Interesting stuff I saw online, Apr. 27 to May. 16
Here’s some of the stuff I thought was interesting while stomping through the Internet from Apr. 27 through May. 16:
- Random House shuts down Kindle text-to-speech for their titles – Awesome. Another industry tries to bully its way though changing technology rather than adapt.
- IOC: All Your Blog Are Belong to Us – Implications for news organizations that recruit local athletes to blog for them while at the Olympic Games? "The Sports Journalists' Association is reporting that the International Olympic Committee has issued guidelines for athlete bloggers at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Games."
- Taking Online Discussions Back From the Bullies – Andrew Alexander, WaPo: "I believe that online, The Post should tolerate precisely the kind of moronic, anonymous, unsubstantiated and often venomous comments accompanying the Kellermann story. It's the essence of free speech."
- Blogger Wins $225,000 Settlement Over Public Records Delay – Citizen Media Law Project: "Sharkansky's story is a great example of how bloggers can contribute to the public dialogue. Sharkansky saw a hole in news coverage of an important event and took it upon himself to fill it."
- Dying is No Reason to Give Up Online Social Life | Firstcoastnews.com | Strange – "In today's world of always-connected social media, there's no reason to stop interacting online simply because you're dead."
