Future of TV. Brand content. 4chan déclare la guerre à la France : "Pourrissons leurs sites" - LePost.fr.

Nom de l'opération : "Onion".Objectif : pourrir les sites Internet des institutions françaises. Les membres de 4chan ont la rage. Il faut dire que les Frenchies leur ont joué un sacré tour. Le 300.000.000e message publié mardi sur le forum, attendu comme le messie, représente le drapeau français. Un affront pour les utilisateurs de 4chan, en grande partie américains, connus pour avoir créé de nombreux buzz (citons pour seul exemple le cultissime phénomène des LoLcats).

Sitôt la publication effectuée, les messages d'insultes s'empilent par centaines, le "fuck France" remportant haut la main la palme de l'expression la plus récurrente. Des membres de 4chan, qui se font appeler les "anonymous" (car ils publient anonymement), appellent à pourrir les sites Internet du gouvernement français : "préparez-vous pour l'opération ognion", lit-on sur ce post.

9 Websites to Learn the Basics About html 5. Recently, I’ve been getting into html5 a lot more. I maybe a little late, but I don’t think there’s something new out right now, so I will keep learning more about it until something else comes out. In this post, I have 9 Website to Learn the Basics About html 5. Web pages will now be more semantic with the use of structured specific tags. Now, you can add rounded corners , drag and drop, and drop shadows.

How BBC London is experimenting with social media to cover the Tube strike | Social media agency London | FreshNetworks blog. If you’re based in London you probably know the disruption and frustration caused when there is a strike on the Tube – especially more so as the strikes are often timed to cause maximum impact on journeys to and from work. If you are based out of London you probably care less. But for all people the current strike that started today is a good example of how broadcasters are using social media both as an information source but also as a broadcast medium. BBC London News (@BBCLondonNews) has been using Twitter for some time as a source information, comment and research for pieces.

Most notably through certain reporters such as Matt Cooke (@MattCooke_UK) who have built a presence on Twitter. This is a common use of social media among news organisations, and we wrote last year about the benefits (and challenges) of user-generated news. The BBC is experimenting with social media to map and report on the tube strike and the impact it is having: the London Tube Strike Map.

It’s not all about content and work « BuzzMachine. In his column complaining about Huffington Post and the new economics of content competition, I think David Carr makes two understandable but fundamentally fallacious assumptions about news and media: that the value in journalism is in content and that making content must be work. Because that’s the way it used to be. In their op-ed the next day in The New York Times complaining about copyright losing its hardness, Scott Turow, Paul Aiken, and James Shapiro extend the error to entertainment, assuming that content is entertainment and content is what content makers make.

Not necessarily. Pull back to view the true value of these things: information, knowledge, enlightenment, amusement, experience, engagement. That is why old media people are missing new opportunities. Why do people write on Huffington Post? Is there still a role for the journalist, the professional, the artist in this? If you concentrate on the value, not the form — content — then the possibilities explode. Presse US: la leçon d’histoire (et d’économie) de Google. C'est un argumentaire envoyé à la Federal Trade Commission (FTC - commission fédérale du commerce américaine, dont la mission est la "protection du consommateur" (sic)...) dans le cadre d'une discussion sur les "solutions pour réinventer le journalisme".

Dans cette discussion, la FTC constate que la presse a besoin de protéger ses droits contre les moteurs de recherche et les agrégateurs qui "exploitent les contenus protégés par les droits d'auteur sans les payer". On connait la chanson. Dans un document de 20 pages, Google répond à cette attaque par son argumentaire habituel (mais de bon sens) à savoir que les moteurs de recherche ne pillent pas l'info, mais font des liens, rendent un service en mettant en scène, et en rendant accessibles les contenus pertinents par rapport aux requêtes des utilisateurs.

More Americans than ever are multitasking while they watch TV, according to a new survey from Deloitte. Between September 10 and October 8, 2010, Deloitte polled 2,000 U.S. consumers ages 14 to 75 on their digital habits. Unsurprisingly, it found that Americans are plugged in. Eighty-five percent own a desktop computer, yet another 68% own a laptop or a netbook and another 41% have Internet-enabled phones. Moreover, one-third of American households now own a smartphone, up from 22% in 2007. TV is still king, though; 74% of U.S. consumers still watch TV primarily on their TV sets, and a full 59% of U.S. households now own flat-screen TVs. In 2007, that number was just 17%. The TV-watching experience is changing, too. The survey also addresses the decline of print media. We're a bit surprised to see that print magazine subscriptions haven't dropped off like a cliff in recent years, but they are definitely falling, and it's forcing publishers to make hard choices.

Trends in Consumers’ Time Spent with Media - eMarketer - Emmanuel Vivier Lifestream : Buzz, Digital, Viral & social media marketing expert. “Smart editorial, smart readers, and smart ad solutions”: Slate makes a case for long-form on the web. Via blogs, or, more likely, Twitter, you might have come across the breezy term “tl;dr.” Which is short — appropriately — for “too long; didn’t read.” Yes. You know the conventional wisdom: long-form journalism doesn’t do well on the web. Our attention spans are too short and sentences are too long and and we’re too easily distrac — oooh, Macy’s is having a sale! — and, anyway, complex narratives are inefficient for a culture that wants its information short, sweet, and yesterday. Long, carefully wrought articles are tasty, sure; online, though, the news we consume is best served up quick-n-easy.

The web isn’t Chez Panisse so much as a series of Sizzlers. Whether or not that kind of thinking is valid from the psychological perspective, a more relevant question, for our purposes, is whether it’s valid from the financial one.
