The Legality Of Amazon's Search The Book
Feature

The Legality Of Amazon's Search The Book
Feature 11/11/2003 10:32 AM
Who better to discuss the legality of Amazon's new full text search feature, than a copyright lawyer who is also an author? Over at News.com, Doug Isenberg points out that if you happen to do a search on the system of "fair use" and "internet", you'll actually get the passage from his book describing how one of the determinants of whether or not something is fair use is how it impacts the sales of the book. So, while he's was a bit surprised, as an author, to find out his entire book was online via Amazon, it's probably perfectly legal. In fact, he says that the publishers probably do have the right to make that call (no matter what the Authors Guild says), though he admits that almost no one probably thought about this potential use of their work when they signed their publishing deal.

Google and Search Inside the Book

Google and Search Inside the Book 10/30/2003 10:22 AM
You probably know by now that Amazon has released the first of its A9 search offerings: Search Inside the Book. (If you don't, basically when you search on Amazon it searches the full text of thousands of books, and points you not only to the book, but to scanned copies of all the pages that match your search.) So what should Google do? This is a perfect time to cut a deal with Amazon: Amazon lets them index the text of all these books, and in return, Google sends tons of customers to Amazon's door. Putting the books in the search results wouldn't be any different than the search results already provided by Amazon, so there wouldn't be any copyright or lost-sales problems. Despite the amazingness of the Web, there's still some stuff you can find only in books. Google wouldn't be living up to their mission (to organize all the world's information) if they passed up this amazing opportunity....

Feature in search of a DLA

Feature in search of a DLA 08/02/2004 04:24 AM

Oh yes did I forget to mention that OpenEvents needs to happen? - soon!

I'm so tired of these single feature supposed products - without social networks, personal publishing - just sitting there, all by themselves. Do they think that by including RSS - they're hip and tuned in?

I wonder?

Without friends - this product is absurd.

Anyway - here's Roland's post that I found out about this lovely feature - I mean product.

Now if only this would work seamlessly with iCal it would be even better.

From RSSCalendar .com - Product Overview:

QUOTE

RSSCalendar is an exciting new way for individuals and organizations to share their calendars with family, friends, and colleagues - utilizing the latest in "Really Simple Syndication" (RSS) technology, including RSS channel creation and aggregation. Not only is RSSCalendar easy to use but it is also easy to administer, and setup is a snap.

UNQUOTE

Roland's right though - it certainly needs to support iCal and it certainly is simple.

New Feature: Adding Metadata to Search Results

Ok.  Here's a cool (well I think its cool at least -- let me know if its useless) new thing.  What I've done is added metadata to search results so you can look at a search result and see visually whether that post has:

• Multiple Links
• Any images
• Any mailto links

Why?  What Was I Thinking?

We all surf the net a lot and while we might not be able to remember an exact posting, we tend to be able to remember some of its characteristics -- WHEN they deviate from the norm AND if they're visual in nature.  When I think about cool cell phones for example, I'd naturally think of Russell.  But Russell has written so much on cell phones that if the search result can tell me "Has 5 pictures" then I can get a rough feel if this might be the posting.  Similarly if I'm looking for a post where I remember that it had a mailto link then I can now tell from the search results.  Now both mailtos and pictures are still somewhat uncommon in blog posts so I start the count on those from 1 (i.e. I'll display their count if there is at least 1).  But we assume that blog posts have at least 1 url always so I only show urls when there are more than 1 (which might not be the right thresh hold / is 5 better).

Sound silly?  Here are some examples:

• 1st query result has 2 links
• 1st query result has 32 links and 3 mailtos

Should It Stay or Should It Go Now?

Let me know if this is worthwhile or simply featuritis and should be eliminated (and yes that means that The Clash is playing now on my iPod).
