Rather than using his real name, Mr. Mackey like many posters to chat room, created an online alter ego and posted his comments under a pseudonym. http://ssrn.com/abstract=1118602 The Perils of Mandatory Parental Controls and Restrictive Defaults by Adam Thierer [Progress & Freedom Foundation Progress on Point Paper] Abstract: Government regulation mandating restrictive parental control defaults for media devices would likely have unintended consequences and would not achieve the goal of better protecting children from objectionable content, whereas increased consumer education efforts would be more effective in helping parents control their child's media consumption. Restrictive defaults on parental control tools are not already widely in place in the market since there may not be a large demand for such restrictive tools where many parents already monitor their child's media consumption through household rules or self-monitoring. http://ssrn.com/abstract=1120324 ********************** INTERNET USE ********************** Who Owns Sports Coverage? ... Tension over sports blogging is one of the strains between sports franchises, leagues and reporters to have emerged during the digital age. The dispute has grown lately between the press and organized sports over issues like how reporters cover teams, who owns the rights to photographs, audio and video that journalists gather at sports events, and whether someone who writes only blogs should be given access to the locker room. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/21/business/media/21bloggers.html Struggling to Evade the E-Mail Tsunami Email has become the bane of some people’s professional lives.

Two thirds of schools and half of doctors make use of fast Internet connections, thanks to strong broadband growth in Europe. These are the findings of a Commission report on the results achieved so far with i2010, the EU's digital-led strategy for growth and jobs. http://europa.eu/rapid/pressReleasesAction.do?reference=IP/08/605&format=HTML&aged=0&language=EN&guiLanguage=en Europe embracing speedy fat pipes More than a quarter of a billion Europeans regularly use the internet with around 80 per cent of those people being hooked up to broadband connections.

As We Click With More Pals Online, The Idea of Friendship Multiplies Shadee Malaklou has lots of friends. A whole lot -- 1,295, according to her latest Facebook count.

When she went to Duke, where "I was quote unquote popular," social life was so competitive that sometimes invitations were based only on online determinations of how hot a person was, and whether her "friends" were cool. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/04/18/AR2008041800736.html A Widget's Worth Developers of add-on software widgets for Facebook have had little trouble drawing huge audiences for their applications, which allow social network users to gather and share all sorts of information, photos, and videos.

Deal: GooHoo's Dangerous Liaisons Yahoo! appears to be pushing its luck. On April 10, the struggling Internet portal said it was testing a partnership to allow Google to host a small percentage of its search advertisements for two weeks. On Thursday, a week later, it inched further toward a long-term deal with Google because the companies are pleased with the initial results of the experiment, according to The Wall Street Journal. http://www.forbes.com/technology/2008/04/17/microsoft-yahoo-google-tech-ebiz-cx_ag_0417yhoo.html The State of the Google: First-quarter revenues strong; economic apocalypse averted. In late February, an Internet analytics firm claimed that slightly fewer people were clicking on Google ads. Investors and analysts saw this as a sign of the end times—that perhaps even Google wasn't immune to the nation's mega-recession. Slate contributor Henry Blodget called it a "Google Disaster"; the company's previously unsinkable stock took a nose dive. But as I wrote last month, all of this teeth-gnashing was based on sketchy data. ComScore's numbers are merely an estimate, and its methodologies are opaque—a savvy investor should never use an ambiguous Web traffic report to forecast a company's growth or decline. Today's report on Google's first-quarter earnings would be the more telling announcement. Has the company really succumbed to the recession, or has it remained a mistake-proof colossus? http://www.slate.com/id/2189373/ Google profit rises 31 percent, beating Wall St. forecast Google said Thursday that its net income for the first three months of the year rose 31 percent on revenue growth of 42 percent from a year ago, topping estimates from Wall Street analysts. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/17/technology/17cnd-google.html http://iht.com/articles/2008/04/17/technology/17cndgoogle.php Google's clicks defy slowdown Google has defied predictions of doom by delivering a 31% surge in quarterly profits, appearing to vindicate its claim people will not stop searching the web while in a recession. http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2008/apr/18/google Google clears Wall Street profit estimate Google topped pessimistic Wall Street profit expectations Thursday, reporting a net income increase of 31 percent to $1.31 billion for its most recent quarter. http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9920424-7.html Yahoo, Microsoft, and the tailwind from Google With Google blowing past Wall Street's numbers for the quarter Thursday, expectations may rise for Yahoo, which reports its first-quarter results next week. http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9921680-7.html On the Internet, It’s All About ‘My’ It's not you, it’s me.

A few quick clicks will connect you to MyCoke, My IBM, My Subaru, MyAOL — even MyClick, a mobile-phone marketing company.
