Chris Cantell Discusses Search Maps, Google Earth, SigEx Telecom, Christopher Cantell, Frederic Artru: Microsoft Live Search Maps vs. Google Earth

by Ana Maria Ciobanu

Have you always wanted to visit New York City, but never had the chance to make it happen? Have you lived in the city for years, but still struggle to find your way around? Microsoft Corp. is making it easy to find the city landmarks, people and businesses that are important to you -- giving you a sense of what it's like to really be there -- with the launch of New York City in 3-D.Microsoft, Google, Yahoo and other search engine providers have been busy improving their local search services because they have become very popular with users and advertisers alike.Unlike searches conducted on a general Web search engine, which can stem from a variety of intentions, those performed on local search sites tend to be motivated by a desire to shop, which is very attractive for advertisers.Meanwhile, users have found that these local search engines act like phone directories on steroids, providing not only basic information like phones and addresses, but also customer reviews, driving directions, and maps.Microsoft will integrate ads into these 3D models in a way it considers organic, by displaying them on virtual billboards the users will encounter as they zip around the cities.Like other local search sites, Live Search lets users find business listings, places them on maps, offers driving directions and displays real-time traffic information.Google's Google Earth offers a similar experience, but it isn't browser-based. Instead, Google Earth is an application that has to be downloaded to a PC and that has its own user interface. Google's local search service also offers maps but it doesn't replicate the immersive and interactive experience offered by Google Earth.Google Earth is a downloadable Windows desktop application that links information from the Google Local service to satellite images from Keyhole.You can use your mouse to spin the virtual globe in any direction, or you can enter a place name, an address, or even a description ("best hotel in Manhattan") in the search box under the 'Fly To' tab to zoom like a superhero to that location. The type of info displayed varies depending on which Layers options you choose (you can pinpoint hotels, parks, or even census data, for example).This eye-popping experience may seem like a novelty right now, because currently most uses of online maps are tied to displaying driving routes along with directions. However, very soon, people will use online maps as starting points for discovering information, and then graphical richness and interactivity will go from being simply cool to being useful and mainstream.

Google prinde din urma Microsoft cu ajutorul noului produs GearsCorespondentul specializat in tehnologie al ziarului englez The Guardian, Bobbie Johnson, relateaza despre Google care a tras ieri un semnal de alarma catre Microsoft odata cu lansarea noului software care permite oamenilor sa foloseasca serviciile sale chiar daca nu sunt conectati la internet.Joi Google a anuntat la Ziua Intreprinzatorului lansarea Google Gears, un plug-in pentru browsere care permite utilizatorilor sa foloseasca aplicatiile de internet offline. Prima aplicatie ca va folosi Google Gears este Google Reader, aplicatia Rss feed.Directorul tehnologic al Google care a expus pe scurt despre Google Gears, a spus ca Google a creat plug-in-ul pentru ca clientii aplicatiei lor erau nemultumiti pentru ca nu puteau luca offline.Anuntul va fi urmarit cu atentie de Microsoft, care recent a lansat proprul sistem, Silverlight, pentru a estompa golul dintre lumile online si offline. Sosirea pe piata a produsului Gears ar putea fi amenintatoare pentru ca probabil va ajuta Google Docs, suita companiei de office software, facand o provocare pentru miezul software-ului office de afaceri al Microsoft.Docs- care incorporeaza procesarea cuvintelor, spreadsheet si prezentarea programelor - lucreaza doar cu o conexiune activa la internet. Permitandu-i sa opereze pe un hard de computer, l-ar aduce in competitie cu marca dominanta a Microsoft Office si ar marca ultimii pasi dar inceti ai Google in necrutatoarea invazie a teritoriului companiei din Seattle.Directorul executiv al Google, Eric Schimdt, spune ca dand programatorilor externi abilitatea sa dezvolte sistemul ar intari pozitia sa."cu Google Gears, abordam o limitare a cheilor browser-ului pentru ca platforma sa devina mai puternica pentru a se putea desfasura toate felurile de aplicatii" spune el. "Noi credem cu tarie in puterea comunitatii de a se adapta la aceasta noua tehnologie pana la limita a ce poate fi posibil si in final a aparea cu un standard deschis care avantajeaza pe toata lumea.""Aceasta este o schimbare completa de la strategia portalului din anii '90", spune Jeff Huber, vicepresedintele tehnologic al Google. "Pe vremea aceea toata lumea era pentru sine, nu exista nici un fel de integrare cu rivalii si lucrai doar pentru sine. Acum ne gandim la produsele noastre ca la niste blocuri de locuinta. Este un ciclu virtuos."

Chris Cantell Discusses Call Center, Chat, Live Chat, SigEx Telecom: SigEx Telecom: Call centre vs Chatbot

by Ana Maria Ciobanu
Ziarul The Economist a publicat un articol in data de 8 Martie 2007 cu titlul "Call and response"(Apel si raspuns). Articolul prezinta cat de enervant poate fi sa suni la un call centre. Belle Mellor autoarea articolului scrie : "call centre-urile sunt printre factorii principali de stres ai lumii moderne".Cercetatorii care lucreaza la programe de software conversational, sau chatboti isi doresc sa suplimenteze si chiar sa inlocuiasca operatorii umani cu software capabil sa inteleaga limbajul unei conversatii normale, si astfel sa gestioneze apelurile mult mai eficient. IBM, de exemplu a dezvoltat o "analiza a discursului", program care asculta conversatiile dintr-un call centre si observa cuvinte si propozitii chei. Un alt sistem dezvoltat de IBM se numeste Sensei si ajuta la asigurarea bunei intelegeri intre client si operator, imbunatatind pronuntia, gramatica si puterea de intelegere a operatorului. Acest program a fost folosit la selectarea candidatilor pentru posturile de operator call centre in India si pentru trainingul acestora odata ce au obtinut slujbele.Chatbotii pot fi capabili sa grabeasca procesul de operare intr-un call centre dar aceeasi tehnologie ar putea la fel de bine sa inrautateasca lucrurile- daca bot-ul nu va intelege clientii sau le va oferi raspunsuri nepotrivite. Articolul din The Economist se indoieste ca vreodata call centre-urile vor fi complet automatizate, pentru ca vor fi intotdeauna niste probleme care vor necesita asistenta complet umana

Chris Cantell Discusses Cell Phones, Wireless, WiMAX, SigEX Telecom: Ce mai e nou in domeniul wireless?

