For newsrooms, the utility of APIs goes beyond creating Web apps. Making data available via APIs is a little like giving the newsroom the ability to ask and answer questions without having to tie down a CAR person for long periods of time. APIs can provide data in whatever format you choose, which means that a wider range of people can take advantage, from graphic artists used to working with XML to reporters comfortable with CSV files. When your data is more accessible and flexible, the possibilities for doing things with it expands. | source : blog.thescoop.org
France has no equivalent to the 14th Amendment, but the French president, Nicolas Sarkozy, who likes to be known as Sarko the American, also is fanning dangerous anti-immigrant passions for short-term political gain. | source : www.nytimes.com

C’est le New York Times qui a mis le feu aux poudres. Hier, le journal annonçait que l’opérateur américain Verizon et le géant Google « étaient proches d’un accord qui pourrait permettre à Verizon d’accélérer l’accès des utilisateurs à certains contenus si leurs créateurs étaient prêts à payer pour ce privilège ». Un accord qui, s’il se concrétisait, représenterait une atteinte flagrante à la neutralité des réseaux, dans la mesure où certains sites bénéficieraient alors de passe-droits en échange de monnaie sonnante et trébuchante reversée aux opérateurs... | source : www.ecrans.fr

Again, the obvious caveat here is that none of the above screenshots tell us where the paper will end up when it rolls out its paywall. But they do show us that paper is thinking hard about giving home delivery subscribers — who are incredibly valuable — a reason to remain home delivery subscribers. And that the paper is considering a model in which access to the site via iPad and other mobile devices is a privilege you have to pay for — consistent with the approach we’ve seen from Hulu, Time Warner’s Time Inc (TWX) and other big media companies. | source : mediamemo.allthingsd.com
While the fact that Pulse comes pre-populated with the Times’ RSS feed (arguably) makes a difference to the legal analysis, it does little to change people’s gut reaction. As many commentators have noted, the Internet is built around the concept of linking to and reusing content that appears elsewhere. As TechCrunch notes, "[Pulse is] using the NY Times official RSS feed, because the NY Times put it out there. For the NY Times to then complain about it doing so is bizarre." This is the same argument that supporters of Google News and other news aggregators use: if you don’t want it to be copied, don’t put it on the Internet. And if you put it on the Internet, expect it to be copied (unless you hide it behind a paywall). | source : www.niemanlab.org
“The proposal was to create a newsroom: a group of developers-slash-journalists, or journalists-slash-developers, who would work on long-term, medium-term, short-term journalism—everything from elections to NFL penalties to kind of the stuff you see in the Word Train.” This team would “cut across all the desks,” providing a corrective to the maddening old system, in which each innovation required months for permissions and design. The new system elevated coders into full-fledged members of the Times—deputized to collaborate with reporters and editors, not merely to serve their needs. | source : nymag.com
