YouTube and Picasa on your television

Due Credit: DailyBits

Google and Matsushita are working in collaboration to bring the popular services on the web to television. Soon you will be having access to videos from YouTube and images from Picasa accessible on you TV.
Convergence of media from the web with popular devices has been long predicted. But the importance here is for quality. The videos on YouTube are generally of poor quality and beaming them on high definition TVs does not really improve matters a lot.
But the fact is that poor videos are due to bandwidth issues and that is scaling up so in course of time these issues will sort out and lets not forget that the TV audience is another big pool of viewers to sell ads to.

Porting data across the web

Due Credit: SearchEngine-Weblog

With a number of social networking and web applications sprucing up online, the issue of data portability is definitely a very relevant issue. The contention centers around how much ownership right does the user have to his/her data on a network.
Recently there was the spat between Facebook and Plaxo over the porting of contact information from one site to the other.
The establishment of the Data Portabilty Workgroup to sort out the issues around data portability on the Web is a welcome move for all online users

Search Engine : Otavo

Due Credit: Search Engine Journal

Intention is a very fuzzy word. To say that a machine can guess the intention of the searcher is perhaps a prized product of Artificial Intelligence. Before you go about wondering if AI has indeed reached these ends, refrain.

In this case, the Otavo search engine makes a quest out of the search queries that a user searches on. Adding another socializing angle to search, the engine makes sharing and tracking of search results possible so that in course of time the results refined by a set of users makes for lot more relevance

Visual search on Like.com

Due Credit: SearchEngineJournal

If searching for keywords is based on the fact that the keywords in a text are indexed then it only follows logically that searching for an image should also take into consideration the characteristics in the image.

Unfortunately the world of image search is not so simple. Most of the image search engines today rely on meta-data for image files i.e. on the information that the person uploading the image mentions in the image name, description, tags etc. It does make sense to have that approach since why would you ever want to fill in wrong information for something you want others to find? But it is a fact that when left to the discretion of the user, exact data or perfect classifications are never undertaken sincerely