by Notme dfsfs

In ultimii ani, telefoanele mobile au evoluat de la simple dispozitive de comunicare in centrale electronice multimedia. La inceput au aparut camerele foto si video, apoi navigarea pe internet, apoi playerele de muzica. Acum, trebuie sa ne pregatim pentru noi trasaturi ale telefoanelor mobile.In urmatorii doi pana la trei ani, consumatorii vor putea avea pe telefoanele mobile televiziune cu o calitate mai buna a imaginii decat ofertele video actuale - si o serie de programe live de la retele mari de televiziune cum ar fi NBC, FOX, ABC si Comedy Central.Utilizatorii vor avea de asemenea si aplicatii software sofisticate pentru a naviga de pe mobil pe internet si mai multe servicii pentru a se conecta cu prietenii, a distribui filme si a face schimb de poze. Si cel mai probabil vor putea vedea dispozitive mobile care vor putea strabate usor de la zona Wi-Fi, retele mobile si retele noi de date cu viteza mare, aducand o navigare mai rapida si mai placuta.Pe termen lung, progresul in tehnologia bateriilor, afisajului si stocarii ar putea face posibila comprimarea mai multor functii in dispozitive mai mici. Toate telefoanele mobile s-ar putea extinde si mai mult trecand de taramul comunicatiilor, pentru a putea fi folosite ca si carduri de credit pentru a plati cumparaturile, pentru bilete de avion, carduri de identificare pentru a fi folosite a punctele de control sau ca dispozitive de stocare de date.Este foarte des faptul ca in industria wireless, multe din noile servicii provin din Asia de Est - cu companii din Japonia si Coreea de Sud si acum Europa de Vest si SUA.Operatorii de telefonie mobila in piete dezvoltate se infrunta cu cresterea inceata de abonati pe masura ce procentajul de consumatori care nu detin un telefon mobil se micsoreaza. Pentru a mari venitul, ei trebuie sa gaseasca modalitati noi de intregrare de dispozitivelor mobile in vietile oamenilor. In mod similar, producatorii de telefoane trebuie sa convinga oamenii care au deja un telefon sa cumpere altele noi.Cercetatorii anticipand incearca sa gaseasca modalitati noi pentru a integra imprimate in telefoane capabile sa produca imprimate photo color. O companie numica Zink Imaging LLC a Waltham, Mas., spune ca a gasit o modalitate de a printa imagini color fara cerneala sau benzi, ci folosind o hartie speciala cu cristale care pot fi vopsite prin intermediul caldurii.

Chris Cantell Discusses Digital Content, Lala.com, SigEx Telecom: Ascultati muzica gratuit, dar platiti pentru a beneficia

by Notme dfsfs

Incepand din 5 iunie, vizitatorii site-ului Lala.com al companiei Lala Media Inc. din Palo Alto, vor putea asculta muzica gratuit pe calculatoarele lor de pe catalogul digital al Warner Music Group Corp. si al sutelor de companii de muzica independente. Directorii Lala afirma ca lucreaza la asigurarea licentelor cu alte trei mari companii de muzica.Este un serviciu de muzica pe baza de abonare, dar fara taxa de abonare lunara. Lala pariaza pe faptul ca ascultatorii in schimbul obtinerii accesului gratuit la muzica de acasa, vor cumpara melodiile pe care le vor vrea sa le aiba pe iPod-uri sau alte playere de muzica. Preturile vor varia de la 6.50$ pana al 13.50$ pentru un album. (Pentru moment, Lala planuieste sa vanda muzica doar ca si albume decat cantec cu cantec.)Lala, ai carei proprietari sunt Bain Capital LLC si alti investitori din Silicon Valley, gireaza acordarea gratuita platind marcile mari cu 6 pana la 8$ pe utilizator in fiecare luna, la fel ca si rata de vanzare en-gros platita de serviciile online de abonare la muzica cum ar fi Rhapsody a companiei RealNetworks Inc. Dar in timp ce Rhapsody si competitorii sai vor percepe utilizatorilor 12$ pe luna pentru "tot ce pot downloada online", Lala.com nu le va percepe nimic. Si in timp ce Rhapsody si competitorii sai cer utilizatorilor sa incarce programe speciale- ocazional nefunctionale- pentru a putea accesa ofertele lor, Lala va functiona printr-un browser normal. Utilizatorii serviciului Lala pot creea si salva playlist-uri, le pot trimite prietenilor si pot "rasfoi" colectiile virtuale ale altor utilizatori - si toate acestea gratis.Lala planuieste sa foloseasca sistemul sau de preturi variabile ca un fel de program de loialitate pentru clienti. Preturile joase vor fi folosite ca "o recompensa nu ca o atractie", spune domnul Nguyen. "Este ca un sistem din Las Vegas: cu cat cumperi mai mult, primesti oferte mai bune."Domnul Nguyen, directorul executiv al Lala.com afirma ca ei urmaresc sa fie la fel de mari ca magazinul iTunes in 18 luni pana la 2 ani. El spera sa faca asta fara sa acapareze clientii Apple ci recrutand altii noi."Lala urmareste sa mute 90% din piata industriei muzicale care inca cumpara CD-uri, pe suport digital", spune domnul Nguyen. "Obtinand clientii iTunes pe Lala ar fi fara sens".Lala.com are legatura cu alta afacere online care spera in obtinerea cumparatorilor si vanzatorilor de CD-uri folosite. Are 300.000 de abonati activi care au liste cu ce CD-uri vor sa schimbe si liste cu ce CD-uri vor sa dobandeasca.

Chris Cantell Discusses Telecom, Orange, France Telecom, Deutsche Telecom, SigEx Telecom: Deutsche Telecom cumpara unitatea wireless a France Telecom

