Order Retin A

[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab Order Retin A, on July 9, 2010.]

Time's non-pay paywall: Thanks to some collaborative online sleuthing — OK, basically just wandering around on a website and asking some simple questions — we found out that Time magazine is planning an online paywall. Reuters' Felix Salmon ran into the wall first a few weeks ago, but saw that it had disappeared by the next day. Then on Tuesday, the Lab's Josh Benton noticed it again, pointing out that this was an odd kind of paywall — one without any sort of way to pay online ("a paywall without a door, Buy Retin A without a prescription, " in his words).

All Things Digital's Peter Kafka got word the next day that the paywall is part of a company-wide strategy at Time Inc. to separate its print and iPad content from its online material. The Lab found out that Time does indeed have a plan to give that paywall a door and provide a way to purchase articles online, and The New York Times reported that this non-pay wall is part of a gradual effort to retrain readers to pay for content online and noted that not everything from the magazine is gone from the website, Order Retin A.

PaidContent's Staci Kramer called the move not a paywall, but "the magazine equivalent of a condom" — a way to separate online readers from its print content. She noted that the move limits non-print access to Time to a very select group of people — namely, iPad owners. Essentially, Retin A price, it's a hardware requirement to read Time magazine, something Publish2's Scott Karp asked whether we're going to start to seeing more of.

All Things Digital's Kafka wondered why Time wouldn't just offer its print articles for free if the magazine's print and online audiences were as separate as they're typically said to be. New York's Chris Rovsar posited that the new wall is about protecting its $4.99 iPad app: If all your print stuff is available through the iPad browser for free, why buy the app. DailyFinance media critic Jeff Bercovici made the same point Order Retin A, and argued that while Time may appear forward-thinking here, this move is really a regression. Generic Retin A, Newsweek's Mark Coatney, a former Time staffer, was ruthless in his assessment of the strategy, saying that it all comes back to value, and Time hasn't articulated why it's print content is worth paying for, but its online stuff isn't.

Pay vs, online buying Retin A. free in Britain: Time was far from the only paywall news this past week: Three relatively small Gannett papers put up a $9.95-a-month paywall last Thursday, and the most important new paywall may have been at The Times of London and The Sunday Times, two of Britain's oldest and most respected publications, which began charging for everything on their site last Friday. That development is particularly important because it's the first move in the paid-content crusade that Rupert Murdoch has been gearing up for since last summer.

Steve Outing and Poynter's Bill Mitchell noted that the Times' paywall is among the most impenetrable we've seen yet in newspapers: All non-subscribers can see is the homepage, and even the headlines are blocked from online news aggregators, Order Retin A. Order Retin A online overnight delivery no prescription, New York's Chris Rovsar took stock of what The New York Times (planning its own paid-content system next year) could learn from how the Times rolled out its paywall, and basically, it boils down to, "Whatever they did, just don't do it." He and the Press Gazette's Dominic Ponsford ripped the Times' paid-content strategy, criticizing it for not being RSS-compatible, not linking, where can i buy cheapest Retin A online, and giving away desperate-looking freebies. (Rovsar and Ponsford do acknowledge that the site is cheap and pretty, respectively.) British journalist Kevin Anderson used the Times' paywall as an opportunity to light into the thinking that leads newspapers to charge for content online in the first place.

Meanwhile, the Guardian, Retin A coupon, another prominent British paper which is staunchly in favor of free online contentreleased a Wordpress plugin that allows blogs and websites to embed the full text of Guardian stories for free. (Steve Outing demonstrated with a post on the iPad.) It's an unprecedented move, and one that made for a pretty easy contrast with the Times' protectionist strategy online. Outing did it most explicitly in two posts Order Retin A, , arguing that the Guardian's strategy taps into a worldwide revenue potential, while the Times relies on its brand-loyal British readers. Murdoch "apparently still doesn’t understand that this whole pay-for-news-online thing is not about the needs of publishers like him. It’s about what the audience for news is willing to do and willing to pay for," he wrote.

Learning from (and fighting with) content farms: Since acquiring the online content provider Associated Content in May, Retin A picturesYahoo has become the latest online media company to begin producing articles based on a calculation of search terms, including for its new news blog, The Upshot. The Wrap's Dylan Stableford took a look at these "content farms," focusing on why journalists hate them and what news organizations might be able to learn from them. Buy no prescription Retin A online, (On the latter point, Stableford's sources said content farms' acute attentiveness to what people are interested in reading could be particularly instructive.)

One of the people Stableford quotes, NYU professor Jay Rosen, gets some extended time on the subject, and another, Jason Fry, posted some additional thoughts, Retin A without a prescription, too. Fry, who is quoted in the article as saying, "If you want to know how our profession ends, look at Demand Media," clarified his stance a bit, saying that what bugs him is not the low pay, but the lack of quality, Order Retin A. Still, he acknowledged that because of cost-cutting, many small- and medium-sized newspapers' content is just as mediocre. Peter Berger, Japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal, a CEO of Suite101.com, one of those content generators, said the concern from news organizations is a red herring, and his industry really presents the biggest threat to non-fiction books.

