, and where they turn varies considerably depending on the subject matter and their age, according to a survey by the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism and Internet & American Life Project, produced in association with the John S.