by Notme dfsfs

Reprezentantul Deutsche Telekom a anuntat miercuri ca vor cumpara unitatea de telefonie mobila a France Telecom SA si compania de internet Orange Olanda, intr-o afacere in care unitatea spaniola Ya.com va fi vanduta catre compania franceza.Compania Deutsche Telekom din Bonn a afirmat intr-o declaratie ca va primi 320 milioane de euro (432.42 milioane $) de la France Telecom pentru Ya.com dar nu a dezvaluit cat vor plati pentru unitatea wireless a companiei franceze sau pentru Orange Olanda.Dow Jones Newswires, citand o persoana implicata in afacere, afirma ca ca pretul achizitionarii pentru Orange este in jur de 1.3 miliarde euro (1.76 miliarde $).Afacerea este supusa unei aprobarii reglementare a consiliului Orange Olanda. Daca este reusita, va combina Telekom si Orange, cei doi operatori ai Olandei, plasandu-i pe locul doi dupa liderul pietei Royal KPN NV si inaintea Vodafone PLC.France Telecom, unul din principalii operatori de telecomunicatii mondiali, a avut aproape 160 de milioane de clienti in 5 continentte ( 220 de tari sau teritorii) din 31 decembrie 2006, din care doua treimi sub marca Orange. In 2006, grupul a realizat venituri solide de 1.7 miliarde euro.Orange a avut aproximativ 1.9 miliarde de clienti de telefonie mobila si 612.000 utilizatori de internet. T-Mobile, unitatea de telefonie mobila a Deutsche Telekom are 2.5 milioane de clienti in Olanda.Achizitionarea unitatii Ya.com va ingusta in continuare numarul furnizorilor de servicii de internet de viteza mare din Spania la doar 4. Deja companii ca Ya, Telefonica SA, Jazztel PLC si Ono furnizeaza acest serviciu.Ya, marca companiei T-online Spania, are 400.000 de utilizatori. A fost pusa la zid dupa ce Deutsche Telekom a inceput sa-si schimbe planurile de expansiune a unitatii sale T-Mobile.Telekom a cumparat Ya de la Jazztel in 2000 pentru 550 milioane Euro in 2000. Ya.com, creata in 1999, este acum al treilea furnizor ADSL din Spania, si ofera pe langa accesul la internet, si o serie de servicii inovatie pe piata spaniola (televiziune ADSL, televiziune la cerere, si telefonie nelimitata), pentru care trei sferturi din clinetii sai sunt inscrisi.Actiunile Deutsche Telekom au scazut la 0.86% si la inchidere 13.85 euro (18.72$) inainte ca afacerea sa fie anuntata.

by Ana Maria Ciobanu
Website-urile retail isi obtin 25% din trafic prin motoarele de cautare, conform Hitwise(leaderul serviciilor de inteligenta competitiva online). Si cu cat mai multa informatie ofera retailerii internetului, cu atat mai mult clientii isi vor face cumparaturile la magazinele lor si se vor intoarce la site-urile lor.Motoarele de cautare si-au intensificat rolul lor de a trimite vizitatori la site-urile de shopping cu 0.7 % din mai 2006 pana in mai 2007 si Google a trimis cel mai mult trafic, conform raportului Hitwise emis saptamana aceasta.Un alt sondaj a anuntat saptamana aceasta ca exista toate sansele pentru cumparatori de a cumpara din magazinele traditionale si a se intoarce la site-ul retailerilor care ofera informatii complete despre produs.Cautarile de un singur cuvant, incluisv cautarile de domeniu si URL au reperezentat 23.7% din termenii de cautare care trimit traficul catre site-urile specializate de shoppping.O crestere de 20 de procente a cautarilor de un singur cuvant incepand cu mai 2005, sustine cresterea utilizarilor toolbar-urilor- ca mijloc principal de facilitare a navigarii pe World Wide Web.Site-urile de tip retea sociala determina de asemenea un procentaj mic al vizitelor pe site-urile de shopping specializate. Conform Hitwise primele 20 de retele sociale online si-au crescut influenta asupra site-urilor de retail cu 86.7% din mai 2006 pana in mai 2007. Deloc surpinzator, MySpace cea mai populara retea sociala, a fost raspunzator pentru aproape intregul procentaj. Bill Tancer, general manager de cercetare globala la Hitwsie, a prezentat aceste noi trenduri in searching si altele la conferinta Internet Retailer 2007 din San Jose, saptamana aceasta.Hitwise General Manager of Global Research Bill Tancer presented those search trends and others at the 2007 Internet Retailer conference in San Jose this week.

Chris Cantell Discusses YouTube, Digital Content, SigEx Telecom: SigEx Telecom: YouTube disponibil pe telefoanele mobile de

by Notme dfsfs

Cofondatorul Steve Chen, nascut in Taiwan, al popularului extravagant site de distribuire video YouTube, a afirmat sambata ca de anul viitor consumatorii din multe parti ale lumii vor putea avea acces la site de pe telefoanele lor mobile.Chen a facut aceste remarci pe masura ce vorbea sutelor de utilizatori entuziasti ai internetului la un forum al dezvoltarilor pe internet din Taipei. Vorbind in limba sa nativa, co-fondatorul YouTube a subliniat faptul ca videoclipurile trebuie sa se potriveasca navetistilor.Navetistii din metrouri sau autobuze sunt cel mai probabil sa acceseze videoclipuri intre 30 si 60 de secunde fiecare, in timp ce oamenii care efectueaza calatorii lungi cu trenului probabil ca vor accesa fisiere care merg pana la 10 minute, spune el.Pe masura ce tehnologia internet se dezvolta, site-urile ar trebui sa furnizeze un continut mai bogat si o mobilitate mai mare pentru ca utilizatorii sa aiba acces la ele de oriunde, spune Chen.Chen a fost nascut in Taiwan in 1978 si a emigrat in SUA cu familia sa la varsta de 8 ani. A pus bazele site-ului de distribuire video in San Mateo, California, impreuna cu colegul sau Chad Hurley in 2005 dupa ce au gasit videoclipurile lor prea mari pentru a fi trimise prin e-mail.De la un an de la lansarea sa, ei au vandut YouTube lui Google pentru 1.65 miliarde $.Chen, purtand cercei si blugi, a subliniat ca nu a primit atat de multa atentie cand a vizitat ultima oara Taiwan in 2005."Nu m-am asteptat deloc sa fie atat de multi fotografi", a afirmat el.Chen este directorul departamentului tehnologic, iar Hurley este directorul executiv al companiei.

