Lost Revenue? Nope ... Just Lost

04/15/2005 06:43 PM
Whenever we hear about established industries whining about how much money they're losing from alternative forms of media consumption, we just shake our heads. If you do too, then brace your neck before reading on. A new study by Accenture says that TV networks will "lose" $27 billion in the coming five years because of ad skipping by DVR users. Not being able to read the full story on AdAge, we can only assume that Accenture thinks advertisers will pull back from the networks to the tune of $5-plus billion per year, simply because DVR watchers can skip ads. Not likely. The connection is highly dubious and the figures are entirely far-fetched. Yet even more troubling is the age-old "lost money" methodology. Each ad skip does not proportionally diminish the network's coffers -- no money is being subtracted from their bottom line. Rather, any "losses" from ad skipping would come from the network's inability to adapt to new trends and attract those dollars elsewise. The networks are losing money to ad-skipping no more than record companies are losing money to downloads. The quicker they see these as lost opportunities, instead of lost dollars, the better for them.

Searching the Invisible Tabs

Searching the Invisible Tabs
http ://searchenginewatch.com/searchday/article.php/3115131

Tired of wading through thousands -- possibly millions -- of results to your Web searches? How would it be if search engines offered lists of category tabs -- so you could confine your search to relevant Web sites? Too restrictive, too cumbersome (after all, how many categories would there need to be)? Well then, how about invisible tabs -- behind-the-scenes functions that would automatically categorize your query and deliver results within that category? AskJeeves and others already do it to a degree. Example: Test AskJeeves against Google for "pictures of DNA." AskJeeves delivers images; Google offers a list of URLs. "It's not rocket science to see your query and decide that it makes sense to push the invisible image tab for you. But the change it produces, and perceived relevance to me, is dramatic," says SearchEngineWatch.com editor Danny Sullivan. To avoid frustrating searchers by, say, returning shopping lists instead product reviews, the search engine might come back with questions formatted as listings: "What would you like to do? Show me prices for this product from merchants across the Web; Show me product reviews from across the Web; Show me general matching content from across the Web."

Approaches for the too-many-tabs problem


Approaches for the too-many-tabs problem 12/02/2003 01:27 AM

tabs.gif
I've seen various, slightly differing solutions to the too-many-tabs-to-fit problem recently. Amazon does a "more tabs" thing at the right, the new AOL has an embedded tab scrolling thing (the tabs that are not embedded don't scroll, thus allowing for a selection of more important tabs that are always visible), and SAP has a scrolling tab solution without the tabs that stay (couldn't find a screenshot...). Point to other solutions in the comments and I'll add screenshots.

It seems like the too-many-tabs problem is slowly coalescing towards a standard solution for websites.

I've seen the Mac solution below being used on a weblog at one point, but I can't find it anymore. Anyone?

IE Tabs Suck Memory Too


IE Tabs Suck Memory Too 06/17/2005 04:33 PM
Adam Stiles notes that Microsoft's IE Tabs Suck Memory like there's no tomorrow: I never considered the possibility that each IE7 tab would have its own copy of 3rd party toolbars. But that's the direction Microsoft has taken. What's the problem with that approach? Every time you open a new browser tab (which tabbed browser users do much more frequently than single-window browser users), you have to create new instances of any 3rd-party bars. Ouch.

09/17/2004 12:28 PM
The multiple tab feature of Firefox (and Opera before it) is enough of a reason to drop Microsoft Internet Explorer ... which, apparently, people are doing at an increased pace, although IE still has something like 93% of the market. But I currently have 31 instances of Firefox open, each with 1-4 tabs. So, I'd like an extension that lists all the open tabs in all the open instances. My dream extension would let me jump to any of those tabs. It would also let me close them or close multiple instances with a single click. And it would give...

Tabs
09/17/2004 12:41 PM
The new version of Mozilla Firefox is out and supports RSS. Don Park calls the RSS support "crappy and useless." Question: One of my favorite features in Safari for OS X is the little circled X in each tab, so you can close it by clicking on the actual tab instead of having to go all the way to the right side of the window in Firefox to click the close-the-tab X there. Is there any Firefox add-on that makes it do the same thing?

Zorn Whups Chicagoist’s Ass

“In the wee final moments of Thursday night, Chicagoist received an e-mail from Chicagoist's favorite professional blogger and columnist Mr. Eric Zorn.

The subject line: ‘whup ass report -- Nexis

Seems Chicagoist may have inadvertently overstated things yesterday when we said getting the phrase ‘can of whup-ass’ into the pages of the &lsq uo;stuffy and stodgy Tribune’ signaled a ‘hope for tomorrow,’ as Zorn uncovered at least four previous occasions when said phrase has appeared in the Trib. Using his trusty Lexis-Nexis, Zorn found the mentions and they go clear back into 2001.

While one Chicagoist staff member was heard to say that if Zorn wants to lend us the cash to get a subscription to Lexis-Nexis we'd be happy to check for such things, and while two of the references are found in the pages of Red Eye, Chicagoist knows when we've had our asses handed to us and we can admit it….” [Chicagoist]

I was going to leave a comment on the Chicagoist site to the effect that while they may not have access to Lexis-Nexis, they most certainly have access to a far wider range of materials that most definitely includes an archive of the Chicago Tribune, all for free, thanks to their local public library. Except that in this case, that local public library is the Chicago Public Library. In order to prove my point, I searched for a list of the databases to which they offer access. Guess what? No list. Just a link to “Chicago WebFeat Remote Authentication.” What on earth do you suppose is a WebFeat Remote Authentication, much less a Chicago one?

That’s when I realized that Chicagoist doesn’t know the answer to that question, either, and really, why should they? So to Chicagoist, trust me that your search would have gotten you what you needed if the page had been labeled something that made sense and provided any type of explanation or list at all. Bookmark that page, because there’s a wealth of information available to you from it (assuming that you have a library card, and I feel pretty confident that you do). And to CPL, rename that page ASAP and add a list of all of the databases available in order to highlight your assets, not hide them!
