Leading French librarian calls for European counter to Google

Leading French librarian calls for
European counter to Google
03/19/2005 02:55 AM

The head librarian of the Bibliothèque nationale de France has called for a European digitization project to counter or balance Google. Jean-Noël Jeanneney critized Google for cultural bias :

the criteria of choice will be heavily influenced -- even if we contribute ourselves, uncomplainingly, to the riches of this project -- by a point of view which is Anglo-Saxon, with its specific approach to the diversities of human civilization.

Google Loses Second French Trademark
Lawsuit
02/05/2005 09:48 PM
Coming just weeks after a French court seemed to misunderstand the purpose of trademarks a second French court has ruled that Google cannot sell ads based on trademarked keywords. This time, the case was brought by Louis Vuitton Malletier. Here, the argument appears to make a bit more sense on its face, as it wasn't competitors that LVM was worried about, but counterfeiters selling products to people who searched on the Louis Vuitton name. Except... that's wrong. Louis Vuitton Malletier should be going after the counterfeiters, not Google. The counterfeiters are the ones who are breaking trademark law by advertising products that aren't actually Louis Vuitton. So, why is Google involved at all? They're just offering the platform by which these ads are placed and shouldn't be responsible at all for the content of those ads. Furthermore, as long as the ads aren't confusing buyers about the nature of the products, then there's no reason for it to be trademark infringement. It's just in cases where there is confusion -- and then it's the company doing the confusing that should be taken to court.

Google#8217;s new video search sounds really cool, but I just can#8217;t seem to get behind it. As cool as it sounds, I find that I am coming away from the experience feeling like there is simply something missing. Being I have yet to see ANY video clips at all with the service, I think the beta program seriously should be renamed something else entirely#8230;. pa href=http://channels.lockergnome.com/news/archives/20050126_google_cal ls_this_video_search.phtmlDirect and Related Links for 'Google calls this Video Search?!'/a/p
