MixxMaker: The Mix Tape Goes Online - AppScout A lot of services allow you to create custom playlists and share them with your friends, but not so many of them allow your friends to hear the music in your playlist. MixxMaker is a service that gives you a place to create virtual mix tapes, load them up with music depending on the theme or your mood, and then post them for passive viewing on Facebook. If your friends are Facebook members and have you listed as a friend, they can listen to your playlists, give you feedback, and even add music to the mix. MixxMaker wants to take the mix tape online and breathe new life into the idea. You can create playlists of music that you already own using the service, and title it based on a theme or a mood. You then choose a theme for your playlist--music that should be your theme song, for example--and then assemble your playlist. The next step is to share it with others, and this is where MixxMaker's real strengths lie. MixxMaker walks the fair-use line very carefully.

Best Buy tries to copyright sales prices Deal site BlackFriday.info yesterday removed the Best Buy "Black Friday" sales price list after the big box retailer threatened to deliver a DMCA takedown notice to Black Friday's ISP. In a brief posting, Black Friday said, "While we believe that sale prices are facts and not copyrightable, we do not want to risk having this website shut down due to a DMCA take down notice." In recent years, information on the post-Thanksgiving sales has become a highly prized commodity, with a number of sites featuring copies of major retailers' ads. Consumers looking for the best prices and wanting to streamline their shopping are responsible for the sites' popularity. Deal sites such as BlackFriday and Fat Wallet are a source of irritation to retailers at this time of year, although DMCA takedown notices tend to be the exception rather than the rule. In November 2003, Best Buy issued a takedown notices to FatWallet over a Black Friday ad posted on the site.

Early Look: Microsoft Office Live Workspace We have picked up a trio of screenshots of the forthcoming Office Live Workspace, which we’re just thrilled beyond rational thought to share with you. Pre-registration for the beta version of Office Live Workspace opened at the beginning of October. Microsoft has positioned the service as an online complement to the desktop version of Microsoft Office. The Office productivity suite represents a significant portion of Microsoft’s annual revenue. Office Live Workspace represents a compromise. Each of the following screenshots are clickable; even I’m not mean enough to make you squint for details. Here is a view of shared workspace projects and programs, with a listing of documents and files in the workspace and the status of each: The last screenshot shows the ability to preview Microsoft Office files, in this case a PowerPoint slide, within the browser: Early Look: Microsoft Office Live Workspace