Google are politicile de intimitate cele mai abisale si conduce o "cursa in jos" pe langa cele mai cunoscute firme de Internet, potrivit unui raport al unei firme britanice de aparare a drepturilor omului.Privacy Internationl(PI), companie care a monitorizat protejarea drepturilor omului inca din primele zile de viata, a catalogat Google drept "ostil la intimitate" intr-un raport proaspat emis.Rivalii Google, Yahoo si AOL au "amenintari la intimitate substantiale" plasandu-se cu un nod deasupra regelui motoarelor de cautare din Mountain View, California.Microsoft sta mai bine, aterizand in categoria "lacune serioase". Nici una dintre cele aproximativ 24 de firme analizate de PI nu a ajuns pe pozitia "prietenosi cu intimitatea"."Suntem constienti ca decizia de a plasa Google la coada clasamentului este foarte probabil sa devina controversata", a spus grupul in raport. "Dar, de-a lungul cercetarii noastre am gasit numeroase deficiente si ostilitate in abordarea Google fata de respectarea intimitatii."Google aduna cantitati enorme de informatie despre utilizatori si se preconizeaza ca va aduna si mai multa dupa achizitionarea firmei Double Click.Cu toate ca si alte firme de Internet impartasesc unele parti negative ale Google, "nici una nu este nici macar aproape de atingerea statutului de amenintare bolnava asupra intimitatii," a mai precizat raportul.Google a declarat pentru France Presse ca este mandru de aria de produse oferite si ca este pentru protejarea intimitatii utilizatorilor."Suntem dezamagaiti de raportul Privacy International care se bazeaza pe numeroase inacuritati si neintelegeri asupra serviciilor noastre," a declarat in scris Nicole Wong, consilier general Google. "Este pacat ca PI a decis sa publice acest raport fara sa ne consulte in privinta paletei noastre de produse. Increderea utilizatorilor este vitala pentru afacerea noastra si Google protejeaza agresiv intimitatea utilizatorilor sai."

Chris Cantell Discusses Online Movie Rental, Blockbuster, SigEx Telecom: SigEx Telecom: Blockbuster scade preturile pentru livrarile prin posta

by Notme dfsfs

Lantul de inchirieri video, Blockbuster a scazut preturile la serviciul de inchiriere filme prin posta de la 1$ pana la 4.99$, incercand sa se alinieze cu preturile joase ale rivalului Netflix.In plus, compania Blockbuster din Dallas a introdus o versiune a popularului sau proiect de livrare doar prin posta care bate pretul proiectului Netflix. Proiectul permite clientilor de livrari prin posta sa aiba pana la 3 filme deodata pentru 16.99$."Daca exista un segment al populatiei careia ii displace sa mearga intr-un magazin, aceasta oferta li s-ar parea atragatoare.. pentru ca este un pret mai mic decat al Netflix, respectiv 17.99$" spune purtatorul de cuvant al Blockbuster, Randy Hargrove.Hargrove spune ca Blockbuster nu si-a micsorat preturile pentru programul Acces Total. Blockbuster. La sfarsitul anului 2006, a lansat programul Blockbuster Total Access, care permite abonatilor online sa returneze filmele inchiriate magazinelor sau prin posta.Proiectul Blockbuster Total Access, care permite clientilor sa poata cumpara cate trei filme deodata, inca este la pretul 17.99$ pe luna.Diferenta dintre proiectul de livrare prin posta, denumit Blockbuster by Mail si proiectul Total Access consta in faptul ca acei consumatori care returneaza filmele lor in magazine nu vor primi inchiererea gratuita in magazin pe care clientii Total Access o obtin. Dar ei vor primi un cupon de bunuri pentru o inchiriere gratuita pe luna."Piata inchirierilor online este in plan sa creasca cu 43% in timpul anului 2007 si prin Blockbuster Total Acces si acum Blockbuster by Mail, intetionam sa capturam partea noastra din acea crestere...", declara Shane Evangelist, vicepresidinte si manager general al Blockbuster Online.Pana la sfarsitul primului trimestru al 2007, programul online al Blockbuster a avut 2.8 milioane de abonati ai programului. Firma din California, Netflix care a fost prima in industrie care a lansat inchirierea DVD-urilor prin posta, a avut 6.8 milioane abonati la programul sau pana la sfarsitul primului trimestru.

Chris Cantell Discusses E-mail, Storage, Data, Yahoo, SigEx Telecom: SigEx Telecom: Serviciile de e-mail tind sa atinga infinitul

by Notme dfsfs
"Spatiu de stocare nelimitat" acest mesaj este afisat utilizatorilor Yahoo Mail in aceasta luna. Este unul din primele cazuri de internet de nemarginire, unde resursele internetului au devenit atat de vaste incat masuratorile normale nu mai conteaza. Cel putin in teorie. In realitate, sunt limite a nelimitarii Yahoo. Totusi, competitorii iau notite. Microsoft, de exemplu, care conduce Hotmail, spune ca isi va muta atentia catre "scoaterea stocarii de pe lista cu probleme". Email-ul este o parte cruciala a strategiilor de afaceri a marilor companii de internet, pentru ca aduce milioane de utilizatori in contact cu marcile si produsele lor. Pentru Yahoo si Microsoft, care ofera un serviciu platit pe an cu 20$ in plus pe langa varianta gratuita, este de asemenea afacerea lor.De fapt, Yahoo plateste cate un cadou de 10$ vanzatorilor pentru fiecare client platitor de email la care ei fac referinta. Google are un alt motiv sa adore email-ul: serveste reclame cu texte tinte bazate pe continutul unul mail citind cuvintele cheie.Cele trei companii toate practica email-ul in propria viziune.Microsoft vorbeste despre cat de aproape se sincronizeaza Hotmail cu programul de mail Outlook, impreuna cu programele populare de editare text Office.Google are o vedere opusa: foloseste Gmail pentru a dezvata oamenii de Office si a-i face sa foloseasca versiunile de internet ale produselor rivalului Google. De exemplu, daca primiti o prezentare PowerPoint pe Gmail, o puteti vizualiza printr-un program incorporat fara a fi nevoie sa aveti Powerpoint pe calculatorul dumneavoastra.Yahoo streseaza retele sociale virtuale cu serviciul sau de email. De exemplu puteti sa trimiteti mail cuiva ori sa chat-uiti direct daca persoanele din lista de contact sunt online.Un director Yahoo a recunoscut ca principalul motiv pentru miscarea catre "fara limite" a fost eliminarea perceptiei ca Gmail ofera mai mult spatiu de stocare, chiar daca Yahoo venise de mult din urma.Yahoo spune ca scoate limitele pentru ca utilizatorii normali sa nu-ti faca griji in legatura cu serviciul. Mai adauga de asemenea ca nu permite oamenilor sa abuzeze de privilegiu, desi este destul de vag ce presupune "abuz".