Canadian writer Liz Metcalfe voiced some similar thoughts, arguing that the problem with the "demand content" model isn't the model itself, but the poor quality of what gets produced. Newspapers should find a way to incorporate the model while producing high-quality material, Retin A duration, and beat the content farms at their own game, she said. On the other hand, Harvard prof Ethan Zuckerman said dictating content based on search would be a bad way to run a newspaper: "You’d give up the critical ability to push topics and parts of the world that readers might not be interested in, but need to know about to be an engaged, Retin A canada, mexico, india, informed citizen."

A private group called the Internet Content Syndication Council wants to do something about these dastardly villains, and they're exploring a few options, including drafting a set of content-quality guidelines, licensing content syndicators and asking Google to tweak its search formula. CNET's Caroline McCarthy wondered Order Retin A, what a guideline or licensing system would do with bloggers.

Chronicling a growing shift to mobile: The Pew Internet & American Life Project released a couple of fascinating studies in the past week, the first on the future of social relations online and the second a survey of Americans' mobile use. The latter study in particular turned up a raft of interesting statistics, Retin A results, led by the finding that 59 percent of adults go online wirelessly, including 47 percent of Americans with their laptops and 40 percent with their cell phones.

Poynter's Mobile Media focused on the rise in "non-voice" uses for cell phones over the past year (Silicon Alley Insider has it in graphical form). The New York Times and Washington Post centered on the survey's finding that African-Americans, Hispanics, young people and poorer Americans are among the heaviest mobile media users, Where can i cheapest Retin A online, with the Times stating that "the image of the affluent and white cellphone owner as the prototypical mobile Web user seems to be a mistaken one."

Here at the Lab, Laura McGann seized on another tidbit from the study indicating that about a fifth of young adults have made a donation via their cell phone. She tied that finding to the public radio station WBUR's attempt to find a way to allow users to donate via an iPhone app, something Apple doesn't allow, asking how nonprofit news orgs might be able to find a way to tap into that willingness to give through their cell phones.

Reading roundup: Lots of really thoughtful stuff this week that's well worth your time (I assume it is, anyway — maybe your time's much more valuable than mine):

— The debate over objectivity and journalism raged on this week, fueled by the firing of CNN's Octavia Nasr over a remark she made on Twitter, Order Retin A. Many of the arguments circled around to the same ground we've covered with the Gen. McChrystal and Dave Weigel flare-ups, but I wanted to highlight three takes that stand out: Salon's Dan Gillmor on America's "technically good subservient press," Jay Rosen on "objectivity as a form of persuasion," and Mediaite's Philip Bump on a journalism of individuals.

— Many new media folks have been following the fate of the nonprofit Texas Tribune, and the Columbia Journalism Review has apretty definitive account of where they stand.

— ReadWriteWeb has a handy resource for zooming out and taking a look at the big picture — a summary of five key web trends so far at 2010's halfway point.

— Spot.Us' David Cohn takes a look at the short-lived journalism startup NewsTilt and comes away with some helpful lessons.

— Finally, Google researcher Paul Adams has a presentation on the problems with the way social media is designed that's been making its way around the web. It's a whopping 216 slides, but it's a simple yet insightful glance at what feels just a little bit wrong about our social interactions online and why.

Purchase Tramadol

[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab Purchase Tramadol, on July 2, 2010.]

Finding a place for a new breed of journalist: Laura touched on the resignation of Washington Post reporter Dave Weigel in last week's review, and several of the questions she raised were ones people have been batting around in the week since then. Here's what happened (and for those of you looking for a more narrative version, Jay Rosen has you covered via audio): Weigel, who writes a blog for the Post on the conservative movement, wrote a few emails on an off-the-record journalists' listserv called Journolist bashing a few members of that movement (most notably Matt Drudge and Ron Paul). Those emails were leaked, the conservative blogosphere went nuts, and Weigel apologized, then resigned from the Post the next day. Journolist founder Ezra Klein shut the listserv down, Tramadol blogs, and Weigel was apologetic in his own postmortem of the situation, attributing his comments to hubris toward conservatives designed to get other journalists to like him.

This was The Episode That Launched A Thousand Blog Posts, so I'll be sticking to the journalistic angles that came up, rather than the political ones. A lot of those issues seemed to come back to two posts by the Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg that included attacks on Weigel by anonymous Post staffers, the tone of which is best summed up by Goldberg's own words: "The sad truth is that the Washington Post, order Tramadol no prescription, in its general desperation for page views, now hires people who came up in journalism without much adult supervision, and without the proper amount of toilet-training." (Goldberg did quickly back down a bit.) Fellow Post blogger Greg Sargent defended Weigel (and Klein, a young Post blogger who's an outspoken liberal) by arguing that just because they express opinions doesn't make them any less of a reporter. New media guru Jeff Jarvis decried the "myth of the opinionless man" that Weigel was bound to, and Salon's Ned Resnikoff called for the end of neutral reporting, urging journalists to simply disclose their biases to the public instead, Purchase Tramadol.

Several other observers posited that many of the problems with this situation stemmed from a false dichotomy between "reporting" and "opinion." That compartmentalization was best expressed by Post ombudsman Andrew Alexander, Canada, mexico, india, who asked of the Post's bloggers, "Are they neutral reporters or ideologues?" (He proposed that the Post have one of each cover conservatives.) The Atlantic's Conor Friedersdorf said the Post is imposing binary categories on its reporters that don't fit real life, when the two in fact aren't mutually exclusive. Blogging historian and former Salon editor Scott Rosenberg made a similar point, suggesting Post "simply lets them be bloggers — writers with a point of view that emerges, post by post." The New Republic's Jonathan Chait pointed out that the Post has created a type of writer that it doesn't know what to do with, while Jim Henley offered a helpful definition of the "blog-reporter ethos" that those writers embody, order Tramadol online c.o.d.

