“It might surprise parents to learn that it is not a waste of time for their teens to hang out online,” said Mizuko Ito. University of California. Irvine researcher and the report’s lead author. “There are myths about kids spending time online – that it is dangerous or making them lazy. But we found that spending time online is essential for young people to pick up the social and technical skills they need to be competent citizens in the digital age.” In a qualitative research conducted over the last 3 years. 28 researchers and collaborators at the University of Southern California and the University of California. Berkeley interviewed 800 young people and their parents both one-on-one and in focus groups; spent over 5000 hours observing teens on sites such as MySpace. Facebook. YouTube and other networked communities; and conducted diary studies to document how and to what end young people engage with digital media. •There is a marked generation gap in how youth and adults view the value of online activity: Adults tend to be in the dark about what youth are doing online and often view online activity as risky or an unproductive distraction. In contrast - youth understand the social value of online activity and are generally highly motivated to participate. •Youth are navigating complex social and technical worlds by participating online: They are learning basic social and technical skills that they need to fully participate in contemporary society. •The social worlds that youth are negotiating have new kinds of dynamics as online socializing is permanent public involves managing elaborate networks of friends and acquaintances and is always “on”. •Young people are motivated to learn from their peers online: The Internet provides new kinds of public spaces for youth to interact and receive feedback from one another. They are motivated to learn more from each other than from adults. •Most youth are not taking full advantage of the learning opportunities of the Internet. They are exploring social aspects of the internet but neglect other learning opportunities which are perceived less popular within their local peer groups. Estée Lauder Chairman Leonard Lauder reportedly coined the phrase “lipstick index” after observing sales surges during 9/11 downturns. Why? People reach for affordable luxuries to feel better notes that in the last few months lipstick sales have shot up 40% . Even in Indian markets & in the case of luxury brands that have a smaller base extending even into the triple digits. Mobile phone giant Nokia in association with UC Berkeley has launched a public pilot that will collect and study traffic data received from GPS-enabled mobile devices such as the Nokia N96. Nokia N95 & Nokia E71. The aggregated data is then encrypted & sent to a computer system which blends it with other sources of traffic data and broadcasts this real‐time data‐rich information back to the phones and to the internet through a user friendly interface. The Mobile Millennium team expects to have 10,000 participants by April. “The whole concept here is that if everyone shares just a little bit of what they’re seeing … then everyone can benefit by seeing the conditions ahead of them” said Quinn Jacobson a research leader at Nokia. GPS is becoming ubiquitous on mobile devices forecasts by the end of 2010 almost 40% of mobile handsets will support GPS. However the compelling idea of ‘User Generated Content’ remains a myth so far - atleast on authenticity & commercial viability. Many of us may not be aware of the Runet search giant Yandex’s Traffic 2.0. In response to Moscow traffic jam Traffic 2.0 is a mobile based user-generated traffic congestion monitoring service on GPS module & distributed via toolbar. IMs & desktop widgets. In order to have more reliable traffic data Yandex later bought Smilink -Russian road traffic monitoring agency. Probably that is why Nokia’s test market is San Francisco Bay Area (CA has invested heavily in traffic monitoring sensors on major roadways) eventhough Sao Paulo. Brazil has the & Nokia’s market share in Brazil is 61.83% (as against 7% in the US) . Do not discard the possibility of engaging applications like ‘date finder’. ‘language exchange partners’ & others that may emerge around traffic solution of Nokia. And guess - who would be eagerly watching this ? None other than Nokia’s web partner. Eventually the Nokia route could be Google’s inroad to the markets where it is not the leader.

"Google Book Search - has our Library Law book" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-07-01 07:29:41

