Blogging for fun... then profit: And then, during one soul-searching month this spring, the writer who writes about start-ups decided to stake his reputation and his income on starting one himself.
Or to put it another way: Open mouth, insert money.
The money in this case was a little less than $1 million from True Venture Partners. They're betting that Malik can take his significant connections and experience and roll it into a profitable micropublishing venture based at gigaom.com. Malik's new business will be called GigaOmniMedia Inc.
Malik is the latest in a string of bloggers who are finding financial backing for their news-oriented sites. Another daily news blog, Paidcontent.org, recently received modest funding, as did Christoper Carey of Sharesleuth.com.
Marketers Curious About Blogs, But Not Spending: The study, "Interactive Marketing Channels to Watch in 2006," found that marketers are putting most of their money in e-mail, search, behavioral and contextual targeting, and rich media. More than 65 percent of those surveyed plan to invest in each of these mediums in the next year.
"Marketers are very curious about social channels like blogs, but are not putting their money in that space," said Shar VanBoskirk, a research analyst at Forrester Research, Cambridge, MA. "Instead, the momentum is really in behavioral targeting and in rich media."
Media and communication firms lead in exploring adopted channels. More than 60 percent of them use or plan to use e-mail marketing, social marketing, rich media e-mails and display ads, contextual and behavioral targeting, blogs/social networks, RSS and mobile marketing within the next year.

CTT passam a distribuir correio por via electrónica: A caixa electrónica postal está disponível, mas rodeada de incertezas. Só cenários de níveis de adesão foram construídos pelos CTT um total de 15. Luís Nazaré, presidente da empresa, disse ao DN que estimar o nível de adesão ao Via CTT é como jogar na lotaria.
ViaCTT: 2.000 pessoas aderiram até final do dia: Os CTT investiram 2,5 milhões de euros no novo serviço, que permite a qualquer pessoa, empresa ou instituição ter uma caixa de correio electrónica onde ficará reunida a correspondência.
Via CTT avança com uma dezena de parceiros: Sem custos de adesão para o utilizador, o Via CTT pode ser subscrito através da Internet, telefone (808202029) ou nas lojas dos CTT. Cabe ao utilizador decidir de que entidades pretende receber correspondência electrónica através deste endereço que apenas pode ser usado nestes moldes, não podendo ser fornecido a terceiros como endereço de email.

Leave me alone . . .: Where once our daily life interrupted our work, now our work interrupts our work. We have become enslaved to the very communications technology that was supposed to free us from office drudgery, from travel, from face-to-face meetings with disagreeable co-workers. There are hopes, however, that technology will once again come to the rescue. Software designed to prioritise communications and assess your "interruptability" is currently being tested by Microsoft. If it works it could become the electronic equivalent of an executive secretary, shielding you from unwanted and unnecessary intrusion.

Houve outras razões (mais pessoais), mas prevaleceu esta em particular: qual é a necessidade de passar para o papel uma realidade que nasceu na Internet? Por que é que há-de sair da Internet?

Le présentateur du JT doit rester neutre: les Français sont attachés à la neutralité politique, religieuse et idéologique du présentateur du journal de 20 Heures. En revanche, ils sont aujourd'hui majoritairement indifférents à ses revenus, à ses contrats publicitaires, à sa vie privée, à son ancienneté dans le poste, à son "look", à son âge ou encore à ses origines. 85% ne voient pas d'inconvénient à ce que le présentateur vive avec un homme ou une femme politique et 97% se déclarent "pas gênés" par le fait que le présentateur soit de couleur.

Sorrell warns of e-communities ?threat?: Media owners must find ways to attract and retain talent and create stand-alone digital divisions in order to compete in the era of internet blogs, open access and online communities, Sir Martin Sorrell, the chief executive of WPP, has warned.
The head of the UK advertising group also acknowledged the difficulty of competing against websites that destroyed business models. ?How do you deal with socialistic anarchists?? he asked, referring to Craigslist, the popular, free classified advertising site that has been threatening revenues at US city newspapers.
?The internet is the most socialistic force you?ve ever seen,? he added, noting that the response from some media groups had been to offer their content for free in traditional and digital form.
?They have decided ? ?if I don?t eat my children, somebody else will?,? he told executives from UK regional newspapers attending an industry conference, adding that he disapproved of giving away content for free. ?You should charge for it if the consumer values the content,? he said.
Sir Martin believes that the shortage in human capital would be one of the main challenges facing companies in the future, and successful companies were those that could ?find, retain, and incentivise good people?.

Pentagon sets its sights on social networking websites: "I AM continually shocked and appalled at the details people voluntarily post online about themselves." So says Jon Callas, chief security officer at PGP, a Silicon Valley-based maker of encryption software. He is far from alone in noticing that fast-growing social networking websites such as MySpace and Friendster are a snoop's dream.
New Scientist has discovered that Pentagon's National Security Agency, which specialises in eavesdropping and code-breaking, is funding research into the mass harvesting of the information that people post about themselves on social networks. And it could harness advances in internet technology - specifically the forthcoming "semantic web" championed by the web standards organisation W3C - to combine data from social networking websites with details such as banking, retail and property records, allowing the NSA to build extensive, all-embracing personal profiles of individuals.