Finally, a few other points well worth pondering: Nate Silver, whose opinionated political blog FiveThirtyEight just got picked up by The New York Times, marveled at how much more outrageous the response seemed to be than the comments themselves and wondered if even opinions expressed in private are now considered enough to disqualify a reporter. John McQuaid saw the episode as evidence that journalism traditionalists and the "view from nowhere" political press still rule in Washington, Buying Tramadol online over the counter, and the Columbia Journalism Review's Greg Marx saw in the conflict a backlash against a new generation of journalists who emphasize personal voice, as well as "an opportunity to establish a new set of journalistic values" — fair-mindedness and intellectual honesty backed by serious reporting, rather than a veneer of impartiality.

Google News gets a makeover: For the first time since it was launched in 2002, Google News got a significant redesign this week. Purchase Tramadol, Now, a little ways down from the top of the page is what Google called "the new heart of the homepage" — a personalized "News for you" section. That area can be adjusted to highlight or hide subjects, individual news topics, or certain news sources. The redesign is also emphasizing its Spotlight section of in-depth stories, as well as user-bookmarked stories. Search Engine Land has a nice visual overview of what's changed, Tramadol steet value.

The Lab's Megan Garber also has a helpful summary of the changes, noting that "the new site is trying to balance two major, and often conflicting, goals of news consumption: personalization and serendipity." All Things Digital's Peter Kafka wondered how many people are actually going to take the time to customize their page, under the idea that anybody news-savvy enough to do so is probably getting their news through a more comprehensive source like RSS or Twitter. Tramadol alternatives, Jay Rosen wanted to know what news sources people choose to see less of. Meanwhile, in an interview with MediaBistro, Google News lead engineer Krishna Bharat gave a good picture of where Google News has been and where it's heading, Purchase Tramadol.

A possible polling fraud revealed: For the past year and a half, the liberal political blog Daily Kos has been running a weekly poll, something that's reasonably significant because, well, it's a blog doing something that only traditional news organizations have historically done. This week, Tramadol from canada, Kos founder Markos Moulitsas Zuniga wrote that he will be suing Research 2000, the company that conducted the polls for the blog. The decision was based on a report done by three independent analysts that found some serious anomalies that seem to be indicators that polls might be fraudulent. Zuniga renounced his work based on Research 2000's polls and said, "I no longer have any confidence in any of it, Tramadol forum, and neither should anyone else."

The Washington Post's Greg Sargent detailed the planned suit, including a clear accusation from Kos' lawyer that the polls were fraudulent, not just sloppy: "They handed us fiction and told us it was fact. Purchase Tramadol, ... It's pretty damn clear that numbers were fabricated, and that the polling that we paid for was not performed." Research 2000 president Del Ali asserted the properness of his polls, and his lawyer called the fraud allegation "absurd" and threatened to countersue. Polling expert Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight, who began his blog as a Kos commenter, kjøpe Tramadol på nett, köpa Tramadol onlineechoed the study's concerns, then was hit with a cease-and-desist letter from Research 2000's attorney. Meanwhile, Yahoo's John Cook laid out Research 2000's troubled financial history.

This may seem like just a messy he-said, Taking Tramadol, she-said lawsuit involving two individual organizations, but as Sargent and The New York Times pointed out, Research 2000's work is cited by a number of mainstream news organizations (including the Post), and this could cause people to begin asking serious questions about the reliability of polling data. As trust in journalistic institutions wanes, the para-journalistic institution of polling may be about to take a big credibility hit here, too, Tramadol mg.

How much do reporters need to disclose?: Conversation about last week's Rolling Stone story on Gen, Purchase Tramadol. Stanley McChrystal continued to trickle out, especially regarding that tricky relationship between journalists and their sources. CBS foreign correspondent Lara Logan stoked much of it when she criticized the article's author, Michael Hastings, for being dishonest about his intentions and violating an unspoken agreement not to report the informal banter of military officials. Tramadol description, Salon's Glenn Greenwald saw the argument as a perfect contrast between adversarial watchdog journalism and journalism built on access, and Rolling Stone's Matt Taibbi came out firing with a characteristically inspired rant against Logan's argument: "According to Logan, not only are reporters not supposed to disclose their agendas to sources at all times, but in the case of covering the military, one isn't even supposed to have an agenda that might upset the brass!"

The New Yorker's Amy Davidson backed Taibbi up, but DailyFinance's Jeff Bercovici rapped Taibbi's knuckles for his disregard for the facts. Military and media blogger Jamie McIntyre found a spot in between Logan and Taibbi in ruling on their claims point by point, buy Tramadol without a prescription. Politico takes a look at the entire discussion Purchase Tramadol, , paying special attention to how relationships work for other military reporters and what this flap might mean for them in the future. On another angle, the Lab's Jason Fry used the story to examine whether the fragmentation of content is going to end up killing some news brands.