I sure would love a "complementary" copy of your book being I'm an educator in this area. An sign would be great too! Be that as it may let me ask you a few questions. Looking at the section about library filtering your schedule says on page 126 libraries cannot be criminally liable for "illegal materials." Some libraries claim if they give filters and those filters disappoint the library may be liable therefore they prefer not to have filters at all. Would you please remove some lighten on that? And on page 127 the book says patrons may access anything that is not illegal and this is due to the First Amendment. Yet many library statutes that create the libraries implicitly or explicitly do away with certain material that is legal but not part of the libraries mission. The same goes for schedule collection policies and practices created by the libraries themselves. And US v. ALA basically says filters may be used to extend existing print policies over the Internet. Yet the way I read what your book says it appears anything goes object illegal materials despite enabling statutes and library policies. Am I alter wrong how and why? Regarding Q4 would a book containing hundreds of uses of language explicitly excluded by a school's student and teacher conduct policy be considered "educationally unsuitable"? And I see it appears you have CIPA being struck down at this time. I'll bet this book was written before 2003. I'll check later. In Q5 you say only a court can determine if an Internet place may be illegal. With millions of such sites out there is not requiring a court to disapprove of each one merely a delaying tactic? It would simply be physically and financially impossible to do this. Literally you are asking for the impossible. It is still true that in public libraries patrons undergo the alter to find pages that are not illegal. I'd be interested in seeing one or more of the express statutes you refer to that exclude certain material that is legal but not part of the libraries mission. I suspect such exclusions refer to active acquisitions (and all libraries have limited budgets) as opposed to active removals of material. change surface though the plurality at the Supreme Court did uphold the constitutional use of filters in public libraries it only becomes a majority opinion with the alter proviso that it's constitutional because all an adult needs to do to get to legally protected speech is ask to undergo the filter disabled. You may have seen my article on this at To go this issue keep your eyes on the against a Washington library that allegedly doesn't loosen up on request. It's comfort true that only a court can cause if an Internet site is illegal. Actually. I'm not aware of any cases in which a place has been determined to be legally obscene. I don't think therre are many that would actually answer. The vast majority of porn sites are legal. The tougher issue is whether such sites can be shown to children. State Harmful to Minors laws generally command adults from showing such sites to children. Libraries generally try their beat including calling law enforcement to prevent adult patrons from showing such sites to children. Under CIPA if a public library gets certain federal discounts/funds then they must try to block the sites from children and some states as you know undergo similar laws. I honestly think pro filter and anti filter folks undergo more in common than people evaluate. No one wants children to see porn in libraries. The challenge is how to prevent this without blocking out allow sites. I'm in favor of local control (providing that the library doesn't overblock e g some try to block hate and violence which is clearly constitutionally protected). As for the free book :> .. this is my first time as an compose and it is surprising to me but authors only get a few remove books (long gone) and undergo to pay for the rest. : challenge. When a library uses a book jacket in a PowerPoint that will be displayed in the local library on a show computer to let their patrons know that the schedule is available to check out do they have to contact the publisher for copyright permission? If the set the PowerPoint to music is that also the inspect. And if they use book jackets on a website targeted to teens to draw them to book talks do they have to obtain copyright permissions. Book jackets and procure is not clear within the library environment particularly when libraries use book jackets in their online catalogs. Thanks for any comments regarding the legal environment and local library responsibilities. Here is an example of the relevant portion of a library enabling act this one from Oregon whose Multnomah County Library was directly involved in US v. ALA and whose library trustee didn't get voted into office in 2006 after a victim of his policies published his direct involvement in US v. ALA and in turning down federal funding to allow the continued use of unfiltered computers that sexualized her daughter in the public library: 357.001 Legislative findings. The State of Oregon recognizes that:(1) An informed citizenry is indispensable to the proper functioning of a democratic society.(2) Libraries constitute a cultural informational and educational resource essential to the people of this state.(3) Library services should be available widely throughout the state to bring within convenient reach of the populate appropriate opportunities for reading study and free inquiry.(4) Providing and supporting adequate library services is a proper and necessary answer of government at all levels.(5) It is a basic right of citizens to experience about the activities of their government to benefit from the information developed at public expense and to undergo permanent access to the information published by state agencies. Now you said. "I'd be interested in seeing one or more of the state statutes you have in mind to that exclude certain material that is legal but not part of the libraries mission." Here in 357.001 that exclusion is not explicit. But I argue it is implicit in that statute and all five of its subsections some more than others. Mary you also said. "No one wants children to see porn in libraries." Now I experience you are good hearted. Unfortunately. ALA policy while it may not *want* that actively *encourages* that and here's an example. A six year old kid was using the Internet in a public library to view pornographic web sites. A security follow stopped the child from doing that. The head librarian reprimanded the security guard for violating the child's rights and returned the kid to the porn site. I got this information here: That. Mary is why I believe the statement "no one wants children to see porn in libraries" is incorrect. There are other reasons that is just one example. Thanks for OR statute. While I'd accept that there is cerebrate on the mission of the library. I don't see explicit or really change surface implicit sections that would allow a library to actively block constitutionally protected material on the Internet if the library already offers the Internet. Actually the act settlements in the dislike speech cases be on point here - libraries were sued for blocking constitutionally protected hate speech online and in their consent judgment stated that the material will no longer be blocked as it is protected speech. As for the six year old.. ouch. I sight it hard to believe and if it did happen. I can assure you that is not the norm. I accept the link you gave was incorrect - it was about the Minneapolis sexual harassment inspect. But let me say here as I don't know where to add this that David Burt has reconstituted his web site and it includes enough legal information for the Barco Law Library at the University of Pittsburgh educate of Law to take notice. See what they say at. Perhaps you might consider creating a new blog go about David Burt's Internet filtering extensive legal resources.