Tendências:
Taking the paper out of newspapers: News companies need to come to terms with the fact that they are "in the business of writing news, not necessarily printing it on paper." That's the premise advocated by media mogul Rupert Murdoch -- who just added the popular myspace.com, a huge mainstream blogging/social networking site, to his portfolio, which includes TV and radio stations, and dozens of newspapers around the globe.
But English-speaking newspaper companies, in particular, may find this transition difficult to swallow, especially since, according to Columbia University media expert Eli Noam, English is one of the rare languages where the word "newspaper" actually has the word "paper" in it. In other languages, the linguistic concept itself is not so directly tied to a mass-market wood-based product.
Hundreds of magazines launch, but few survive: More than 1,000 new titles were launched last year, including Men?s Vogue, Hollywood Dog and Poker Life.
By May of this year, nearly 300 more had hit the bookstore shelves, testing the waters of fickle consumerism, with Fertility Today, Real Fighter and Wine Adventure among them.
So many promising glossy pages. So little time.
More than half of them won?t survive their first year ? in fact, 63 percent will die a public death, predicts Samir Husni, chair of the journalism department at the University of Mississippi.
On The Sunny Side Of The Street: Because believe it or not, in 2006 Wall Street likes Big Media. Year to date, the Bloomberg Media Index [...] has far outperformed the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index -- 7.7% to 1.2%, as of June 9.
All Web sites are alike. Regardless of their owners, they can all do the same set of things. In that fact lies the profound crisis facing all aspects of the media industry. [...]
Coke can release music; ABC can publish articles; and Forbes or The New York Times can broadcast video.
In Media, Rex: So meet the SOMSM -- State-Owned Mainstream Media. You know, like PBS, only more so. Now wait just a second, you might be thinking -- the same governments that gave us the Post Office are going to give us the news? How could that be? [...]
Every country with ambitions on the international stage will soon have its own state-supported media.
If war is too important to be left to generals, then news is too important to be left to reporters. Governments, including ours, have their own ideas, and they want to share them with us, the people -- like it or not.
In addition, around the world, states will want to "help" their media. Not satisfied with what the free market is bringing about, politicians will offer to help out the invisible hand -- help it, that is, with their own iron fist.

Dutch World Cup fans had to shed pants: FIFA confirmed to the Australian Broadcasting Corp. that the fans were told they had to shed their pants if they wanted to get into the stadium to cheer their team to victory Friday.

Budweiser beer had exclusive advertising and promotional rights to the stadium, so stadium officials made the Dutch fans shed their logos before they were allowed entry.

Budweiser beer had exclusive advertising and promotional rights to the stadium, so stadium officials made the Dutch fans shed their logos before they were allowed entry.
Children miss match in World Cup scam: The 350 children and 31 teachers from ten schools paid £399 for a ?World Cup Experience? weekend, which included tickets to the Portugal-Iran game in Frankfurt. But they were told on arrival at their youth hostels in Germany that their travel agents had been defrauded by an internet ticketing agency and they would not be attending the game.

This would exclude for example, a blog put up by the local village football team, even if it is sponsored, for example, by the local building firm.

Carrilho em blogue (Bloco de Notas): pequeno pacote de ideias que ajudem a combater com eficácia a opacidade e a impunidade mediáticas, e que favoreçam a transparência nas diversas actividades da comunicação social.
Esse pacote é constituido por quatro propostas e um voto.
As propostas são as seguintes:
1ª - Que os jornalistas , para lá das incompatibilidades já estabelecidas na lei, passem a ser sujeitos a um registo público de interesses.
(Este passo é, no actual contexto, absolutamente necessário. E é preciso colocar já no horizonte um outro, caso a auto-regulação deontológica se continue a deteriorar e a mercenarização se continue a agravar -: o da sua declaração de património e de rendimentos.)
2ª - Que esta obrigatoriedade se alargue também aos comentadores regulares e remunerados da comunicação social, na imprensa, na rádio e na televisão.
3ª - Que se criem mecanismos sancionatórios efectivos das más práticas do jornalismo, que punam, com eficácia, as violações do seu Código Deontológico.
4ª - Quanto às ?agências de comunicação?, devem regulamentar-se as suas actividades, em particular na sua vertente informativa, com o estabelecimento de um «código de conduta» muito claro, bem como das sanções da sua transgressão.

Why we are all journalists now: The implications of the California decision are profound as they may change more than just journalism.
The premise of press-specific legal protections is that journalists do more than just inform - they keep our leaders and institutions accountable to the public. In order to persuade sources to reveal information hidden from view, they depend upon assurances of absolute confidentiality.
The California court examined the state of online journalism and found that it too deserves the legal protections crafted for the press.
In doing so, it has extended those protections to everyone, effectively stating that we can all play a role in keeping our leaders accountable. We are all journalists now.

À atenção dos jornalistas: Press Releases Are More Popular Than Reported News, Says Study: [Outsell VP and analyst Roger] Strouse posits several possible explanations for the rising popularity of press releases. "It may be that press releases are easier for people to get their hands on," he says. "It may be that press releases are shorter and pithier. It may be that they're oftentimes free and come right into an RSS reader." [...]

Star power: Celebrities have a legal right to prevent the commercial use of their images without permission. But are they silencing artists and satirists as well? [...]
"Our culture values celebrity, that's just a commercial reality. The question is who should be able to make money off of that celebrity. Should it be the individual or his or her family?

The internet's perfect for all manner of things, but productive discussion ain't one of them. It provides scant room for debate and infinite opportunities for fruitless point-scoring: the heady combination of perceived anonymity, gestated responses, random heckling and a notional "live audience" quickly conspire to create a "perfect storm" of perpetual bickering.

Newspapers woo bloggers with mixed results: Blogs written by so-called citizen journalists are increasingly challenging newspapers for readers. According to a recent study by Forrester Research, blogs and newspaper Web sites now have the same audience share--about 17 percent--among Internet users between the ages of 18 and 24.
"Newspapers still have a larger overall audience," says Charlene Li, a Forrester analyst. "But blogs are catching up quickly."