Reading roundup: We've had a longer-than-usual review this week, so I'll fly through some things and get you on your way to the weekend. There's still some really fascinating stuff to get to, Tramadol treatment, though:

— A newly released Harvard study found that newspapers overwhelmingly referred to waterboarding as torture until the George W. Bush administration began defining it as something other than torture, at which point their description of it became much less harsh. (They still largely described it as torture when other countries were doing it, though.) The study prompted quite a bit of anger about the American media's "craven cowardice" and subservience to government, as well as its unwillingness to "express opinion" by calling a spade a spade, Purchase Tramadol. James Joyner noted that it's complicated and The New York Times said that calling it torture was taking sides, though the Washington Post's Greg Sargent said not calling it torture is taking a side, too.

— I was gone last week, so I didn't get a chance to highlight this thoughtful post by the Atlantic's Conor Friedersdorf on what it takes to replace the local beat reporter. As for the newspaper itself, the folks at Reason gave you a section-by-section guide to replacing your newspaper consumption habit.

— Finally, in the you-must-bookmark-this category: Former New York Times reporter Jennifer 8. Lee put together an indispensable glossary of tech terms for journalists. Whether you're working on the web or not, I'd advise reading it and digging deeper into any of the terms you still don't quite understand.

Tramadol Dosage

[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab Tramadol Dosage, on June 18, 2010.]

The FTC's last round of input: The U.S. Federal Trade Commission wrapped up its series of forums on journalism and public policy Tuesday, and this forum got quite a bit more attention than the others — partly because it's the last one, and partly because the FTC released its draft of possible policy proposals a few weeks ago, which gave people something concrete to pick apart.

Before the forum, Tramadol use, The New York Times' Jeremy Peters and TBD's Steve Buttry both gave good summaries of what various people are saying about the issue, and Save the News' Fiona Morgan gave a helpful, detailed description of what went on at the forum itself. As for the FTC's final report due out this fall, Poynter's Rick Edmonds and Bloomberg Businessweek's Olga Kharif both wrote that we're unlikely to see any proposals for significant government intervention in the news business. Edmonds offers a handful of reasons that the idea has fallen out of favor: Newspapers' financial fortunes have improved lately, we've seen an explosion of strongly backed digital journalism experiments, Tramadol wiki, the government might not be able to do it well, and news organizations themselves aren't sure what they want from Uncle Sam. Both Edmonds and Kharif also noted that Congress won't be willing to be seen as bailing out another for-profit industry.

A few more voices — media economics professor Robert Picard, TBD's Mandy Jenkins and conservative Denver Post columnist David Harsanyi — joined the anti-subsidy chorus this week, and the Times' Eric Pfanner provided some evidence to back them up, pointing out that countries with the largest direct subsidies for newspapers also have the lowest newspaper readership, Tramadol Dosage. (He also noted the U.S. media's extreme reliance on advertising compared with the rest of the world.)

Other folks offered a few ideas of what policy proposals they'd like to see the FTC endorse. Edmonds wants to see nonprofits allowed to accept advertising, Buy Tramadol from mexico, j-prof C.W. Anderson says public policy has a role in "fostering an entrepreneurial, innovative, reinvented journalistic sphere," Salon's Dan Gillmor stumps for open broadband subsidies, and Save the News' Josh Stearns lists five ideas he wants endorsed. Tramadol Dosage, The themes that run across several of those people's proposals are clear: Net neutrality, expanded broadband, open government data, and encouragement for innovation, rather than protection for traditional media businesses.

Google News goes human: One low-key but potentially significant development from late last week: As the Lab's Megan Garber reported, after Tramadol, Google News began an experiment called Editors' Picks, in which editors from partner news organizations like the BBC and the Washington Post curate lists of news articles to go along with Google's algorithm-run selections. Garber notes what a shift this is from Google's historical approach to news aggregation and ties it to the quest for serendipity: "This is one way of replicating the offline experience of serendipity-via-bundling within the sometimes scattered experience of online news consumption," she says.

GigaOM's Mathew Ingram saw in the project a similar sign of a shift toward human-powered news aggregation at Google, No prescription Tramadol online, though he noted that Google has tried numerous news-related experiments that never caught on. That's exactly what a Google spokesperson told paidContent's Staci Kramer, and both sites mentioned Google's ill-fated commenting experiment as an example.

Still, Mashable's Vadim Lavrusik loved this idea, making a case for the value of human editors in making sure that people are reading what they need to know online as well as what they want to know, Tramadol Dosage. In other Google News news, its creator, Krishna Bharat, gave a long interview in which he discussed its role in journalism and his idea of what the future of journalism might look like, buy Tramadol without prescription.

Murdoch picks up some paid-content pieces: Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. continued its long, steady march toward a paid-news future with a few small but potentially important moves this week: It bought the Skiff mobile software platform from the newspaper chain Hearst — not the Skiff e-reader itself, though it seems they're working on that — invested in Journalism Online, Steve Brill's news paid-content venture, and bid to take full control of British Sky Broadcasting, Europe's largest for-pay broadcaster.

Hollywood Reporter's Andrew Wallenstein called the first two moves huge news for the digital news business, arguing that Murdoch is setting the standard for the way everyone else does business online. "This is about laying the groundwork for the very process by which people pay for that news; namely, the device they consume it on and the virtual storefront that handles the payment, is Tramadol safe," he wrote. Tramadol Dosage, And with BSkyB's digital music and broadband services, it looks like Murdoch's hoping to add another major asset in his plans to find new ways to get people to pay for not only news, but digital entertainment media as well.

