The Absurdity of the Google Sandbox


The Absurdity of the Google Sandbox 02/05/2005 09:42 PM
"... is that our new site is a Google News source and is a provider of editorial reviews on Froogle. That means at least two human editors (and I know the product manager at Google) specifically thought our site was good enough to be included in the top 4,500 news sources, and a handful of maybe 10 editorial review providers in our category on Froogle."

Contests Abound


Contests Abound 01/22/2004 02:29 AM

Participatory creativity is hot, hot. The Lollapoola Mash-Up Contest. Our Own GET CREATIVE! Moving Images Contest (winners to be announced next month). MoveOn.org's Bush in 30 Seconds advertisement contest. And now even the New Yorker has anno unced the winner of its own analog-version of an open-source creativity contest, which was more interactive than contests past. (Devoted New Yorker fans will want to watch the great slide show explaining the judging process.)

I don't remember the New Yorker's ever explaining the copyright policy for this. Who gets to keep the rights to the final cartoon? Can we re-use those little screwdriver or dog cut-outs for other purposes? And given that it's cut-outs we're talking about, how does first sale doctrine tie in to all this?

Clearly the average New Yorker reader -- or editor -- isn't as persnickety about their IP as some of us. Maybe next year they'll go CC.

"We've been available through AIM for 2.5 months now. I've handed out cards to YAs (and a few adults) and have them around the library for people to take. I had the chance to speak to 75 freshman and gave told them about it. (They were pretty amazed). Anywho, this has resulted in over 50 questions from about 35 patrons. (And no, I'm not counting the questions asking if I was a robot or a person). Not a bad ROI." [walking paper]
