Millions 10/31/2003 11:44 AM
Beck writes "Maybe women don't want to be seen visiting the adult book store in the red light district, but they're flocking to adult web sites. According to Nielsen NetRatings, nearly one in three visitors to adult web sites is a woman. The news article goes on to describe how some women think it is healthy and normal, and others think it can lead to problems. In any case it appears to be a common misperception that it is only men who visit pornographic web sites. There are a few interesting anecdotes in the article, including one where the editors of Today's Christian Woman magazine found in a survey that 34 percent of their readers had intentionally visited porn sites."

Today at 2005 International CES, Microsoft Corp. announced broad, additional support for the PlaysForSure™ logo program - both for devices and upcoming services. In addition to many portable music players that are PlaysForSure-verified, there are now new televisions and DVD players designed for PlaysForSure compatibility that feature built-in connections to wireless or wired home networks for the easy playback of photos, as well as subscription-based music and video via a Windows® XP-based PC. At CES 2005, D-Link Systems Inc. and Digitrex debuted connected high-definition (HD) TVs, HD displays and DVD players designed to be part of the PlaysForSure logo program, and Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. demonstrated a concept plasma display. In addition, a range of new color-screen, mini-hard-drive portable devices supporting both music and photos are designed to be PlaysForSure-verified, including the Gateway MP3 Photo Jukebox, iriver H10 and the Samsung YH-925 and YH-820. First announced at Microsoft's Digital Entertainment Anywhere launch event in October, the PlaysForSure logo is designed to help consumers with Windows XP-based PCs choose devices and online music and video stores that work together, taking the guesswork out of compatibility.

That's "Vacation" with a Capital "V" 04/09/2004 04:13 PM

So, my site is on the new LISHost server, just in time to sit idle for a while. I'm heading off to a much anticipated vacation, sans laptop, so things will be even quieter around here than they have been lately (at least until the 19th, maybe later). Please also note that I won't be reading any news during that time, and I'm already so far behind in my email it's no longer a joke, so responses will be delayed even longer than usual. Sorry, but it's vacation, don't you know.

One last pointer that I've been quite remiss in posting until now. Library Journal's 2004 Movers & Shakers list is out, and I'm beyond pleased to see Steven M. Cohen and Lori Bell on it! Congratulations to both of them, as well as to all of the folks included on this year's list! I'm looking forward to reading through all of the write-ups and learning lots of great new things!

Venture Capital 101 01/06/2005 06:55 AM

In all the speculation about the deal I haven't seen what surely is the motivator. Six Apart plans to go public. The market will value SA based on it's ability to generate profits, and it will likely do so in proportion to the number of users, the theory being that they can sell things to the users, so the more users, the more they can sell. They might value each user at $100. Anyway, the more users the more value. LJ has a lot of users. So the founders of LJ get SA stock, and the shareholders in SA get more users, and value of the combined companies goes up and the day of the IPO gets closer.

Is Venture Capital Over?

Is Venture Capital Over? 04/14/2005 04:52 AM
A well known venture capitalist is apparently claiming that the age of the VC is over, and is getting out of the business. The specifics of his claim are that VCs won't be able to earn the same sorts of returns they did in the 90s, which he chalks up to "systemic change." If anything, it sounds like he's channeling Nicho las Carr, who believes the tech industry is becoming commoditized and boring (misunderstanding that things first get interesting when stuff gets commoditized). Of course, the silly thing is that he seems to be comparing today's VC returns to what you could get in the 90s. He claims that "the eye-popping returns that make venture capital famous are history." Of course, the easy response to that is that perhaps most of the "eye-popping returns" were the aberration in the first place, built on the bubble of hype-cycles past. That means there's still plenty of opportunity in real innovation -- and even without that, you can bet that there will be more hype cycles and bubbles. History< /a> practically guarantees it. While bubbles aren't good for everyone, good VCs generally are able to make out quite well (since they bail out early enough) -- and we've already explained why bubbl es eventually are good for most people. While it's bad for those who get sucked up in the hype, it does accelerate innovation by allowing a lot of companies to quickly test (and discard!) many different ideas.