A theory of the political press defined: If you've been following NYU professor Jay Rosen on Twitter or reading his blog for any length of time, you've probably absorbed a general sense of his guiding philosophy about the American political press. But this week he posted the definitive explanation of that philosophy, which is most simply that political journalists' prevailing ideology is one of false equivalency between two sides of political extremists, Tramadol no prescription, while they (and their favorite politicians) stand at the sane, savvy, skeptical center. It's obviously just one critic's opinion, but it's a remarkably helpful frame to help interpret what the Washington press corps values and why it does what it does.

There's some fascinating discussion about Rosen's ideas in the lengthy comments of his post, and he got a few thoughtful responses elsewhere, as well, Tramadol no rx. The Atlantic's Conor Friedersdorf agreed with the main thrust of Rosen's argument, though he challenged the assertion that political journalists are "big believers in the law of unintended consequences" who don't pay much attention to the direct consequences of public policy. The Economist likewise endorses the post but counters that Rosen's concepts of "he said, she said journalism" and "the sphere of deviance" are at odds, Tramadol Dosage. Over at Slate, Tom Scocca affirms a point of Rosen's about journalists' disregard for street protests, and Australian journalist Jonathan Holmes adapted the concept to the Australian media. Doses Tramadol work, Also, the Atlantic's Marc Ambinder — as a political editor, part of the tribe Rosen was dissecting — asked the professor what he would have the political press think instead. Rosen has promised an answer.

Future-of-news thoughts and innovation: Before we get to the reading roundup, a note on a couple of interesting items that the Lab has been highlighting this week. Tramadol Dosage, First, our sister publication, Nieman Reports, has published its quarterly issue, which is always chock-full of thought-provoking essays on journalism in transition. This summer's issue is titled "What's Next for News?" so it's right along the lines of the stuff we write about here at the Lab, where can i order Tramadol without prescription. The Lab has been pointing out several of the issue's 36 pieces — including thoughts on the Internet's effects on our thinking, the editor-as-gatekeeper role, and the semantic web — but there's plenty more out there, so go look around.

Second, Buy cheap Tramadol no rx, the Knight News Challenge announced the 12 winners of its $2.74 million worth of grants for innovative journalism projects. The Lab's Josh Benton has a rundown of the winners and a few observations about the crop as a whole, and we've got profiles of a few of the initiatives, too. There's Stroome, the wiki-style collaborative video-editing site; Public Radio Exchange, a crowdfunding project for public radio journalism; and Order in the Court 2.0, an effort to open up courtrooms through new media, Tramadol Dosage. They should have several more profiles up over the next few days (probably even before this post is published) if you're in the mood to be encouraged by innovation in news.

Reading roundup: Two ongoing discussions, one news economics development, Tramadol gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, and one thoughtful piece on context:

— Two news economics experts, Alan Mutter and Frederic Filloux, weighed in this week with their assessments of iPad news apps so far. Mutter looks at the winners and losers, and Filloux talks about what makes iPad news apps work. Online buying Tramadol, — We've been hearing for a couple of weeks about what the Internet is (or isn't) doing to our brains, and that conversation continued with a defense of the web by The New York Times' Nick Bilton a caution to doomsayers by psychology professor Steven Pinker.

— Consulting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers estimated this week that Internet ad revenue will surpass newspaper ad revenue by 2014. Both will still remain behind TV ad revenue, they said.)

— Finally, former journalist John Zhu wrote a wonderful explanation of the state of, well, explanation in the news. (Complete with helpful visual aids!) If you're interested at all in how journalists can make complex stories more understandable to people, this is the perfect place to start putting together where we've been and where we could be going.

Synthroid Price

[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab Synthroid Price, on June 11, 2010.]

The Times has the Pulse (briefly) pulled: Last week, I noted one of the more interesting iPad news apps: The Pulse Reader, designed by two Stanford grad students, is a stylish news aggregator. But on Monday, the app was pulled from the iTunes store based on a claim that it infringes on The New York Times' copyright after some Times folks saw the paper's own blog post about the reader. The app was reinstated the next day, but the debate over copyright, aggregation and mobile apps had already taken off.

The central point of the Times' argument was that the $3.99 app was an illegal attempt to make money off of the Times' (and the Boston Globe's) free, publicly available RSS feeds, rx free Synthroid. (The paper also objected to app's placement of the Times' content within a frame on the iPad.) The Citizen Media Law Project's Kimberley Isbell helpfully broke down the Times' claims and the Pulse Reader's possible fair-use defenses, noting the Times articles' free accessibility and the relatively small article portions displayed on the reader.

Reaction on the web weighed overwhelmingly against the Times: Wired contended that every piece of paid software used to access the Times' site would be outlawed by the paper's logic, while Techdirt's Mike Masnick argued that Pulse was selling its software, not the Times' feeds, Synthroid Price. GigaOm's Mathew Ingram wondered whether the Times was declaring war on news aggregators, and the Sydney Morning Herald reasoned that if the Times is offering its RSS for free, it can't complain when someone designs a reader to view it. Blogging and RSS vet Dave Winer had the harshest response in a post arguing that the Times is in the business of news production, Fast shipping Synthroid, not distribution: "Look, if the Times is depending on stopping those two kids for its future, then the Times has no future."

The reader's creators were just as baffled as anybody about why the app was reinstated, a Times' spokesman apparently tried to pass off the complaint as a mistake, though that response doesn't exactly square with the Times' Martin Nisenholtz's reiteration of the paper's case to paidContent's Staci Kramer. As for whether this claim would apply beyond the Pulse Reader, Nisenholtz said it would be handled "on a case by case basis."

