  Behavioural ad targeting outfit retains user privacy - Brand Republic News - Brand Republic 

  http://www.brandrepublic.com/MediaPmBulletin/News/786202/Behavioural-ad-targeting-outfit-retains-user-privacy/?DCMP=EMC-Media PM Bulletin

  Open Internet Exchange, developed by digital technology company Phorm, is partnering with BT, The Carphone Warehouse’s TalkTalk and Virgin Media, which combined represents 70% of UK consumer broadband ... subscribers. The company, headed in the UK by Drayton, former managing director of Advertising.com and the Telegraph Media Group, claims to be unique because it maintains consumers’ privacy. Instead of recording their IP address, every user is assigned an identification number, with user history erased as soon as they have been served a relevant advertiser. Consequently, Open Internet Exchange hopes to appeal to advertisers, some of whom have been wary of using behavioural ad targeting services amid concerns over users’ privacy and incorrect ad placement. Kent Ertugrul, chairman and worldwide chief executive of Phorm, said: “As a user visits a relevant site the system simultaneously deletes where they have been before and all the reasons that led to that match.” Ertugrul added that, becau   [More...] [Less...]

  Looking to offer a more collaborative experience for its customers, Vivisimo on Oct. 8 said it will soon add social tagging, bookmarking and networking capabilities to its enterprise search platform. Vivisimo's ... Velocity 6.0 enterprise search platform is designed to help users mine the collective insight of their colleagues to get better search results. For example, a new social tagging feature lets user rate, vote or add tags or comments to search results or documents, said Vivisimo Chief Scientist Jerome Pesenti. Users may rate a search result on a numerical scale and comment on whether they found the result useful or not, tagging documents with keywords. Results that are voted on more will have their relevance raised, and users may see what has been voted on in as recently as the last 5 minutes. Moreover, users may annotate existing results with their own thoughts and commentary. So, instead of sending an e-mail with a file attachment to colleagues with commentary about a document, u   [More...] [Less...]

  Google Top Worldwide Search Engine; Baidu Beats Microsoft 

  http://searchengineland.com/071010-192830.php

  | Main | Oct. 10, 2007 at 7:28pm Eastern by Danny Sullivan comScore has released new figures looking at the most popular search engines worldwide. Google tops the list, with nearly five times as many searches ... as nearest competitor Yahoo. But the worldwide list does focus attention on some non-US based search players like Baidu and NHN, which owns Korea's Naver. It also shows Asia-Pacific as the region with the most searchers and searches happening. Here's the list, with figures rounded, showing the number of searches that happened in August 2007 on each search network: Google Sites: 37.1 billion (5 billion at YouTube) Yahoo Sites: 8.5 billion Baidu.com: 3.3 billion Microsoft Sites: 2.2 billion NHN Corporation: 2.0 billion eBay:1.3 billion Time Warner Network [AOL]: 1.2 billion Ask Network: 743 million Fox Interactive Media: 683 million Lycos, Inc: 441 million I find it odd that eBay is included in the list.

  The Social Bookmarking Faceoff 

  http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/social_bookmarking_faceoff.php

  Written by Alex Iskold and edited by Richard MacManus. The social bookmarking market is in a steady state with two dominant players - del.icio.us and StumbleUpon . The rest of the pack, including Yahoo ... MyWeb, appears to be substantially behind. Will they catch up? In this post we attempt to answer that question. We also take a look at how social bookmarking has evolved since del.icio.us. (even del.icio.us itself has evolved a lot!). We compare the features and approaches of the different companies, to see which has gained popularity and what has become the norm in this space. A short history of social bookmarking The current social web era started with del.icio.us and the advent of social bookmarking. The simple concept of a tag has turned our interactions with the web upside down. The idea of being able to store your bookmarks online, share them with everyone and see what others have bookmarked - triggered the sequence of events that resulted in today's rich and social web ecosyst   [More...] [Less...]

  Social Bookmarking Tools - A General Review 

  http://www.dlib.org/dlib/april05/hammond/04hammond.html

  Introduction Because, to paraphrase a pop music lyric from a certain rock and roll band of yesterday, " the Web is old, the Web is new, the Web is all, the Web is you ", it seems like we might have to ... face up to some of these stark realities [ n1 ]. With the introduction of new social software applications such as blogs, wikis, newsfeeds, social networks, and bookmarking tools (the subject of this paper), the claim that Shelley Powers makes in a Burningbird blog entry [ 1 ] seems apposite: " This is the user's web now, which means it's my web and I can make the rules. " Reinvention is revolution it brings us always back to beginnings. We are here going to remind you of hyperlinks in all their glory, sell you on the idea of bookmarking hyperlinks, point you at other folks who are doing the same, and tell you why this is a good thing. Just as long as those hyperlinks (or let's call them plain old links) are managed, tagged, commented upon, and published onto the Web, they represent a   [More...] [Less...]

  Vivisimo, a provider of search software and expertise, announced a new patent-pending technology--remix clustering--designed to help users find new topics and gain insights related to their search queries. ... Vivisimo's standard clustering organizes search results into topical folders on the fly, without any pre-processing of source documents. Clustering gives a quick overview of the main topics, enables easy access to valuable but low-ranked search results, and groups together related documents for joint consideration. Vivisimo's Remix clustering works like this: The user first sees clustered results in the usual style. Then, a single click on Remix reveals submerged or secondary topics that were not generated in the initial clustering. It works by feedback: cluster the same search results again, but explicitly ignore the topics that the user already saw. ( www.vivisimo.com )   [More...] [Less...]

  Social bookmarking - Wikipedia 

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_bookmarking

  [ edit ] Introduction On a social bookmarking system or network, users store lists of Internet resources that they find useful. These lists can be accessible to the public by users of a specific network ... or website. Other users with similar interests can view the links by topic, category, tags, or even randomly. Other than web page bookmarks, services specialized to a specific subject or format — feeds, books, videos, shopping items, map locations, wineries, etc. — can be found. [ edit ] History The concept of shared online bookmarks dates back to April 1996 with the launch of itList.com. Within the next three years online bookmark services became competitive, with venture-backed companies like Backflip , Blink, [ citation needed ] Clip2 , Hotlinks , Quiver , and others entering the market. Lacking viable models for making money, most of this early generation of social bookmarking companies failed as the dot-com bubble burst. In 2005 and 2006, social bookmarking sites, such as del.i   [More...] [Less...]
