The danger of the wall « BuzzMachine - 1 views

  • charging brings many costs: • It creates the expense of marketing (when, online, your audience will market you for free, if you deserve it). • It reduces audience. • It reduces advertising revenue. • It reduces links and clicks, which reduces Googlejuice, which reduces discovery, which limits growth.
  • But more than any of this, pay walls curtail a news organization’s relationship with its public, with its customers. On the internet, it’s in those relationships where value lies.
  • So media companies are becoming in part, retailers. Does it make sense to put a toll booth at the door to your store to keep people out?

Is permission needed to retweet hot news? - 0 views

  •  
    "We've written extensively about "hot news" in the past. The doctrine has never gone away, though it has always been quite limited (New York state is one of the few places it is regularly recognized by the courts). It sounds like something archaic, but think for a moment how it might apply to bloggers, aggregators, Facebook posters, and even Twitter users today. If you think this stuff doesn't matter to the news business, then you haven't been paying attention. This isn't about copyright; it's about control of the facts."