We had plenty of other iPad news this week, too — Jobs made a number of mostly iPhone-related announcements at a conference on Monday, Synthroid recreational, and the Lab's Josh Benton explained what they mean for mobile news. A few highlights: Apple's not too concerned about app-banning controversies, but it is moving decisively on ebooks and its iAd mobile advertising platform. The AP reported that publishers are seeing encouraging early signs Synthroid Price, about wringing advertising dollars out of the iPad, but Ken Doctor went on a wonderful little rant against publishers that are slow to take advantage of the iPad's capabilities. Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal's Robert Thomson slammed news orgs' repurposed "crapps" and talked, with the Journal's Les Hinton, Buy cheap Synthroid, about his paper's own iPad strategy. And the iPad faced its first major security issue, as the email addresses of its 114,000 owners were exposed by hackers.

The purpose of the link: A Nicholas Carr post last week ignited a spirited discussion about the relative values of the link, and that conversation continued this week with twin Wall Street Journal columns by Carr and web scholar Clay Shirky debating whether the Internet makes us smarter. Carr said no, using a similar argument to the one he laid out in his earlier post (it's also the central point of his new book): The Internet encourages multitasking and bite-size information, making us all "scattered and superficial thinkers."Shirky said yes, Synthroid without prescription, arguing that the Internet enables never-before-experienced publishing and connective capabilities that allow us to put our cognitive surplus to work for a better society. (That's also the central point of his new book.) Quitefew people, led by GigaOm's Mathew Ingram, posited that both writers were right - Carr in the short term, Shirky in the long term.

Here at the Lab, Jason Fry weighed in on the delinkification debate, giving a useful classification of the link's primary purposes — credibility, readability and connectivity, Synthroid Price. Credibility has become a vital function in today's web, Synthroid for sale, Fry said, though he conceded Carr's point that the link adds to the cognitive load when it comes to readability. Based on Carr's original post, the web design firm Arc90 added an option to its browser extension to convert hyperlinks to footnotes.

The Lab also ran a fantastic three-part series on links by Jonathan Stray exploring four journalistic purposes of the hyperlink (it's essential, he says), examining the way news organizations talk about links (they're a bit muddled) and studying how much those news organizations actually link (not a whole lot, especially the wire services), Synthroid trusted pharmacy reviews. It's a tremendously helpful resource for anyone interested in looking at how linking and journalism intersect.

Debate over Newsweek's bidders: We found out about three bidders for Newsweek Synthroid Price, last Thursday, so last Friday was the time for profiles and commentary, much of it centered on the conservative news site and magazine Newsmax. Newsmax's CEO, Christopher Ruddy, told the Washington Post that it has a number of non-conservative media projects, so Newsweek wouldn't have to adopt a conservative viewpoint to be part of Newsmax's plans. "Newsmax's success is in its business model, Synthroid dose, not just its editorial approach," Ruddy said. Newsweek employees were worried about the prospect of a Newsmax-owned Newsweek, but the New York Times' Ross Douthat, himself a conservative, said Newsmax's influence could be just the nudge Newsweek needs to hit its sweet spot in America's heartland. Chicago magazine profiled another bidder, venture capitalist Thane Ritchie, Synthroid pics, while the Washington Post reported that audio equipment exec Sidney Harman is considering a bid, too.

Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz devoted a column to the publicly acknowledged bidders, exploring the question of why no major players have emerged as bidders and concluding that the lack of interest "amounts to a no-confidence vote not just on the category of newsweeklies, which have long been squeezed between daily papers and in-depth monthlies, but on print journalism itself." Newsweek, via its Tumblr, ripped apart the work of its Washington Post Co, Synthroid Price. colleague, taking to task for a lack of evidence and disputing his claim that the re-envisioned Newsweek is a flop. (That Tumblr is written by Newsweek social-media guru David Coatney, who got a New York Daily Intel Q&A a couple of days later.) Meanwhile, Synthroid natural, New York Times columnist David Carr proposed eight ways to revive Newsweek.

A sports blog network goes local: ESPN has been making a well-documented and initially successful local sports media play over the past year, but this week, a very different sports media company is making a push into what used to be local newspapers' territory. SB Nation, a network of more than 250 fan-run sports blogs founded in 2003 by Tyler Bleszinski and Daily Kos' Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, began rolling out 20 city-specific sports media hubs. Synthroid Price, Until now, the company has focused on team-specific (or sport-specific, in the case of some less prominent sports) blogs, but the new sites will aggregate real-time sports news mixed with fan-generated conversation and commentary.

In a New York Times feature, generic Synthroid, SB Nation's Jim Bankoff said that while his company is trying to provide a ground-up alternative to traditional sports coverage, he'd be happy to collaborate with local newspapers. Former ESPN.com columnist Dan Shanoff echoed that perspective, saying that SB Nation's brand of sharp fan analysis is ripe for media partnerships because "it is something that local newspapers and local cable-sports networks can't or won't do well." Shanoff proposed that SB Nation become a piece of a larger media company's local media strategy, suggesting Comcast as an ideal fit.

