New from Amazon's A9.com Search - Yellow Pages on A9.com: "Using trucks equipped with digital cameras, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, and proprietary software and hardware, A9.com drove tens of thousands of miles capturing images and matching them with businesses and the way they look from the street." The most powerful technology A9.com invented for Yellow Pages is “Block View,” which brings the Yellow Pages to life by showing a street view of millions of businesses and their surroundings. Using trucks equipped with digital cameras, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, and proprietary software and hardware, A9.com drove tens of thousands of miles capturing images and matching them with businesses and the way they look from the street. The whole process (except for the driving!) is completely automatic, making it fast and efficient. Block View allows users to see storefronts and virtually walk up and down the streets of currently more than 10 U.S. cities using over 20 million photographs. We are driving and at some point hope to cover the whole country.[beSpacific January 27, 2005] This has been added to eCommerce Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Changes, Changes: Amazon Stops Printing
Pages, MIT Shuts Down TV Music
10/31/2003 08:30 PM
Two followups to popular stories this week. First there was the suppose d legal "loophole" that was going to let students at MIT broadcast MP3s over their TVs. I still don't see how this is any different than something like a Live365 broadcast, but what do I know? Anyway, despite all the news articles saying how brilliant this was for side-stepping legal issues, it appears that not everyone agrees. The students who built the system claimed they had a license from the Harry Fox Agency to use the music, but the Harry Fox Agency said that was news to them. So, now, MIT has shut down the system while the legal issues get sorted out. Meanwhile, as the Authors Guild continued to worry about Amazon's full text search feature, Amazon has possibly modified the system to no longer permit printing of pages. I just went and checked, and I could print out a page, so maybe I'm missing something here - or maybe it's only for certain books. Of course, even if they did implement this, I imagine that the easy work around for this is to take a screen shot of the page, and print the image, but I've probably violated the DMCA suggesting that.

The bad news: Si gne Brander's photography book sold out on the first morning it was available and, when we checked back today, will remain so until another printing comes along in mid-February.

The good news: Canal+ now features The Daily Show on weekdays with a 1-day lag. :)
