A.P. Cracks Down on Unpaid Use of Articles on Web - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  • aking a new hard line that news articles should not turn up on search engines and Web sites without permission, The Associated Press said Thursday that it would add software to each article that shows what limits apply to the rights to use it, and that notifies The A.P. about how the article is used.
  • the company’s position was that even minimal use of a news article online required a licensing agreement with the news organization that produced it.
  • Search engines and news aggregators contend that their brief article citations fall under the legal principle of fair use.

  • Each article — and, in the future, each picture and video — would go out with what The A.P. called a digital “wrapper,” data invisible to the ordinary consumer that is intended, among other things, to maximize its ranking in Internet searches. The software would also send signals back to The A.P., letting it track use of the article across the Web.

What Will Prepare Us for Web 3.0? - 0 views

  •  
    Found this interesting, if for no other reason than as proof that the world at large is thinking about the implications of moving even past Web 2.0 and on to Web 3.0 (My apologies -- while I have referenced the article as translated by Babelfish, the original article is in French so the English may be a bit choppy; the ideas seem to remain intact, however, and the author's speculations about the future of the Web are interesting). Original link, for those who read French: http://pro.01net.com/editorial/506930/que-nous-prepare-le-web-3-0/