Here at the Lab, Is Synthroid addictive, Bankoff gave Laura McGann a handful of lessons media organizations could learn from the SB Nation model, including tightly focused subject matter and maximizing repeat visitors. SB Nation's team-specific focus seems to be a major component in its success, and could have some ready implications for news organizations, as Bankoff noted: “We’re not fans of sports — we’re fans of teams. We’re not fans of television, Synthroid Price. We’re fans of shows.”

Reading roundup: This week, I've got two news items, a few interesting pieces of commentary and one set of tips, purchase Synthroid online no prescription.

— Advertising Age reported that AOL is planning to hire hundreds of journalists for a major expansion into news production. At the local media blog Lost Remote, Cory Bergman, who owns a local news network himself, noted that AOL's hyperlocal outfit Patch is making 300 of those hires and wondered what it will mean for local news.

— Los Angeles Times media writer James Rainey wrote a piece on the Las Vegas Review-Journal, a newspaper that has poured legal resources into stopping people who use its content without permission. The Times' Mark Milian also provided a quick guide Synthroid Price, to what's OK and what's not when reposting.

— Publish2's Scott Karp wrote an intriguing essay on the concept of a Content Graph, in which media organizations collaborate through distribution to enhance their brand's value.

— News business guru Alan Mutter sensed a theme among news startups — too much focus on news, not enough on business — and wrote a stiff wakeup call.

— Two journalism/tech folks, japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypalJeff Sonderman and Michelle Minkoff, wrote a bit about what journalism school is — and isn't — good for. Both are worthwhile reads.

— Finally, British journalism David Higgerson has 10 ideas for building good hyperlocal websites. Most of his (very practical) ideas are useful not just for hyperlocal journalism, but for online news in general.

Tramadol No Rx

[This review was originally posted at the Nieman Journalism Lab Tramadol No Rx, on June 4, 2010.]

The FTC's ideas for journalism: The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has spent much of the last year listening to suggestions about how they might change antitrust, copyright and tax laws in order to create the best possible climate for good journalism, and this weekend it posted its "discussion draft" of policy proposals to "support the reinvention of journalism." It's a 47-page document, so here's a quick summary of their ideas:

— Expand copyright law to protect news content against online aggregators, including "hot news" legislation, further limits to fair use and mandatory content licenses. Tramadol street price, — Allow antitrust exemptions for news organizations to put up paywalls together and develop a unified system to limit online aggregators.

— Enact direct or indirect government subsidies through a variety of possible means, including a journalism AmeriCorps, more CPB funding, a national local news fund, tax credits to news orgs for employing journalists, university investigative journalism grants, and newspaper and magazine postal subsidies, Tramadol interactions. These subsidies could be paid for through taxes on broadcast spectrum, consumer electronics, advertising, or ISP-cell phone bills.

— Tax code changes to make it easier for news organizations to gain tax-exempt status, Tramadol No Rx.

— Pass various FOIA-related laws to make government data easier to access and search.

It's worth noting that the FTC isn't explicitly endorsing these proposals; the draft reads more as a list of possible proposals that might be worth exploring further. Purchase Tramadol online, Still, j-prof and new media pundit Jeff Jarvis saw a perspective of old-media protectionism running through the draft, as he tore it apart point by point. The FTC is defining journalism through established news organizations and looking to prop them up instead of supporting visionary startups, he wrote. "If the FTC truly wanted to reinvent journalism, the agency would instead align itself with journalism’s disruptors. But there's none of that here." Tramadol No Rx, Jarvis' charges were seconded by two newspapermen, the Washington Examiner's Mark Tapscott and the Los Angeles Times' Andrew Malcolm, who likened the proposals to the government trying to save the auto industry by reviving the gas guzzlers of the 1960s. Steve Buttry of the new Washington news site TBD chimed in, too, online buying Tramadol hcl, homing in on the assertion that newspapers provide the overwhelming majority of our original news.

Free Press' Josh Stearns responded by cautioning against "throwing the baby out with the bath water," noting a few of things that he liked about the FTC's proposals. And at the Huffington Post, Alex Howard praised the FTC's open-government proposals. NYU j-prof Jay Rosen chipped in his own tweet-length proposal for the FTC: "Subsidize universal broadband; fight for sensible net neutrality."

Steve Jobs' pitch for paid news: The folks from the Wall Street Journal's All Things Digital interviewed Apple chief Steve Jobs on stage this week as part of their D8 conference, Tramadol overnight, and Jobs had a few words for the news industry: Yes, he wants to help save journalism, because, as he put it, "“I don’t want to see us descend into a nation of bloggers myself." But if they're going to survive, news organizations should be more aggressive about getting people to pay for content, Jobs said, like Apple did in helping raise e-book prices earlier this year, Tramadol long term.

As it turned out, there was something for everybody to pick apart in that exchange: Ex-Saloner and blogging historian Scott Rosenberg took issue with Jobs' "nation of bloggers" jab, and Steve Safran of the local-news blog Lost Remote said that what Jobs really wants to save is paid, professional journalism, Tramadol No Rx. GigaOm's Mathew Ingram argued that an "iTunes for news" model that Jobs proposed might benefit Jobs, but probably won't work for news outlets. And here at the Lab, Laura McGann pointed out a statement Jobs made elsewhere in the interview that rejected Apple app applicants (sorry, couldn't resist) should simply resubmit their apps, unchanged. Get Tramadol, Meanwhile, we got another diatribe about Apple's app censorship from Advertising Age's Simon Dumenco, and a few other interesting pieces of app news: Statistics showing just how big game apps are on the iPhone and iPad (though content apps aren't doing bad on the iPad), lessons for iPad news apps from Hacks/Hackers' recent app-creating binge, and a cool iPad news reader designed by Stanford students.

