An Open Letter From Internet Engineers to the U.S.... →
We, the undersigned, have played various parts in building a network called the Internet. We wrote and debugged the software; we defined the standards and protocols that talk over that network. Many of us invented parts of it. We’re just a little proud of the social and economic benefits that our project, the Internet, has brought with it.
Last year, many of us wrote to you and your colleagues...

Jim Carrey's self-recorded videos
lostateminor:
I have several man crushes on a variety of actors. At my ultimate dinner party, I would invite Chevy Chase, Leslie Nielsen, Andy Samberg, Will Arnett, Dan Clark and Jim Carrey. We would go to Sizzlers and it would be deece.
Ever since seeing Ace Venture 15 years ago, I have had a soft spot for Jim Carrey. That’s why I think this website of his, which features a load of...

Netflix Is Not Facing The Innovator's Dilemma →
A service like Netflix faces a fundamental chicken-and-egg problem. You can’t get an established base of users unless you have a fairly complete library—users aren’t going to be very interested in a service that only has half the movies they want to watch. But if you don’t have a large user base, you don’t have much leverage against major content providers, who are going to hold back their best...

ahknight:
Netflix jacked their rates for Instant Watch + DVD delivery and gave a lame-ass excuse for it. It was calculated to be lame, however, because if they used the real reason for it prices might go even higher.

shaneguiter:
“In the next 10 to 20 years, almost all video will become click-and-watch Internet video and consumers will interact with it on a wider range of devices and it will able be on demand,” he predicted. “You will not tune into a certain channel this is broadcasting — and that is the radical change. It will be an on-demand world.”

techspotlight:
UltraViolet is the most important media service you’ve probably never heard of – a grand plan for Hollywood to get everything right that the music business has got wrong. All the major studios are members of the DECE consortium behind UV, apart from Disney (You can probably guess why). Cable companies and telcos are already members, including BT and BSkyB. TV manufacturers will...

rafimama:
IntoNow’s fingerprinting technology knows not only what consumers are watching, but also if they’re watching it live or delayed on a DVR or some other kind of recording device, key information for advertisers. It will even work on the YouTube clip of the ad (so go ahead and give it a whirl).

The Struggle to Spread the Minority Report... →
techspotlight:
In the 2002 film Minority Report, Tom Cruise’s cop of the future made use of a mind-blowing computer interface—a holographic wall of images and data floating before him, which Cruise manipulated by donning special gloves and making sweeping gestures to call up, move, zoom, combine, and discard far more information than fits on any PC screen, far more quickly. Few moviegoers...
Why you won’t care that the Net isn’t neutral →
It’s very simple. Once we have lost Net neutrality and the access providers are given a free hand to charge Internet companies for delivering their bits faster and more reliably than their competitors’ bits, we will experience this simply as how the Internet works, not as an artificial constraint put in to benefit the access providers.
With so little competition, the access providers will...
