In Changing News Landscape, Even Television is Vulnerable

From PewResearchCenter — Trends in News Consumption: 1991-2012

 

While traditional news platforms have lost audience, online news consumption has been undergoing major changes as well. Nearly one-in-five Americans (17%) say they got news yesterday on a mobile device yesterday, with the vast majority of these people (78%) getting news on their cell phone. Among smartphone owners, nearly a third (31%) got news yesterday on a mobile device.

 

The second major trend in online news consumption is the rise of news on social networks. Today, 19% of the public says they saw news or news headlines on social networking sites yesterday, up from 9% two years ago. And the percentage regularly getting news or news headlines on these sites has nearly tripled, from 7% to 20%.

Presque 2 ans après son lancement, la Freebox Revolution ne supporte toujours pas le standard WDS

Presque 2 ans après son lancement, la Freebox Revolution ne supporte toujours pas le standard WDS | cross pond high tech | Scoop.it
From bugs.freeplayer.org - December 19, 2012 5:14 PM

Ce projet correspond aux anomalies ou aux demandes d'évolutions logicielles pour le Freebox Server.

Philippe J DEWOST's insight:

Le WDS (Wireless Distribution System) est un protocole de la norme WiFi qui permet à des bornes de travailler ensemble et d'étendre un réseau sans fil unique. Par exemple d'ajouter des Airport Express et autres Time Capsules à un réseau Freebox existant plutôt que d'en créer un deuxième ou de bidouiller avec du CPL

 

Or pour une raison incompréhensible, et très peu commentée, Free n'a toujours pas activé cette fonctionnalité dans le firmware de sa Freebox alors qu'apparemment sa carte WiFi Marvell le supporte parfaitement ?

New Facebook for iOS changes UI (again) and limits photo uploads #fail

New Facebook for iOS changes UI (again) and limits photo uploads #fail | cross pond high tech | Scoop.it
From gizmodo.com - November 6, 2012 10:14 AM

UI design is about maintaining consistency while expanding possibilities. Looks like Facebook's latest iOS update does the opposite...

 

Today facebook changed (once again) the gestures that everybody knew by now (given the high usage rate of the app), which will induce latency, friction and frustration from single handed, zero attention span millions of users.

 

But maybe one can see some wisdom in such choices, that over time may be progressively forgotten.

 

More frustrating are some feature reductions, namely in the photo area of the app that now longer allows posting pictures that are not in the camera roll.

 

For instance, it is no longer possible to enrich a post with a photo picked in an existing album, including the photostream. This is a big restriction in terms of features and UI, with no understandable reason.