Chris Cantell Discusses Google, EBay, SigEx Telecom: Cantell TV: Google renunta la a concura cu petrecerea eBay by Notme dfsfs

A avut toate manifestarile unei cascadorii de marketing care a mers prost, versiunea industriei internet a unui teren de joaca plin de ironie si viclenie care s-a transformat repede intr-un retragere tensiunoasa, pana cand zeflemistul Google in acest caz a inchis ochiii.In timp ce vanzatorii cei mai mari de pe eBay s-au pregatit sa se adune in Boston pentru congresul anual si petrecerea de saptamana aceasta sponsorizate de eBay, Google gigantul internet, a decis ca ar fi o idee buna sa invite acei vanzatori la petrecerea sa. Nu orice fel de petrecere, ci una care va promova Google Checkout, un sistem de plata care concureaza cu sistemul patronat de eBay, Paypal si pe care eBay l-a exclus din licitatiile sale."Lasati independenta sa vina" asa suna o invitatie de pe un blog oficial al Google. Si in stilul clasic al Google, au promis "mancare si bautura gratuita, muzica live si chiar si masaje gratuite". Aceasta nu i-a picat prea bine companiei eBay, si miercuri IDG News Service a relatat ca eBay s-a decis sa renunte la reclamele de pe motorul de cautare Google. Ebay este cumparatorul cel mai mare al publicitatii de pe Google, conform Nielsen/NetRatings. Titusi, eBay cheltuieste mai putin de 25 milioane $ decat Google pe un trimestru, spune Jordan Rohan, un analist al RBC Capital Markets."Nu voi comenta despre planurile Google in legatura cu aceea petrecere" spune Hani Durzy, un purtator de cuvant al eBay. El a afirmat ca eBay a rulat un test - ceea ce face frecvent- prin schimbarea dolarilor prin marketing pentru a determina cea mai buna cale de atragere a utilizatorilor".Nu asa a fost interpretata miscarea companiei eBay dupa unii oameni. "Eu nu cred ca cineva mai crede ca putem accepta ca eBay nu permite vanzatorilor sa foloseasca Checkout pentru ca serviciul este neprobat", afirma Scot Wingo, directorul executiv al ChannelAdvisor.com, o companie care ajuta patronii de magazine sa vanda pe mai multe site-uri, inclusiv eBay. Fara a tine seama de aceasta, pana cel tarziu miercuri, Google a anulat invitatiile catre vanzatorii eBay si a anulat petrecerea. Un purtator de cuvant al Google a refuzat sa comenteze.Analistii au spus ca decizia Ebay de a retrage reclamele sale nu va afecta gigantul internet. Cei aproape 25 de milioane $ reprezinta o parte foarte mica din venitul de aproximativ 3.7 miliarde $ pe care Google l-a avut in trimestrul trecut.Va aduce eBay inapoi reclamele sale pe Google? "Nu o avem o data sigura in legatura cu durata acestui experiment" spune Durzy.

Chris Cantell Discusses Apple, IPhone, SigEx Telecom: Noi informatii despre bateria iPhone by Ana Maria Ciobanu

Apple a raspuns criticilor care, inca dinaintea aparitiei unui iPhone in mainile lor, dadeau note foarte mici bateriilor Apple.Intr-o surpriza de ultim moment Apple a publicat noi informatii despre bateria iPhone si despre touchscreen care sunt garantate ca vor asigura placerea potentialilor cumparatori.Intr-un comunicat de presa emis dimineata trecuta, Apple sustine ca iPhone-ul permite 8 ore de vorit. Aceasta informatie este semnificant superioara primelor estimari emise cand iPhone a fost anuntat la Macworld Expo 2007 in ianuarie si anume 5 ore de video/vorbit si 16 ore de playbacj audio.Bateria buna a reperezentat intotdeauna centrul succesului oricarui dispozitiv mobil. Daca un notebook, PDA sau telefon mobil se dovedec sa mearga miraculos "pentru totdeauna"(ca si cum ar fi bagate in priza), cumparatorii navalesc sa le achizitioneze si vanzarile cresc atomic.Comparativ cu utlizatorii business, consumatorii par sa fie putin mai toleranti in ceea ce priveste viata bateriei. Dar pentru utilizatorii business crack-berry nu exista un moment potrivit pentru dispozitivele lor mobile sa ramana fara baterie.Casatoria iPhone -iPod rezultatat cu aparitia unui telefon mobil a trezit interesul multor clienti business care isi doresc sa le aiba pe toate intr-un singur dispozitiv mobil(videoclipuri si playback-ul imaginilor cu copiii lor, o colectie de muzica, e-mail, bineinteles telefonie si o camera de 2 megapixeli), mia ales cu interfata pentru care Apple este legendar.

Chris Cantell Discusses Apple, IPhone, SigEx Telecom: 19 milioane de utilizatori de telefonie mobila isi doresc foarte mult un iPhone

by Notme dfsfs
Apple ar face bine sa deschida inca o fabrica iPhone pentru ca un sondaj recent arata ca 19 milioane de utilizatori de telefonie mobila vor telefonul. "Aceste date confirma faptul ca iPhone a aprins imaginatia consumatorilor si nu e doar un subiect de conversatie intre cunoscatori si impatimiti ai tehnologiei" spune Mark Donovan, vice presedinte senior si analist senir al M:Metrics. Donovan spune ca cei 19 milioane de oameni care si-au exprimat interesul este impresionat dat fiind faptul ca baza instalata a celor mai sofisticate dispozitive rar se intampla sa atinga 1 milion." Potrivit firmei de cercetari din Seattle, M:Metrics, 9% din cei interveviati si-au exprimat foarte puternic interesul pentru iPhone. Si mai surprinzator este faptul ca 67% din acei oameni care apartin de alte retele sunt dispusi sa se mute la AT&T, furnizorul exclusiv al telefoanelor pe cinci ani.Sondajul a fost efectuat in Aprilie si au fost interveviati 11.060 abonati de telefonie mobila din SUA. Oamenii au fost intrebati daca au auzit de iPhone si sa noteze interesul lor de la scazut, neutru la ridicat. 64% din americanii intrebati cunosteau telefonul. M:Metrics afirma ca 47% din abonatii americani de telefonie mobila au un interes scauza pentru iPhone in timp ce 8% au un interes neutru.Firma a descoperit de asemenea ca 30% din abonatii britanici de telefonie mobila au un interes puternic pentru cumpararea telefonului chiar daca Apple nu a anuntat inca o data de lansare in Europa.Telefonul iPhone al Apple va iesi la vanzare pe 29 iunie si va fi disponibil in versiuni de 499$ si 599$. Cumparatorii vor trebui sa incheie un contract cu AT&T pe doi ani."Aceasta este o indicare timpurie ca strategia AT&T de folosire a telefonului pentru a ademenii clienti de de la competitori ar putea avea rezultate" spune Donovan.

