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've always been able to share mix tapes with friends, and many people will agree that getting a mix tape from a friend has introduced them to bands that they otherwise wouldn't have known about. MixxMaker takes this idea to another level.
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.

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. No one in Redmond would willingly take a sharp blade to the throat of that golden cash cow, but Microsoft had to do something to appeal to people who have embraced software as a service concepts for, among other things, productivity applications.

76% of Canadians believe government should pass a law to protect consumers' right to access online content of their choice TORONTO, Oct. 1 /CNW/ - Most Canadians are unaware of an emerging threat to their ability to access web-based information and services, according to data released today. A poll conducted by Leger Marketing found that Canadians are generally unaware of the concept of "net neutrality," the principle that Internet service providers should not be allowed to impose restrictions on the web content or applications consumers can access. The concept of prioritizing Internet traffic or "traffic shaping" has been proposed by Internet service providers as a way to fund the upgrade or expansion of their networks. The study, commissioned by eBay Canada in June, found that although just 34 per cent of Canadians are familiar with the term net neutrality, 67 per cent agree with the principle once it is explained.
