Except that I fear I didn't explain one of my main points sufficiently well. Perfectly innocent picture, clothed, etc. It's not an ethical problem with bloggers, it's an adoption problem with the overall user community. And if that isn't enough, every halloween AMC showed all the classic Universal monster movies unedited and commercial free. Tomorrow the door will have closed again and you'll just be on the outside, listening to incessant pitches and wondering why other people are enjoying such success. I'd think that blogger was exploitative. The other common mistake that people make with page titles is that every single page should have a unique title that describes that page of information, not the site overall. So, if you're only seeing the movies, you're missing out. It's the same reason that bold and italic are so, so radically different in perception, even if most modern writers barely distinguish between the two. Quite the opposite: through the efforts of my good friends and colleagues Andy Jenkins and Brad Fallon, I'm now a faculty member of their extraordinary StomperNet. Whenever possible, the movie studios provide us with TV-ready versions of their movies designed to be acceptable to most TV networks. It is neither unethical nor a devious scheme to promote a dog. Personal commentary is out of place in a business oriented blog. What is wrong with a company trying to grow through the building of relationship and endearing consumers to their product? Or don't have a DVD drive? MyMovieNetwork runs contests to find the best filmmakers, provides tools for scouting, blogging and linking to personal film archives. As such, they really don't care about your personal musings, they only want your professional opinion. "Do Classic Movies Need to be Censored? Isn't that the point? Dave is an award-winning speaker, sought after conference and workshop participant and frequent guest on radio and podcast programs. That's why I really don't think that blogger ethics are that important. As I type this, for example, I'm watching a 1957 classic sci-fi film called The 27th Day, recorded off Turner Classic Movies. Personally, I just ran Microsoft's Vista readiness software on my one-year-old Lenovo X-41 Tablet PC. I don't know who would enjoy the mess they have now. I'd be happy to hear your install experiences with Vista. If your goal is to show off the goodness of Vista, you want it to be the best experience you can get, not a wild pot shot based on all of the different hardware varations that could be out there. Gold is up but black gold is down; nickel is up but copper has fallen apart. If you haven't checked out NewsGator Online recent, do note that there are many different ways you can now tweak your feed presentation:Back to my point, though! Anyhow, I don't think there was anything sinister behind this campaign. Here's how they explain it:Does AMC edit movies for content? This was a joint venture between MS and Acer, so therefore the real costs are probably a whole lot less than you've given. But if something major happens in my personal life, it may affect my 'blog voice. The reason we are behind of course, is some trouble in the commodity sectors. Or, stated another way, how do you get human contributors to help a new venture that will pay off for the money folks. That gives an audience insight into personality. >From What PC, InformationWeek and PC World to individual bloggers like Om >Malik, Jason Calacanis, Robert Scoble, etc etc. Disclosure is something that >we bloggers have been thrashing about since before there was a blogosphere. >Yes, that's subjective, but that's the point, isn't it? while working to repel >people you don't want to develop relationships with, anyway.
