How Facebook Was Founded (ou les méthodes pas très clean de Marck Zuckerberg )

on at least one occasion in 2004, Mark used private login data taken from Facebook's servers to break into Facebook members' private email accounts and read their emails--at best, a gross misuse of private information. Lastly, it suggests that Mark hacked into the competing company's systems and changed some user information with the aim of making the site less useful. | source : www.businessinsider.com

Le Huffington Post revendique 40 millions de visiteurs uniques par mois

That’s per Huffpo’s own numbers, served up by Google Analytics (GOOG). And as usual, outside auditors provide a different number. ComScore’s (SCOR) January numbers put the site at 26.4 million unique visitors (see breakdown at bottom of this post).

But no matter how you count it, there’s now a really, really big audience for a site the smart set derided as a vanity project for Arianna Huffington when it launched in 2005. | source : mediamemo.allthingsd.com

With a Little Help: The Price Is Right - Publishers Weekly

Demand elasticity is the straightforward idea that new customers will come into your shop if you lower prices. The publishing industry already practices some demand elasticity: new hardcovers, for example, are priced at $27, not $75, because the higher margin at $75 would not make up for the lost sales from readers unwilling to pay the higher price. Many Internet companies made their fortunes on demand elasticity. Google, for example, bet that charging less for ads (and using clever automation to make money even on extremely cheap ads) would attract so many new advertisers that they would realize a substantial profit. | source : mobile.publishersweekly.com

A framework for social learning in the enterprise

Why is social learning important for today’s enterprise? From replaceable human resources to dynamic social groups. A collective, social learning approach, on the other hand, takes the perspective that learning and work happen as groups and how the group is connected (the network) is more important than any individual node within it. | source : www.jarche.com

Social Media = Organizational Change ! (via @pyplatini )

When launching a social media strategy it is so important that companies take a hard look at what the social footprint will do to their operations.  Are you ready and prepared to let customers roam, metaphorically, through your building and make contributions and suggestions? Are you prepared to become responsive to customers at the times they want to engage?  If your company's customer care processes are not up to snuff then you are not ready for a social media strategy just yet.  You need to clean up your house before company comes to visit.  If you are not skilled at taking input from customers then social media will only illuminate your flaws -shining a spotlight on them in a public way. | source : www.socialmediatoday.com

MediaShift Idea Lab . 'Anarconomy' and the News Industry | PBS

If we were to call journalism an open source public good, that brings us to the discussion about whether utopia, anarconomy, or monopoly regulation are better paths to manage journalism in the public interest. Europe is not shy of this conversation with its passion for state-owned news programming in the public interest, but it is anathema to much of the U.S. culture of news as being fiercely independent. | source : www.pbs.org