Chris Cantell Discusses Second Life, SigEx Telecom, Virtual Worlds: Wimbledon in Second Life by Notme dfsfs

IBM a recreat un "Wimbledon virtual" in Second Life unde utilizatorii vor putea vedea meciuri jucate de avatare folosind date reale din meciurile din campionatul de acest an.Ian Hughes, un priceput al genului de la IBM, spune ca lumile virtuale cum ar fi Second Life permit oamenilor sa "experimenteze Wimbledon-ul printr-o cale mai buna, cu alti oameni"."Cand te pui intr-o lume virtuala care nu este restrictionata de legile gravitatiei sau legile fizicii noi putem face tot felul de lucruri in plus. Putem explora unde putem avea un Wimbledon".Alternativ, utilizatorii de internet se pot abona la videouri live la comanda pana la 9 terenuri inclusiv Terenul Central si Terenul nr.1, la fel ca si stiri din lume, avanpremiere, atractii principale, interviuri si poze din arhiva de pe Wimbledon.org.Turneul din acest an va avea de asemenea o reorganizare de inalta tehnologie prin introducerea DVD-urilor cu meciuri detaliate pentru fiecare joc.DVD-ul va putea reda o anumita parte din fiecare meci din mai multe perspective, de exemplu un moment crucial, permitand jucatorilor o noua cale de analizare a performantei, de a zari slabiciunile si de a-si dezvolta jocul.De asemenea jucatorii pot folosi jocul pentru a dobandi avantaj competitiv impotriva oponentilor, izolandu-si slabiciunile si nascocind cai pentru capitalizare a informatiei."Este interesant echilibrul dintre traditie si schimbare", a afirmat Ian Ritchie, director executiv la All England Lawn Tennis Club."Intr-un mediu cu competitivitate inalte intotdeauna esti dispus sa faci ceva diferit, dar inovarea trebuie sa fie cea care conteaza".

Chris Cantell Discusses Last.fm, SigEx Telecom, Social Networking: Cantell TV: Last.fm achizitionat de CBS

by Ioana Madalina Tantareanu
CBS Corp.(CBS) a achizitionat site-ul Last.fm Ltd pentru suma de 280 milioane d dolari, imprimandu-se si mai mult in industria muzicala, industrie in care era odata unul dintre jucatorii principali. Scopul este sa atraga tineri catre brandul CBS. Last.fm, fondat in 2002, are peste 15 milioane de utilizatori activi in peste 200 de tari si are ca domeiu principal muzica. The WallStreet journal, citand oameni familiari cu situatia, a raportat acum 2 saptamani ca CBS era in tratative cu Last.fm si Facebook Inc. , pentru a da dreptul utilizatorilor sa posteze videoclipuri apartinand CBS pe profilele proprii. "Last.fm este una din cele mai bine inradacinate comunitati online existente si inregistreaza cresteri foarte mari", a declarat Presedintele si Directorul Executiv al CBS Leslie Moonves. A mai adaugat si ca asezarea "demografica" a siteului joaca un rol deosebit in atragerea tinerilor spectatori si ascultatori. Utilizatori isi pot expune oricare din statiile salvate (sau playlisturile), impreuna cu melodiile salvate recent. Partea interesanta este ca playerul Flash poate fi adaugat profilelor chiar dak utilizatorii nu detin un cont Last.fm; aplicatia creeaza un playlist in cunctie de melodiile din sectiunea "favorite music" - ceea ce coboara cu mult barierele de incercare a serviviului. De asemenea utilizatorii pot vedea toate statiile prietenilor pe o singura pagina, pot vedea cine asculta muzica in momentul respectiv si pot avea acces la muzica ascultata cu un singur click. Utilizatorii mai pot sa isi compare gusturilemuzicale cu ale altor utilizatori Facebook prin serviciul Taste-o-meter furnizat de Last.fm. Last.fm detine contracte cu mari marci ca EMI, Warner si The Orchard, si ar fi reprezentat o buna achizitie pentru orice casa de discuri. Last.fm se prezinta intr-o forma mult mai buna decat competitorul sau, Pandora, care este atacata din toate partile de probleme de licente - cu un public dedicat ar putea totusi sa se puna din nou pe picioare.

Operatorii de telefonie mobila sunt din ce in ce mai stresati din cauza companiilor Yahoo si Google care se vor adresa direct utlizatorilor cu servicii de continut mobil, folosind retelele pentru a oferi asa-zise "servicii de super calitate"fara a le da si operatorilor o parte din profitAceste griji au crescut pe masura ce companiile de continut isi inbunatatesc ofertele de mobile si cauta modalitati de a le face accesibile utilizatorilor.Pe de alta parte, David Ko, vice presedinte si general manager la Yahoo's mobile and broadband business in Asia a declarat astazi: " Yahoo vrea sa lucreze cu operatori pentru o experienta optimizata." In timpul unui discurs de astazi la CommunicAsia Summit, Ko a anuntat ca sase operatori asiatici vor folosi motorul de cautare pentru mobil Yahoo, numit oneSearch. Acestia sunt Globe Telecom in Philippine, Idea Cellular- India, LG Telecom- Coreea de Sud, Maxis Communications in Malaysia, PT Telekomunikasi Selular- Indonezia si Taiwan MobileAcesti operatori care reprezinta aproximativ 100 de milioane de abonati au fost de acord sa utilizeze serviciul Yahoo oneSearch in schimbul unei portiuni din venitul acestui serviciu de cautare a declarat Ko, refuzand sa dezvalui detalii exacte asupra incheierii afacerii. Majoritatea veniturilor vor proveni din advertising, a spus acesta.Competita se incinge, Google si-a deschis biroul in Singapore in luna mai anuntand ca planuieste sa deschida un centru R&D si sa isi extinda afacerea in Sud-Estul Asiei.