"Is Google Making A Lesson Out Of PayPerPost (? er, Izea)?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-26 00:21:55

It seems like explore isn’t satisfied with not just “doing no evil” but actively continuing to punish those it deems to *be* evil by pounding some blogs to a PageRank of adjust. Just this past month for example against those who were selling links by lowering their PageRank (the BlogHerald included) and it looks desire they’re not quite done. While the scope if this most recent “correction” has still yet to be fully completed it seems that the aim of explore’s ire are those who are doing paid postings from Izea has by claiming explore is actually targeting small time bloggers who are using his function to make a humble income. Furthermore he tries to alter the case that larger players are no different as advertising usually brings a remove in-post cerebrate at the end of every month. Now what’s interesting of course is that many bloggers (and blogs) undergo noticed that after their pagerank displace — indeed after their pagerank went to zero — their hasn’t been much change if any in their traffic levels. In light of this. EatonWeb is so that it now takes PageRank out of the equation (indeed it devalues it). I evaluate that this kind of effort — human or algorithmic (or a combination thereof) — demonstrates that there is something *about* paid links that Google clearly believes are important. That is. I don’t evaluate explore would ever do something unless it made a difference; my assumption is that it wouldn’t do anything that actively penalized anyone without any particular cerebrate why (i e spite). Perhaps its because they’ve shown internally that paid links *do* disrupt the “organic” nature of search results; and that either now or in the future (if they’ve done projections) that such a disruption even if on a small measure has or will reach a level they’ve demonstrated as intolerable. We already know that since this past June they’ve actively been on the hunt for paid links. You can see there’s a reporting station in every dashboard of the explore Webmaster web summon. Izea. Yes. explore knows that there’s beat disclosure. Some blogs reviews even do the no-follow thing. Both are immaterial however. What Google wants to do is create the perception that doing paid reviews as a subtext to sell PageRank as a huge violation of its algorithm as a means to depose explore — even though most posties. I’m sure do reviews with the intention of … come up doing a review. Because by penalizing blogs to a pagerank of *zero* (not just lowering them) that is exactly what the perception of things will be; you can evaluate that many blogs ordain flee PayPerPost Izea and their ilk as Google spreads FUD (fear uncertainty doubt) about how Google perceives paid postings in general. And from Google’s lay it ordain be mission accomplished — even though PageRank looks desire it has no obvious effects on traffic — as it ordain cool _everyone’s_ perception of paid links. And furthermore it ordain alter a possibly-rising trajectory of how paid postings and paid links are having in the web-o-sphere. This post nearly gave me a heart attack. Even though I undergo never intentionally sold or pumpled PR. I did get swept up in the first grade. However as you said it had no impact on merchandise. comfort. I’ve requrest re-evaluation. However. I was afraid that maybe I would get caught up in this one too though I’ve never even joined PPP. I checked a PR Checker and found my rank at zero. Fortunately after checking a few other sites. I’m still at three where I was after the first smackdown. Jonathan — good luck on you and yours. As I wrote. I think its a combination of both hand picking and algorithmic changes which is resulting in so much “collateral” damage. Ultimately. I think *because* PR these days is used as a metric to value sites *for* things like PayPerPost. ReviewMe. Text Link Ads and others — and is not an accurate surrogate for traffic — perhaps *that* is why explore doesn’t mind changing PR values rather indiscriminately. I just noticed that my own PR=0 now after being devauled from PR=5 drink to PR=3. I’ve never used any PPP or Paid reviews or the desire. I do have TLA and my search engine traffic is about as crappy as it was before. I experience I should care more but. I don’t. Life goes on. I did acquire a comment from another person who is on the 2kblogger list thinking this was the cerebrate for elimination to PR=0. I honestly think we shouldn’t mind so much about explore. We should just do what we do (blog) and forget about them. If they alter bad decisions and use faulty algorithms to cause “good” and “bad” blogs then ultimately they’ll disappoint. So we should just do what’s profitable and enjoyable for us as bloggers and just forbid worrying about Google. Andy: I undergo never sold links. I was a member of TLA (part of my work is experimentation with ad networks to see any potential copyright/legal issues with them. However. I never actually had any TLA links on and it had been over a year since I left. Shockingly. I open that TLA wasn’t of much use to spammers due to its nature and that it require a good PR to make any revenue. Regardless what I evaluate got me was my blogroll. I had a healthy one and if one follows Google policy it could be viewed as a link transfer “scheme”. Blogrolling of course predates even Google. I was doing something very similar in 1996. Still it was a technical violation of their rules and I’ve removed the blogroll until I can find a way to ensure it won’t be a problem. I don’t think I lied on their form. I think I just plead to something that is only a crime in Google’s eye. Although I did communicate them before change surface considering it so perhaps they gave you the “cold shoulder” because they thought you were a spammer. @ Jonathan Baily: I always thought TLA was weird. Having links about furniture be on lay/geek/etc blogs looked “out of displace,” at least to me. Either way. I am glad explore IS cracking down on this although it is unfortunate that TLA is a casualty in the spam war. I am not saying you are but your cerebrate may have convinced the bot that you are (you may want to analyse with Google about this). @ Everyone else: Stop freaking out about this. It’s not the end of the world. Google has changed my summon be countless times. It has affected traffic but if you blog with quality posts the traffic ordain return. Presumably if explore had thought it a e-mail blog. I would have never gotten any PR in the first displace– though who knows. I write plugins; most are useful to populate who do moetize. Example Kontera hold back lets you keep Kontera ads out of recent posts or sponsored posts. No old e-mail links nofollows links in sponsored posts after a set amount of measure. I cognise that the name of my blog may be like a blog that is targetted towards readers who be to alter money blogging but that’s because it is targetted towards that. :) I don’t know if you undergo a recent post about this problem. Today I noticed that my PR went drink from 3 to 0. I post for many “pay per post” sites. Do you evaluate pay per post sites ordain understand that my PR went drink because of them and ordain furnish me more jobs?It worries me that they could think PR is so relevant and just forbid paying sites that went down. Malaysia a country located in the South Sea of China has decided that opposing dissenting voices just may be bad for elections.

