We're Not Who You Think We Are

The Daily Loper – November 14, 2006

November 14, 2006 by Lopy

Darlings of Talk Radio Edition

Today’s links of interest:

  • The rise and fall of the "bus plunge" story
    Yet another victim of the digitialization of media.
  • Coming Soon via Your TiVo: Internet Video on Television
    Yup. Like the XBox, this is already hooked up to your TV. By this time next year, you really won’t have any excuse for missing anything.
  • Installing the Zune… sucked – Engadget
    A first look at Zune’s software and it’s not good. The usual Microsoft nightmare installation, but with nice photography.
  • RIAA: we love fair use. No, really!
    There’s a catch, of course. The RIAA has a radically different notion about what constitute fair use. They still don’t believe in consumer rights.
  • Justin Long says he’s still the Mac guy
    So how exactly did those rumors get started? I suspect John Hodgman may know more than he’s letting on – which, when you think about it is really not Hodgman’s style.
  • Charts count ‘approved bootlegs’
    See the concert, buy the live songs to keep the magic going forever…see the songs hit the charts.
  • The Online Auteurs
    Move over Sundance and all that — does a low barrier for entry mean we’re all going to be auteurs?
  • How many hits?
    One man constructs the perfect hit — as a joke. Others think that if only they could crack the code behind hit songs, they could, well, foist the next Celine Dion on the world.
  • Sports Artist Sued for Mix of Crimson and Tide
    If it didn’t involve real people really being sued, some of these lawsuits would make for great comedy.
  • Blogs becoming force in advertising
    One, people actually believe advertising? Two, what happens when they discover that some bloggers are paid to promote product?
  • Google’s video service faces suit
    Interesting only because this one is weird. Also French.
  • MP3.com returns to music sharing with new features
    Hey Kidz, remember the 1990’s?
  • Lycos seeks rebirth as "virtual living room"
    Well, they’re back!!
  • Sony’s PS3 has problems running PS, PS2 games
    Oops.
  • American Hair Metal
    Still very silly, some twenty years down the line.
