Is Online Registration For News A Ploy
To Make Online News Look Bad? 09/17/2004 02:31 PM
These days, I very rarely agree with anything written by John C. Dvorak, who seems to be spending his time not really understanding what's happening in technology. However, his latest column has an interesting theory. We've been talking a lot about how many newspapers have a backwar ds thinking policy requiring registration just to read the same AP and Reuters stories everyone else has. The public claim is that they're doing this to give their advertisers more data about their visitors, but the amount of dirty data that goes into these databases suggests that doesn't make much sense -- and could get them in legal trouble. Others point out that online editions are really doing this to get email for the sake of selling their mailing lists to marketing spammers, which does make some sense, though isn't a particularly well thought-out strategy for long term success. Dvorak's take, however, is that newspapers are doing this to keep people out on purpose. The idea is that newspapers want to play down their online operations, to show that their paper editions are still much more important. He believes they don't want the online editions to be profitable, as that would mean serious changes for their business. If true, this is an incredibly stupid position, basically trying to convince themselves that news isn't moving online when it really is. It's even worse than just not believing what's happening -- it's working to screw up the data they use themselves in figuring out what's happening. Honestly, though, this seems unlikely. It would involve too much thought. It seems, more likely, that the push towards online registration is from newspapers who haven't really thought the issues through, but who think this will somehow pay off.

A Comfortable Future for PC/104

A Comfortable Future for PC/104 03/19/2005 02:48 AM
J. Eric Gulliksen, Embedded Hardware Practice Director at VDC, notes additional factors that will insure the continuing viability of PC/104. "Several small 'stackable' embedded motherboard form factors, including 3½", 5¼", EBX and the new EPIC, may be provided with PC/104 family expansion. These provide a wider range of choices for designers when selecting a control module. Pentium-M and Celeron-M CPUs, with power-and-clock stepping technologies, are enhancing the computing power capabilities of these small boards, without aggravating thermal problems."

Some People Still Won't Get Online 12/29/2003 03:36 AM
While for many of us, the internet has become a central part of our lives, there are still many Americans who haven't bothered with the internet. In many cases, it is still a money issue. While it's getting cheaper all the time, for some it's still difficult to justify a computer purchase and a monthly ISP. For others, it's a fear issue. There are so many stories about all the bad stuff online that many are afraid to even try it out.

Lots More People Shop Offline, Buy
Online 09/23/2004 03:21 AM
Last year, people ripped me to shreds for mentioning there were times that I would window shop in a store, but eventually buy online. Well, if that's as evil as people made it out to be, it appears I'm in some good company. A new study says that nearly 70% of people now admit to doing some offline browsing, before purchasing online. The thing is, to me, it's no different than comparison shopping offline. If I'm looking to buy something, I may visit a few stores offline before finding a reasonable deal. Sometimes, a store will immediately offer a good enough deal, or a level of convenience or additional value that it's worth buying right away -- and sometimes not. Sites online are just one more place to comparison shop. At the same time, the reverse is true as well in some cases. There are plenty of times I've researched products online before buying locally at a store. Either way, it's clear that most people now have no qualms looking for the deal that makes the most sense for them, whether it's on or offline -- and both sides need to learn to deal with that.

People Want To Blame Anyone Else For Any
Illegal Activity They Do Online

People Want To Blame Anyone Else For Any
Illegal Activity They Do Online 06/14/2004 01:17 PM
It's already been well established in this "me first" society that no one takes responsibilities for their own illegal actions. For example, just a few weeks ago, we wrote about the student who was suing his university for kicking him out for plagiarizing. He admitted he cheated, but felt it was the university's job to have caught him earlier. This same logic seems to be catching on with any number of folks who post information online. A new study shows that many people feel that they should not be blamed if they put unlawful content online. While you can make reasonable arguments (depending on the circumstances) why they may not be liable, it's more interesting to look at who they do think should take the blame. 30% said the ISP should take the blame for not stopping the user from posting the illegal content. Another 15% blamed the government, who obviously has better things to do than running the country and, instead, should be policing online message boards to make sure no one posted false information. Finally, in the ultimate desperation move, 11% say that the blame should fall on those who accessed the content rather than themselves, the posters of the content. That would be a fun court argument: "Yes, your honor, I did post confidential corporate information publicly on a Yahoo message board - but no harm would have been done if no one had visited it! Thus, the blame, sadly, must fall on each and every visitor who caused the company trouble by looking at that content." Of course, with so many news articles claiming (incorrectly) that people are being sued for downloading (and not uploading) music files, perhaps we know where this line of thought comes from.

New Study Says People Not Afraid To Shop
Online 05/10/2004 01:30 PM
It was just last week (wasn't it?) that we had a study (paid for by a company that wanted to provide secure transaction software) saying that people were going to shop less online due to fear of fraud and scams like phishing (which have nothing to do with shopping online). This week, thanks to some research paid for by PayPal/eBay we have a study saying exactly the opposite. It turns out, according to this study, that the increase in stories about these scams means that shoppers are much more sophisticated and careful about buying online, but they're planning to buy more and many feel the internet is much safer for shopping these days. In other words, you can't trust either study as both are impossibly biased by the money that paid for them.

Shocker: More People Prefer Online Car
Sales To Dealing With Dealers

Shocker: More People Prefer Online Car
Sales To Dealing With Dealers 04/11/2005 03:31 PM
Can you possibly imagine that people wouldn't like going in to car dealers and buying cars from a profession that seems to be defined by its own sleaze? Indeed, it appears that the less sleaze-inducing internet route for buying cars is picking up steam -- with plenty of car purchases originating online. Also, person-to-person car sales have been increasing as the internet has aided that process, and cut out the need for dealers to broker those types of sales. Meanwhile, fewer people seem to be going to the old newspaper classified section to find out about car deals, as it just doesn't seem efficient any more. The car sellers are looking elsewhere and car buyers prefer going online and avoiding dealers as much as possible as well.

Latest Study Says People Sharing Fewer
Files Online 01/05/2004 03:42 AM
The recording industry is cheering about how the latest study from the folks at the Pew Internet and American Life project says that fewer people are saying they're downloading music. Beyond the obvious problem that this study only counts what people say they're doing, I don't think it's surprising at all. Of course people are going to be more cautious when there's a chance they're going to get sued. However, I don't see how this is a good thing. All they've done is annoy a bunch of people who should be their best customers. That doesn't seem like very smart business.
