Where TV finds the future

Latest feed entries:

Local search site CitySquares growing fast

According to numbers released by Quantcast, CitySquares.com is the fastest-growing search site on the web. Of course, CitySquares.com is starting from a small base — it expanded in June from the Boston area to New York and all of New England — and that makes up the 1500% percent traffic jump. But there’s [...]

Court to media: Careful with takedowns

A Pennsylvania woman uploaded a 29-second garbled clip to YouTube that featured her toddler dancing to Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy.” Universal sent YouTube a DMCA takedown order. YouTube yanked it. The woman put it back up and took on representation from the EFF to sue Universal. Now months later, while it’s unlikely [...]

4 more papers dropping AP

The Bakersfield Californian, The Spokesman-Review, The Yakima Herald-Republic and Wenatchee World are all following in the footsteps of The Post Register to drop Associated Press after the AP announced new rates. And the Review is trying to drop AP without the two-year required advance notice. Adds Rob in comments: “With Yakima and Wenatchee — two [...]

Local TV’s top advertisers

TV Week has the chart of the top 10 local TV advertisers and their growth/decline over last year. As you can see, most have declined, thanks in part to the economy. Meanwhile, Comcast continues its aggressive marketing push in both services and content.

Widgets coming to your TV

Comcast has teamed up with Intel and Yahoo to allow third-party developers to create web-connected widgets for TV. Like what kind of widgets, you ask? So far, the following companies are working on one: Blockbuster, CBS Interactive, CinemaNow, Cinequest, Comcast, Disney-ABC Television Group, eBay, GE, Group M, Joost, MTV, Samsung Electronics, Schematic, [...]

NewsCred.com attempts to rank credibility

Fresh out of private beta, NewsCred.com uses an algorithm to balance popularity with credibility to bring you your own personal newspaper. News sources, authors and even stories themselves are rated by users on a credibility scale. Hmmm. Since credibility is subjective — especially among known news brands — I’m a little unsure of [...]

New radio show: The iTunes Download

While some in the radio business cringe when they think of the popularity of iTunes and in-car iPods, mega radio syndicator Premiere Radio Networks has created a new show called The iTunes Download that counts down the 30 most downloaded iTunes songs. And it’s hosted by iTunes Director of Music Programming Alex Luke. [...]

Report: Local media has online ad advantage

A new report by the Online Publishers Association (overview | full .pdf) gives good marks to local TV and newspaper sites for compelling users to “take action” after seeing ads on those sites. “Our analysis of the Jupiter data finds that consumers are more likely to act on the ads they see on local [...]

Video network: 80% watching pre-rolls

Tremor Media, which is a video advertising network, says that 80% of its users watch pre-roll ads all the way to the content without closing the player. And here’s the surprise: the “completion rate” is nearly the same for both :15 and :30 pre-rolls. “While we wouldn’t suggest (30 seconds) as a best [...]

Yahoo opens up Buzz to all publishers

Yahoo Buzz has been working with selective publishers… until today. Now you can submit your site to Buzz, which puts your stories and blog posts to a vote. The stories with the most votes — and highest search popularity — make it to the home page. More info here on how to [...]

MyFoxHurricane.com covers T.S. Fay

The MyFox team and the Tampa FOX station have been covering Tropical Storm Fay’s approach on a multimedia-heavy weather site at myfoxhurricane.com. The site has a ton of information, but I’m most impressed with the active live chat along the side. At the time I wrote this, nearly 2,000 people were chatting about [...]

Topix CEO: Lack of local news helps us

There are some interesting takeaways from this column written by Topix CEO Chris Tolles. (Topix is a local news aggregator and community that’s focused on regions, cities and neighborhoods.) First, Tolles does some rough math: There are about 1,400 daily newspapers and 7,000 television and radio stations in the U.S., and back-of-the-envelope math shows [...]

Idaho paper cancels AP service

Calling it “the worst value for anything we purchase,” the Publisher of The Post Register of Idaho Falls has sent a letter to the AP announcing the end of their relationship effective August 15, 2010, according to Editor and Publisher. (AP requires a 2 year notice before canceling service.) It’s a bold move, but [...]