Chris Cantell Discusses SigEx Telecom, Private Content, MySpace: SigEx Telecom: Site-uri sociale by Ioana Madalina Tantareanu

San Francisco, CA(PRWEB) 13 iunie, 2007 - Firma de masurare a audientei pe web, Hitwise, a publicat recent un raport in care dezvaluie ca doar 16% din vizitatorii sitului Google-YouTube posteaza videoclipuri si doar 2% din utilizatorii Yahoo! Flikr posteaza poze noi. Asta inseamna doar 2 vizitatori din 1000 . Pe de alta parte raportul spune ca vizitele p siturile ce publica date generate de utilizatori (situri stil Web2.0) au crescut cu 668 procente in ultimii 2 ani si reprezinta acum 2% din tot traficul pe internet in SUA.Utilizatorii posteaza date, dar nu dispun de o metoda simpla de a le impartasi. Oamenii care isi creeaza date(poze, filme, etc.),nu dispund de o metoda simpla de a le impartasi cu altii. Quickeo, un proiect din San Francisco, crede ca a gasit raspunsul. Compania permite utilizatorilor sa trimita pe internet orice fel de date intr-un format e-mail numit Quickeomail. Tot ce trebuie sa faca utilizatorul este sa downloadeze un mic software, dupa care poate crea si trimite imediat email-uri multimedia. Toate datele transferate sunt trimise direct in recipentul destinatarului fara ca acesta sa fie nevoit sa downloadeze software-ul. O versiune gratuita a acestui software poate fi gasita la http://www.quickeo.com. Ideea de baza este ca stilul d sharing Web2.0 nu este pentru toata lumea, si multi oameni nefamiliari cu termeni ca wiki, ulpoad, widget, layout, blogging, etc., vor renunta la folosirea lui inca d la prima vedere. YouTube va incurajeaza sa va difuzati in toata lumea, iar Flicker spune ca poate ajuta pe oricine sa arate intregii lumi cele mai bune poze intr-o competitie acerba pentru celebritate pe Web. Aceste mesaje insa nu rezoneaza si printre noi, cei care vrem doar sa impartasim poze si filme cu familia si prietenii si nu vrem sa ne aratam viata personala intregii lumi. Cu alte cuvinte site-urile sociale si cele de video-sharing sunt nemaipomenite, dar nu sunt un inlocuitor pentru site-urile sociale adevarate.

Chris Cantell Discusses SigEx Telecom, Apple, IPhone: Pregatiti-va degetele by Notme dfsfs

iPhone al companiei Apple conduce la un nou tip de dispozitive folosing ecrane sensibile la atingere care reactioneaza la atingerile, fosnetele sau lovituri usoare ale degetelor. Imbunatatirea promite sa fie mai avansata si mai intuitiva decat atingerea aspra a apasarii cu un deget sau a creionului optic cerut de multe dispozitive din ziua de azi. Apple deja a aratat publicului in reclame noutatea atingerii cu degetului inainte de lansarea din 29 iunie a dispozitivului.Alunecati cu degetul usor deasupra ecranului pentru activarea dispozitivul si a meniul principal. Alunecati cu degetul in sus sau in jos pentru a cauta contactele. Apasati pentru a va plimba printre fotografii. Atingeti pentru a mari un site de web.Transportul acestui soi de ecrane avansate sunt planificate a sari de la cateva 200 000 de unitati in 2006 la mai mult de 21 milioane in 2012, impreuna cu multimea de componente ale telefoanelor mobile, potrivit unei previziuni efectuata de iSuppli Corp., o companie de cercetare a pietei."Aceasta noua interfata va fi ca un tsunami, lovind intregul spectru de dispozitive", prezice Francis Lee, directorul executiv al Synaptics Inc., un creator al senzorilor de atingere.Chiar si inainte de febra iPhone care a lovit zona dispozitivelor in ultimele luni, ecranele cu senzori de atingere au devenit populare pentru telefoanele mobile. Aproape 38 milioane de dispozitive, sau aproximativ 4% din telefoanele mobile transportate in 2006, au avut ecrane cu senzori - o calitate care va creste la 90 milioane de unitati in 2012, spune iSuppli.Un tip si mai avansat de ecrane cu senzori de atingere, pe care le au iPhone si LG Prada, folosesc tehnologia "capacitatii proiectata". O plasa de fire de metal intre doua straturi de sticla inregistreaza o atingere atunci cand campul electric este patruns.De aceea periile usoare pt degete vor face totul. Dar senzorii de capacitate nici nu au nevoie de un contact fizic: asemenea ecrane cu senzori de atingere detecteaza deja proximitatea unui deget de la 2 milimetri distanta, spune ColerGrove.

Chris Cantell Discusses Flash Lite, Sigex Telecom: Adobe Flash Lite by Ioana Madalina Tantareanu

Flash Lite is a technology specifically developed for mobile phones and other consumer electronic devices. It is based on Adobe's Flash technology, which makes websites livelier. Contrary to traditional mobile programming languages such as Java ME and C++, Flash Lite application development starts with the content, rather than coding. Although Flash Lite developers do write code to get applications to behave correctly, the graphical approach broadens the potential mobile developer population to include graphical designers and visually oriented people. Adobe is working with global operators, content aggregators and handset manufacturers, including Nokia, NTT DoCoMo and Verizon Wireless to provide a clear path for developers to monetize their Flash Lite applications. For example, the company is helping developers gain Flash Lite content development skills at Adobe and authorized training centers in Europe, the United States and Asia. Similarly, the Adobe Mobile Developer Program offers a range of online technical resources from content development kits and sample codes to early notifications about Adobe mobile products. "By using Flash Lite for our Shockwave Minis mobile game service, we're able to offer a unique selection of Flash Lite games to millions of Verizon Wireless customers in the United States," said Dave Williams, senior vice president and general manager of Shockwave and AddictingGames, a MTV Networks Company. "Flash Lite has allowed us to launch several new games each month because our development time is much faster when compared to developing similar games with other technologies." "As one of the largest Flash based games publishers for global operators like Orange Group, Mobitween was fast to realize the fundamental shift Adobe introduced by bringing Flash to mobile entertainment," said Philippe Chassany CEO of Mobitween. "As our mobile technology of choice, Flash Lite enables us and our partner developers to truly create rich and interactive games and applications at unprecedented speed and reduced cost."

