Twitter is going “Places” liveTue, 15/06/2010 - 22:52. Sector newsTwitter finally went live and global with “Twitter Places”, which was first announced in April. Users can go to Twitter's site or use the app on a mobile phone to tag a location along with a tweet. One can either pick from an existing location, or enter a new one. Then anyone who reads that tweet can click on that location to see recent tweets also linked to that location. Twitter is pegging the release to the World Cup: see who else is at the stadium, or, more realistically, at a particular sports bar or venue. How social is social?Mon, 14/06/2010 - 21:50. Sector newsIn an opinion piece, Charles M. Blow of the New York Times cites a report by the Pew Research Center, which found that only 43 percent of Americans know all or most of their neighbours by name. Twenty-nine percent know only some, and 28 percent know none. Yet it is not unusual to have thousands of “friends” and “followers” on the social-networking sites in which they vigorously participate. Mr. Blow thinks that social networks are rewiring our relationships and that our keyboard communities are affecting the attachments in our actual ones. Wie sozial ist “social”?Mon, 14/06/2010 - 21:19. Branchen NachrichtenIn einer Betrachtung von Charles M. Blow in der New Your Times zitiert er einen Bericht des Pew Research Centres der fand, dass nur 43 % der Amerikaner die Namen aller oder der meisten ihrer Nachbarn kennen. 29% kannten einige und 28% keine der Namen. Gleichzeitig ist es nicht ungewöhnlich, tausende von “Freunden” und “Anhänger” in den Sozialen Netzwerken zu haben, die die meisten benutzen. Mr. Blow glaubt, dass soziale Netzwerke unsere zwischenmenschlichen Beziehungen verändern und dass unsere Computer-Verhältnisse den Zusammenhalt in unseren wirklichen Verhältnissen schwächen. Ein weiterer Pew Centre Bericht im November fand, dass “Benutzer von sozialen Netzwerken 26% weniger bereit sind, Nachbarn als eine Quelle von Freundschaften zu nutzen und dass College-Studenten 40 % weniger Mitgefühl haben als ihre Gegenstücke vor 20 oder 30 Jahren”. Ein Faktor könnten hier soziale Netzwerke sein.

UK’s O2 ends “all you can eat” mobile data consumptionFri, 11/06/2010 - 22:59. NewsBritish mobile operator O2, owned by Spains Telefónica, is ending the so called “all-you-can-eat” data plans, which allow smartphone customers to browse the web as much as they want for a fixed monthly fee. Instead, customers will pay according to how much data they consume each month. Rival UK mobile operators Orange and T-Mobile, which have combined to form the largest British operator, are preparing to follow O2’s move, as is Hutchison Whampoa’s 3UK and Vodafone has also scrapped or modified unlimited data plans. Last week, AT&T in the US ended unlimited data plans. (Source: Financial Times) O2 in Großbritannien beendet unbeschränkten DatenverbraucFri, 11/06/2010 - 12:18.

Sector newsGoogle’s problems with collecting illegal data while taking pictures for its “street view” service are not going away. European and especially German data protection authorities had asked Google to hand over the hard disks containing this information and on June 2, we reported that Google had missed the deadline for this. That data still has not been handed over and now Privacy International (PI) said that Google is "almost certain" to face prosecution for collecting such data from unsecured wi-fi networks. Googl riskiert StrafverfolgungThu, 10/06/2010 - 10:52. Branchen NachrichtenGoogles Probleme mit der illegalen Sammlung von Daten während der Aufnahmen für Street View gehen weiter. Europäische und besonders deutsche Datenschutzbehörden verlangten von Google die Herausgabe der Daten bis zum 2. Juni, was Google nicht tat. Jetzt sagt „Privacy International“, dass Google ziemlich sicher mit einer Strafverfolgung rechnen kann. Google hat eine unabhängige Untersuchung der Daten veröffentlicht und sagte, dass diese unbeabsichtigt aufgenommen wurden, aber Privacy International behauptet, dass die Untersuchung „kriminelle Absichten“ bestätigt.