To link or not to link?: Author Nicholas Carr, who's about to release a book about how the Internet is hurting our ability to think, highlighting one of the points from that book in a blog post this weekend: The link, where can i cheapest Tramadol online, Carr argues, hurts our ability to concentrate and follow an argument, and in some cases we may be better off without them. Tramadol No Rx, He calls links a high-tech version of the footnote, like little distracting textual gnats buzzing around our heads. "Even if you don't click on a link, your eyes notice it, and your frontal cortex has to fire up a bunch of neurons to decide whether to click or not. You may not notice the little extra cognitive load placed on your brain, but it's there and it matters." Carr approvingly noted a couple of experiments in leaving links to the bottom of articles.

ReadWriteWeb's Marshall Kirkpatrick responded with a thoughtful look at the purpose of links, Order Tramadol from mexican pharmacy, wondering if they really might be better off at the end of articles, and the Columbia Journalism Review's Ryan Chittum was sympathetic to Carr's point as well: "It’s not a trivial question to ask what the Internet is doing to our attention spans," he wrote. "I know mine, for one, is shot to hell."

Carr, who's had his runins with the Internet cognoscenti in the past, predictably caught some flak for his post too, Tramadol without a prescription, including from Mathew Ingram, who argued that links are at least as much an intellectual discipline for the writer as the reader. The Scholarly Kitchen's Kent Anderson noted that links are part of a long academic tradition that includes footnotes and inline citations: "Do they distract. Of course they do, Tramadol No Rx. ... But it’s distraction through addition, if done well." And author Scott Berkun brings up a few variables that others missed, Herbal Tramadol, including the skill of the author, web design, and the "open in new tab" function.

'The Twitter of news': The link-sharing site Digg gave a preview of its new version, which will implement some Twitter-like features and emphasize the news links that the people you follow have shared, rather than just the top overall links. The net effect is an attempt to become, as GigaOm's Liz Gannes put it, buy Tramadol from canada, "the Twitter of news." That, of course, raises the question, "Isn't Twitter already the Twitter of news?" But Digg's advantage, founder Kevin Rose says, is that it does away with the status updates and Justin Bieber memes and gives you purely socially powered links and news.

Tech pioneer Dave Winer was intrigued by the concept, Tramadol maximum dosage, and The Next Web's Zee Kane lauded Digg for integrating more deeply with Twitter. Tramadol No Rx, Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit, a competitor of Digg's, bashed Rose for "just re-implementing features from other websites," and TechCrunch's Michael Arrington knocked both Rose and Ohanian down a peg in response.

Bidders for Newsweek: Wednesday was The Washington Post Co.'s deadline for formal expressions of interest in buying Newsweek, and it received three offers: OpenGate Capital, a private equity firm that bought TV Guide for $1 in 2008; hedge fund manager and failed Chicago Sun-Times bidder Thane Ritchie; and conservative magazine and website Newsmax. On Twitter, Jeff Jarvis called the bidders "tacky" and wondered whether Newsweek would be better off dead.

Earlier in the week, The New York Times' David Carr offered an explanation for why Newsweek and other magazines seem to be worth so little to potential buyers: "In the current digital news ecosystem, where can i buy cheapest Tramadol online, having 'week' in your title is anachronistic in the extreme, what an investor would call negative equity." At its Tumblr blog, Newsweek responded by arguing that while everyone seems to have the perfect idea of what Newsweek should have done, no one can change the simple business reality that Newsweek is no longer alone in its niche for readers and advertisers.

Reading roundup: A couple of updates on stories from last week, plus a bunch of interesting articles and resources.

— There wasn't much new said in the continuing argument over Facebook and privacy, but Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg gave a couple more interviews defending its privacy policy and last week's changes to NPRAll Things Digital and Wired, the latter of which included the revelation that Zuckerberg donated to Diaspora, Facebook's open-source startup competitor, Tramadol No Rx. Tramadol photos, Wired's Fred Vogelstein also defended Facebook's privacy stance, and Jay Rosen took him to task for it.

— An addendum to last week's Publish2 News Exchange launch: Publish2's Ryan Sholin told the Lab's Megan Garber that it only intends to disrupt the AP, not kill it. The exchange is aimed at the content distribution side of the AP, not the production end, he said. Poynter's Rick Edmonds gave some more explanation of Publish2's plans.

— The New York Times announced it will host Nate Silver's political polling blog FiveThirtyEight, one of the web's top operations at the intersection of data and journalism. Yahoo News' Michael Calderone examined the fact that Silver's been open about his liberal political views and asks how that will work out at the Times.

— Several smart, thought-provoking analyses here: journalism researcher Michele McLellan surveyed online local news publishers, news business expert Alan Mutter looked at Yahoo's hints at a challenge to local newspapers, search guru Danny Sullivan examined a case of traditional media stealing his blog's story; and media analyst Frederic Filloux explained why online advertising is so lousy.

— Finally, a 'why' and a 'how' for a couple of aspects of digital journalism: MediaShift's Roland LeGrand gives journalists the reasons they should learn computer programming, and Poynter's Jeremy Caplan has a great list of tips for crowdsourcing in journalism.
