Video: Joe Panettieri, Editorial Director of Nine Lives Media, Inc. and MSPmentor.net, discusses the past, present and future of Managed Services as part of the TELEHOUSE America monthly seminar series, Breakfast on Broadway.

Video: When anyone copies a work, there are no set rules about what constitutes “fair” use or “infringing”. Courts apply more than one factor in making their rulings, and one court may weight these factors differently than another. William Paltry, Senior Copyright Counsel, Google, focuses upon fair use in the context of B2B commerce, and identifies some of the pitfalls and precautions that every publisher or media provider should bear in mind.

Video: Waves of change, sometimes continuous sometimes terrifying, sometimes they seem to die out altogether, but there are relentless and unavoidable. Reflecting on waves of change, comes from three key sources, new technologies, new business models driven by technologies, unpredictable change of pace.

Video: We apparently do like to watch. Web-delivered video has gone mainstream, with more than one in two Americans watching regularly, and with video ad growth sharing fastest-growth leadership with social publishing. New distribution networks are popping up overnight as publishers and aggregators struggle with applying what they’ve learned from the text-based web.

Video: With presidential debates on YouTube, bloggers on NBC and Facebook as the networking platform of choice, new media is marching into new spaces. At the same time, “old” media are morphing the new ones into hard-nosed business models. Witness Fox with MySpace. Will the old moguls own the new?

Video: As the search engine marketplace consolidates there are new ways of looking at content that go beyond traditional search engine technologies into forms and formats that place more emphasis on enabling editorial capabilities and complete content products. Yesterday’s search results page is becoming one of many filtered feeds that support today’s mined analytics, rich editorial output and on-the-fly aggregation tools. How do search technologies create marketable content value today – and how do more valuable content products get built using search technologies?

Video: Google first focuses on the user. It doesn’t start on technology, but backs into whatever applications are interesting. The practice of this is remarkable. Bottom-up innovation, not one product comes from a senior executive, always a small group of people. Google management always says don’t present me with a problem, present me with a problem with a possible answer. Googlers thought “wouldn’t this be great.”

Video: innovation can thrive in many publishing environments, it’s not all about Silicon Valley but applying their lessons and the tried and true lessons – speak to your customers is Steve Goldstein’s mantra, and it’s an important one – is possible in any content company.

Video: Innovation in software and communications helps to drive U.S. economic growth, high-paying jobs. The State department knows how important your work is, 30 people dedicated to information industry policy and helping to create market oppotunities and social improvement, and yes, political freedom. Finally we recognize the continuing development of U.S. information industry is in jeopardy. $200 billion counterfeit content sold overseas. What is the state department doing? Answer is, a lot, it’s a big focus.

Video: The Washington Post is a good example of a strong local news organization with national impact that is still struggling to find growth in spite of being profitable. the rise of ad networks has broken papers’ lockhold on local ads and created far more competition for national and global ads. Newspapers are reluctant to move into virtual aggregation of local content and becoming ad networks in their own rights, yet that’s where the money is going.
