06/28/2004 05:24 AMInternet radio services keep getting better and attracting bigger
audiences. Digital features like personalization and variety blow away
anything on the airwaves. But some of the services are better than
others. Katie Dean reviews a few top choices.

Tune Media Announce Tune-Up for
GarageBand
07/06/2004 04:56 PMTune-Up for GarageBand is a collection of over 500 loops exclusively
created in Apple Loop format for use in GarageBand. Unlike many other
loop producers we offer a variety of loops, this is probably the
nearest thing out there to Apple's own Jam Pack. We want to give users
the ability to create whole tracks using our loops rather than just
giving them a disc full of drums. Tune-Up Pack 1 is available at just
$34.99 including delivery worldwide....an absolute bargain!

Web Searchers Search Around
Web Searchers Search Around
02/17/2004 01:15 PMDespite conventional wisdom saying that people just use Google for
their web searches, a new study suggests that
web
searchers are not particularly monogamous when it comes to
searching. While, yes, most people do use Google, they're not afraid
to use other search engines when necessary. Most people tend to use
two different search engines on a regular basis. The study suggests
that a better search engine doesn't necessarily need to worry so much
about prying people away from Google. There's also a ton of people
who
don't use search at all (who are these people?) - and the
study suggests that MSN and Yahoo might want to target these people.
On the whole, I'd think that converting a Google searcher may be
easier, though, than convincing someone who doesn't bother searching
at all why they need to start using a search engine. Still, this does
suggest some of the reasons why search engines are suddenly all
talking about personalization features to make their search "sticky".
If it's customized to you, the theory goes, you'll want to come back.
The problem with that theory is that not everyone really wants
customized search, and depending on how it's set up, it could end up
annoying users more than helping them.
What Do Intranet Searchers Want?
What Do Intranet Searchers Want?
05/16/2004 06:37 AMWhat Do Intranet Searchers Want?http://www.acmqueue.com/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid
=140Almost all of the information in an enterprise is
unstructured data -- existing in the form of HTML pages, documents in
proprietary formats, paper and media objects, etc. As a result,
enterprise search differs from Internet search in several important
ways. First, on the Internet a user usually seeks the "best" or most
relevant document -- whereas on an intranet a searcher is often
looking for some specific document that she or he has seen in the
past. Second, the Internet reflects the collective voice of many
authors -- whereas an intranet typically reflects the view of the
organization it serves (and so intranet content is created to
disseminate information rather than attract and hold the attention of
casual searchers). A third difference is that an Internet search
engine is controlled and managed by one organization as a service --
whereas enterprise search software is licensed to and deployed by a
variety of organizations in diverse environments, and imposes varying
hardware constraints, software platforms, bandwidth, firewalls,
heterogeneous content repositories, security models, document formats,
user communities, interfaces, and geographic distribution.

Disney asks FCC to lock up all the

Disney asks FCC to lock up all the
record-buttons
08/07/2004 05:31 AMDigging through some FCC filings, my cow-orker Fred von Lohmann turned
up a bit of Disney magic that tips the company's hand: they're
planning to lock up everything capable of recording audio.
Well, in their latest comments, Disney (which is an RIAA
member, and owns ABC Radio Networks and four record labels) let slip
what this is all about:
In addition, to the extent the Commission considers such a
content protection mechanism, it should also consider whether to
extend
that mechanism to all music distribution platforms, including
satellite digital audio radio service, the Internet and broadcast
radio service.
Got that? Disney wants the FCC to regulate all devices capable of
recording from any audio broadcasting medium or from the
Internet. FM radio, XM, Sirius, Streamripper, Total Recorder,
you're all in the crosshairs. It's the Hollings
Bill all over again.

Thanks, Donna!)

"What do you call it when three IE buttons on the Windows Taskbar

open a fourth IE window? Annoying? Nope. The correct answer is U.S.