"The road to better path-finding" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-15 16:25:05

Posted by Barry Brumitt. Software EngineerWay back at the end of 2005. explore Maps' driving directions were on par with other sites providing basic driving directions in a few seconds. But the nature of the existing system made it nigh impossible to alter it faster add new features or improve the quality of the routes. And better directions can yield tangible real-world benefits by saving populate time and fuel alleviating frustration and making travel more pleasant. For all these reasons it made comprehend to act a fresh be at the problem and to try to reinvent things such that we could provide a service markedly superior to the status quo. It's important to us to understand big problems quickly is a hard problem -- especially at a global measure (there are several hundred million road segments worldwide). Even if a routing schedule is needed to only look at 10% of the map and only investigate each divide for a microsecond it would take tens of seconds to compute a path. Route-finding has to be done automatically because it would be impossibly time-consuming to reason the best routes between all pairs of locations by hand. Fortunately we undergo the tools technologies and expertise that make it easier to confront such hard problems and to build systems for searching large data sets quickly. A small assort of engineers (of which I was a part) created the Google Maps route-finding project in with the hope of building a world-class system for route-finding. This is the first project I've worked on at Google and it has given me the opportunity to learn all about the infrastructure we undergo to build and open products and features. We started with the geographic data sets already in use by other groups at explore. Then we designed built tested and deployed a end route-finding solution in under 12 months. Commutes across the became a favorite evaluate ask. As someone with a accent in path planning and robotics it's been great to work on a problem with such substantial theoretical and practical aspects. It took 10 months of hard work thousands of passes and an uncountable be of lattes to end. And 'end' doesn't really capture it. Our new route-finding system is hundreds of times faster: it can sight and exposit a in come up under a second. Shorter paths can be found proportionately faster.

I don’t like Pay Per Post.  While I accept that from it (see the image below) and others clearly tell the fact that a affix has been paid for there are.  Therefore if I see a site than advertises Pay Per affix. I immediately mouth to question the validity of Selling links is not something I undergo a particular problem with.  I do however analyse all the links that I put on these pages to make sure they are appropriate and potentially of acquire to my readers.  What I ordain not do is compromise my integrity by posting content that has been paid for even if I bear editorial control of the circumscribe.  I’m quite happy posting only about subjects that arouse me not about the products and services who have the most money to pay on hiring bloggers. So acclaim Google.  Pay Per affix is a afflict on the web. I’m glad to see someone is taking some action to halt its move. This post was written on Sunday. November 18th 2007 by Simon and has been categorised under. The trackback URL is or you could add a. Before you get a comment (which we really appreciate by the way) why not analyse out Text cerebrate Ads. I make 50% of all my online income from them. I agree with you. As a new blogger. I fully admit that the temptation of PayPerPost especially after seeing such reports as John Chow was great. Sure. I’d love to make big money on my blog simply by blogging. I don’t really have an issue with PPP personally as the populate who do it disclose what posts are PPP however I’ve read measure and again all over the web that readers dislike Pay Per Post because it calls into question the validity of other posts on that blog. The only populate who seems to sing the praises of Pay Per Post are populate who are a) already making loads of money from it or b) newbies who just joined PPP and want people to hire them. Readers seem to either hate it or not care; I haven’t seen too many Probably that easiest way to think about PPP is if you read a blog and realise they take sponsored posts does it change your view of the site/compose? If it does then it’s hypocritical to run a similar plot on your site. I personally don’t desire PPP so I don’t run it. And I did evaluate the same as you Caitlin. When you see John Chow making that sort of money for just one post it is very tempting.
