Interesting times for Video on the Web
,----[ Quote ]
| If I told you that Google had helped fund
| an ARM code optimised version of the Theora
| video codec, most peopleâs reaction would
| be immediately to skip forward to the next
| blog entry. Audio and video codecs are the
| classic example of things that no one cares
| about, until they donât work.
|
| Ask most computer users what their
| preferred video codec is and theyâll look
| at you as if you asked what sort of motor
| theyâd prefer in their washing machine. âWe
| just want it to work!â they say. In this
| regard, itâs exactly the same for content
| creators and publishers. Every visitor to a
| website that canât view a video is one set
| of eyeballs less for a message to get
| through to. It doesnât matter how clever
| the advertising is, how much time is spent
| honing the message or how many clever viral
| tricks are deployed to attract surfers to
| the site, the moment the page opens up with
| a big blank box where the content should
| be, all that has been in vain.

|
| Fortunately, there is some good news in the
| form of HTML 5. This new version of HTML
| (the basic language used to write webpages)
| introduces a video element.

Apple Slaps Developers In The Face

| The fact that Apple would make such a
| hostile and despicable move like this
| clearly shows the difference between our
| two companies.

| In many ways, HTML5 is an attempt to bring
| order to many of the features and behaviors
| that have become the norm in recent years.
| This section highlights some of the more

FSFE and FFII to Radio Station Winners: "rOGG on"
,----[ Quote ]
| Radio Free Deutschland: For Document Freedom
| Day, March 31 2010, a couple of European radio
| stations were granted awards for using open
| standards.
|
| The radio stations Deutschlandradio and Radio
| Orange received the awards from the Free
| Software Foundation Europe and Foundation for
| a Free Information Infrastructure because they
| transmitted over the Internet in the Ogg
| Vorbis media container format. The free Radio
| Orange 94.0 in Vienna and dradio.de
| (Deutschlandfunk in Cologne and
| Deutschlandradio Kultur in Berlin) were
| honored with the awards (and a cake) the
| afternoon of March 31 under the slogan "rOGG
| on!" (see Gallery).