Chris Cantell Discusses SigEx Telecom, IPhone, Apple, Motorola: Google Maps se amesteca cu YouTube by Notme dfsfs

Desi Djii din underground inca fac piese hibride ale Blondie si Iron Maiden, si liceenii nu se satura a mai posta materiale video irelevante pe YouTube ( a se vedea materialul "Ocean's 9/11" in care Clooney si ceilalti sunt trecuti cu vederea..) ideea de "mixaj" a evoluat de la muzica si videoclipuri pentru a deveni un termen foarte popular pentru orice fel de alchimie digitala.Cei de la dudewheresmyusedcar.com au acoperit date despre vehicule care au apartinut eBay, pe Google Maps pentru a putea gasi cu usurinta toate rablele de vanzare din cartier. Site-ul Unfluence (unfluence.net) foloseste informatii dintr-o campanie de baza de date financiara pentru a schematiza internetul pentru donatiile dintre candidati si industrii variate. Daca vizitati whoissick.org, o singura privire asupra hartii arata numerosi oameni din Los Angeles care se plang de probleme cu nasul. Editorul sef de la una din revistele de tehnologie ZDNet, David Berlind, precizeaza ca mixajul acestei epoci datoreaza foarte mult disponibilitatii de unelte de design gratuite de pe internet care cresc tot mai mult ca numar si sunt usor de folosit.Pana recent, daca un profan acea o idee pentru un program de calculator folositor, nu prea avea ce sa faca. "Aveai nevoie de un specialist in domeniu ca sa te ajute", afirma Berlind. Dar liderii industriei cum ar fi Google, eBay, Amazon si Yahoo au lansat seturi de unelte care permit accesul rapid la unele din datele lor cu greu descoperite, "aveai intreprinzatori care dezvoltau aplicatii folositoare in ore".In acelasi timp, centre de socializare virtuala cum ar fi Facebook si noul-venit Ning invita in cercul acestui amalgan de asemenea, sperand ca vor pune sfarsit erei in care pagina de profil era doar o lista cu prieteni si prietenii prietenilor. Spre deosebire de MySpace, care pastreaza o rigoare asupra felurilor de software folosit pe sitelor lor, Facebook ofera toate aplicatiile software oricui le doreste. Pentru intreprinzatori, asta inseamna ca cine va va inventa urmatorul "ucigas" al amalgamului Facebook va primi atentie foarte rapid.S-a intamplat deja acest lucru cu iLike, un mixaj de retea sociala cu muzica care provenea din iTunes, Ticketmaster si YouTube si lasa utilizatorii sa imparta recomandari muzicale, sa coordoneze excursii la concerte si sa gaseasca videoclipuri cu formatiile preferate. iLike a "ars" pe Facebook acum mai putin de o luna si s-a "incins" atat de tare incat era aproape de auto-jertfire.

Chris Cantell Discusses Google, Microsoft, SigEx Telecom: Google inteteste conflictul cu Microsoft by Notme dfsfs

Firma Google, dezamagita de schimbarile pe care Microsoft pe care le-a facut pentru motorul de cautare al Windows Vista ca un raspuns la o plangere de neincredere, insista asupra schimbarilor si omisiunile juridice ale practicilor Microsoft.Intetirea bataliei de neincredere dintre cei doi giganti tehnologici a venit luni cu dosare de la Curtea care supravegheaza instalarea din 2001 a hotarului de intelegerii cu guvern, cu mari portiuni care vor expira in noiembrie.Astazi, judecatorului Curtii Statelor Unite Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, va audia avocatii Microsoft si pe cei ai guvernului pentru stabilirea orarului unei conferinte regulate in Washington.Vor fi multe despre care sa se vorbeasca, chiar si plangerea companiei Google, schimbarile la care Microsoft si guvernul s-au pus de-acord saptamana trecuta, si aceasta ultima plangere Google.La inceputul anului trecut, Google s-a plans Departamentului de Justitie ca optiunea de cautare a Windows Vista - o unealta care gaseste rapid fisierele stocate pe un computer - limiteaza optiunile consumatorilor si violeaza termenii intelegerii din 2001.Microsoft a contestat aceste afirmatii. Dar dupa luni de negocieri cu avocatii guvernului respectand intelegerea, s-a ajuns de-acord saptamana trecuta pentru a se face schimbari mari optiunii de cautare a Windows Vista, schimbari care respecta intelegerea asupra neincrederii.Consilierul general al Microsoft, Brad Smith a spus luni intr-un interviu despre companie ca "deja au depasit neajunsurile si ca au lucrat cu 19 agentii guvernamentale diferite" reclamante in intelegere.Directorul juridic al Google, Davin Drummond, a numit aceste schimbari "un pas pozitiv" dar a afirmat ca nu merg mai departe "pentru a asigura optiuni semnificative" pentru consumatori."In cele din urma, aceste probleme ridica nevoie pentru supravegherea judiciara continua asupra practicilor Microsoft, pentru a se asigura ca interesele consumatorilor sunt respectate" a afirmat Drummond intr-o declaratie pe email.Judecatorul a ezitat sa permita si altor parti ca castige pozitii in acest caz, iar Microsoft a completat o plangere impotriva Google pentru ca aceasta companie sa nu participe la acest caz.

Chris Cantell Discusses Web 2.0, Plaxo, SigEx Telecom: Agenda online by Ioana Madalina Tantareanu

Exista atatea posibilitati de a pastra legatura cu altii in prezent, incat devine greu pentru un utilizator sa pastreze o evidenta a contactelor si intalnirilor. Serviciul "agenda online" oferit de Plaxo incearca sa rezolve aceasta problema cu ultimul software lansat, Plaxo3.0, care functioneaza pe interfata AJAX. Plaxo a fost fondat in 2003 de co-fondatorul Napster, Sean Parker, impreuna cu Minh Nguyen, Todd Masonis si Cameron Ring, si avea rolul de a ajuta utilizatorii sa tina evidenta agendei de e-mail, prin trimiterea automata de e-mailuri catre contactele listate. De atunci serviciul a evoluat fiind sincronizat la un calendar. Plaxo 3.0 este considerat prima agenda si calendar online, capabila sa sincronizeze Microsoft, Google, Yahoo!, AOL, Mac OSX, Thunderbird si telefoanele mobile. Noua versiune gratuita de la Plaxo, valabila inca in varianta beta, este programata sa creeze legaturi intre servicii diferite cu o sincronizare automata, pe mai multe canale. "Dupa un an de munca intensa si reechipare a serviciului, aceasta nu este doar o simpla lansare de produs, ci este o lansare a unui produs Plaxo nou ", a declarat Todd Masonis, VP responsabil cu productia. "Plaxo 3.0 este o plaforma pe care ne putem construi viziunea 'sync and share', oferind clientilor acees la date oricand au nevoie, si permitand aparitia unor metode mult mai accesibile de a pastra legatura cu oamenii importanti din viata lor". Plaxo 3.0 ofera o gama larga de optiuni, dintre care: o noua interfata web, software pentru Mac si Windows plus o varietate de optiuni mobile, ca versiunea WAP 2.0 pentru utilizatorii GSM, care poat efi downloadata la www.plaxo.com. Serviciul valabil pana acum doar in engleza, a fost lansat si in versiune franceza, germana, japoneza, portugheza, chineza si spaniola.
