ArticleAll That Other Video on the Net published on December 17, 2008 In our November newsletter, Video Just Got Easier, I wrote about how businesses can easily use existing video technology online. A portion of the article was a broader look at how video technology has affected the internet at large, as well as the general viewing habits of consumers. But one aspect that I didnt really mention was how video is popping up all over the place, from various sources that are not necessarily entertainment or business-oriented. What amazes me is how easy it has become to communicate using video, so much so that I find myself encountering and using video every day now without even thinking about it. This was definitely not the case even just a year ago! Read Now About
ArticleWeb Design 101: Jagged Text published on December 16, 2008Question: Why does the text on my site look rough or jagged? Answer: Any editable text on a web page (you can highlight it with your cursor) is HTML text. HTML text is generated by your web browser and displayed with uniformly-colored pixels, so any line or edge that is not 90 degrees is built with a stair-step pattern or jagged edge (as if it had been built with Legos)...

ArticleNew Content for New Formats published on December 9, 2008Virginia Heffernan has a thoughtful column in the New York Times Magazine about how we need to learn how to properly adapt content to new forms of distribution. Heres a quote to that point: People who work in traditional media and entertainment ought either to concentrate on the antiquarian quality of their work, cultivating the exclusive audience of TV viewers or magazine readers that might pay for craftsmanship. Or they should imagine that they are 19 again: spending a day on Twitter or following a recipe from a Mark Bittman video played on a refrigerator that automatically senses what ingredients are missing and texts an order to the grocery store (it will soon exist!). Then they should think about what content suits these new modes of distribution and could evolve in tandem with them. For old-media types, mental flexibility could be the No. 1 happiness secret we have been missing. Read Now About
