This week, we delivered a video wall with the capability of being installed and distributed by users on social networks and blogs for the Canadian Idol Last Chance Online Auditions website! Posting videos in Facebook or MySpace is no big deal, but when sharing is combined with the Mediafactory, our clients can now effectively program users homepages. CTV uses a “saved search” collection that is constantly updated with the latest submission to the website. This content is updated in real time, and all deployed widgets reflect the contents of the collection. At any time, CTV can change the content of an installed video wall.
With the addition of a call-to-action in the widget, you can now extend your brand and drive traffic back to the mothership. Did we mention we record all stats including views, geo and sources? Nice!

I am putting together a series of blog posts that originally started as essays I had written while at university from 2004 to 2006. One paper I wrote in 2005 was:
“The Future of Music Business, Law and Technology: A Critical Analysis of
Related Articles on the Topic of Digital Music.”
Quite a mouthful.
The related articles mentioned in the title were all written within a short time frame (2000, 2004 and 2005), yet also within three significantly different climates. The first was written before the explosion of Napster, the second at the height of Napster Mania, and the third just as the iTunes Music Store was gaining momentum.
I have decided to revisit the topics discussed in these papers and to reflect on the last several years. I wrote the first version of this paper before many had heard of Facebook, MySpace or YouTube, and well before they sold for billions (Facebook pending…). New bits are in bold. Read more…
