Demasiado divertido, y en realidad demasiado serio para dejarlo pasar. Noticias desde el futuro de las bitácoras, cuando llevar una sea más arriesgado que hoy: Don’t Blog (vía eCuaderno):
Microsoft gains 87% share of Enterprise Blogging Market. What happens if Microsoft provides fear, uncertainty, and doubt long enough to damage competitors? What if it sells well enough to swallow up entire blogging budgets? What if it executes so poorly that users never buy-in and management writes off the whole blogging thing? Not like this has happened before.
En realidad, algunas de las noticias que pone podrían parecer exageradas. Sin embargo, que me dicen de esta otra, aparentemente real: Why Europe still doesn’t get the Internet:
The all-but-final proposal draft says that Internet news organizations, individual Web sites, moderated mailing lists and even Web logs (or «blogs»), must offer a «right of reply» to those who have been criticized by a person or organization.
With clinical precision, the council’s bureaucracy had decided exactly what would be required. Some excerpts from its proposal:
? «The reply should be made publicly available in a prominent place for a period of time (that) is at least equal to the period of time during which the contested information was publicly available, but, in any case, no less than for 24 hours.»
? Hyperlinking to a reply is acceptable. «It may be considered sufficient to publish (the reply) or make available a link to it» from the spot of the original mention.
? «So long as the contested information is available online, the reply should be attached to it, for example through a clearly visible link.»
? Long replies are fine. «There should be flexibility regarding the length of the reply, since there are (fewer) capacity limits for content than (there are) in off-line media.»
¿Afectará a la forma en que creamos sitios web en Europa imponiendo una autocensura que impedirá el desarrollo democrático? ¿O seguiremos como hasta ahora?
