La neutralité du Net à nouveau attaquée en justice aux Etats-Unis
Georges-Edouard DIAS's insight:

Le nouveau cadre réglementaire, qui n'est pas encore entré en vigueur, interdira notamment la création de « voies prioritaires », qui auraient pu permettre aux fournisseurs d'accès à Internet (FAI) de facturer les gros consommateurs de bande passante pour leur assurer une vitesse de connexion optimale. Cela aurait pu instaurer à un Internet à deux vitesses, entre les géants du Web pouvant se permettre de payer et ceux qui n'auraient pas disposé de ressources financières suffisantes.

Facebook May Host News Sites’ Content | Big Data in Business | Scoop.it
The social media giant is said to be in talks with several news publishers, offering to deliver their content quickly, in exchange for a certain loss of control over their readership.
Georges-Edouard DIAS's insight:

Facebook intends to begin testing the new format in the next several months, according to two people with knowledge of the discussions. The initial partners are expected to be The New York Times, BuzzFeed and National Geographic, although others may be added since discussions are continuing. The Times and Facebook are moving closer to a firm deal, one person said.

Quand la Silicon Valley recrute des stars de Wall Street
Georges-Edouard DIAS's insight:

Pour recruter sa nouvelle directrice financière, Google s'est tourné vers Wall Street. Le géant américain a débauché Ruth Porat, qui occupait jusque-là les mêmes fonctions au sein de Morgan Stanley, l'une des grandes banques d'affaires américaines. A 57 ans, la responsable, qui remplace le Canadien Patrick Pichette, officie désormais à l'un des postes les plus importants au sein de la firme de Mountain View. Son recrutement est un nouveau symbole de la bascule qui s'est effectuée ces dernières années entre la finance, mise à mal par la crise dessubprimes, et le high-tech.

Google Glass isn't dead, it's being 'made ready for users,' says Eric Schmidt

Google Glass isn't dead, it's being 'made ready for users,' says Eric Schmidt | Big Data in Business | Scoop.it
After Google stopped selling its wearable Glass device in January this year, many people speculated that the controversial gadget was on its way out for good. However, Google's executive chairman...
Georges-Edouard DIAS's insight:

Reports last December suggested that Google might be planning to launch a new, cheaper version of Glass this year. Intel was said to be supplying the innards, with the updated model also reportedly offering a refreshed design and longer battery life. Looking at this list of rumored fixes, it's clear that Google has a lot of work to do to make Glass a viable product. However, Schmidt's comments suggest the company is nothing if not committed. We haven't seen the end of Glass.

Georges-Edouard DIAS's insight:

Last year, reports surfaced that YouTube was set to acquire Twitch for $1 billion, though the streaming site was eventually snapped up by Amazon for $970 million last August. "Broadcasting and watching gameplay is a global phenomenon," Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos said at the time. Since then, Twitch has continued to grow, opening up to new platforms like game consoles, and expanding into new areas including live music. Meanwhile, events like Twitch plays Pokemon have turned into cultural sensations. According to the company's 2014 recap, Twitch now boasts 100 million viewers each month and 1.5 million broadcasters.
