bufale, pesci, asini...
Fine, davvero fine il pesce d'aprile di Podcasting News:
Radio Broadcasting Association Buys Podcasting - April 01, 2005 - In a surprise move, the Broadcasting Organization of the Greater United States has purchased the rights to the technology underlying podcasting for an undisclosed sum. As part of the deal, two of the pioneers of podcasting, Dave Winter & Alan Curry, have agreed to join the organization with the title of podcasting evangelists.
"It's all about respect," said Winter in a statement. "The Organization was prepared to offer me a lot of respect, and I couldn't really refuse the offer."
Curry noted "Podcasting plus commercial radio - it's the ultimate mashup! This deal is going to provide us with enough capital that we can fix a lot of the problems that have emerged in the podcasting space."
Top of Curry's list is confusion over licensing. "We're working with the RIAA and Apple to come up with a DRM-enabled podcasting solution. We've got some top artists on board, so be prepared for an explosion of great podcasts!"
The Broadcasting Organization's move comes as podcasting has emerged as an viable alternative to traditional radio. By purchasing the rights to podcasting, traditional broadcasters can have a turnkey solution for putting broadcast content onto portable media players.
Ma non era male neppure la storia che la Bbc aveva chiesto un'intervista a Bob Marley. la Repubblica ci ha creduto. E in effetti, ci hanno creduto in molti, da Yahoo! al Sunday Times (quello dell'Australia), da DigitalSpy a BoingBoing. La stessa Bbc ha chiesto scusa per la gaffe. Resta dunque il mistero: di che animale si tratta? Pesce, bufala, asino...
