Just a few months ago, when Google launched its "Lively" 3D chat offering, I a href="http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20080708/1747161625.shtml"questioned Google's strategy/a, as it didn't seem to offer anything different or compelling. Some people here a href="http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20080708/1819441626.shtml"disagreed/a, and believed Google would be able to turn the service into something compelling, but that appears not to be. Since the launch, to be honest, I can't recall ever hearing about Lively again -- and had pretty much forgotten it existed. And, indeed, less than six months after launching it, a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/11/lively-no-more.html" target="_new"Google has killed off Lively/a, admitting that the experiment was something of a failure. br /br / There seems to be a growing pattern in figuring out which Google projects are a success and which will fail. When it merely copies something others are doing, as with Lively, it tends not to do very well. When it ichanges the game/i, as it did originally with things like Google Maps (the first real AJAXy mapping solution) and Gmail (huge storage and AJAXy front end), then it gets usage. Google's success has always been in reimagining products that people seem to believe are mature, and completely reshaping how people think about those products. That was true with maps (which had been dominated by MapQuest and Yahoo Maps for years) and email... and it was even true in search. People thought the search market was too crowded when Google showed up, but its solution was so different and so much more compelling it got attention. Lively, on the other hand, was a pure me-too play. There are half-a-dozen other offerings that effectively do the same thing. Google didn't give anyone a real ireason/i to use Lively... and, so it shouldn't be too surprising that Lively is now dead.br /br /a href="http://techdirt.com/articles/20081119/2246282892.shtml"Permalink/a | a href="http://techdirt.com/articles/20081119/2246282892.shtml#comments"Comments/a | a href="http://techdirt.com/article.php?sid=20081119/2246282892op=sharethis"Email This Story/abr / br style="clear: both;"/ a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?s=6515b9f52a168e80ed93f13eced04ecap=1"img alt="" style="border: 0;" border="0" src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?s=6515b9f52a168e80ed93f13eced04ecap=1"//a img src="http://www.pheedo.com/feeds/tracker.php?i=6515b9f52a168e80ed93f13eced04eca" style="display: none;" border="0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/div class="feedflare" a href="http://feeds.techdirt.com/~f/techdirt/feed?a=J5Xcn"img src="http://feeds.techdirt.com/~f/techdirt/feed?i=J5Xcn" border="0"/img/a /divimg src="http://feeds.techdirt.com/~r/techdirt/feed/~4/459434043" height="1" width="1"/

BlackBerry Storm review  —  By now most of us have heard this story in one fashion or another: when Steve Jobs and Apple were in the planning stages of the iPhone, the first carrier they brought the device to was America's largest network, Verizon.  Even if you haven't heard how the tale ends …

Hi Guys,
One of our clients this year wants an ecard, we've done the artwork but now we're stumped.
How do I get the Artwork to show up in an email like an ecard?
I know I could just drag into mail but will this show up in all email clients?
Mainly going to be web based and outlook.

Cheers

Hi,

In my application I'm moving my image by calling Touches Moved method in UIView.
The image is moving but not along withthe finger.
One more problem is the image is reflecting as two while its moving.

Google vient de dévoiler un outil expérimental, baptisé Google Flu Trends, capable de tracer l’intensité et l’étendu des fluctuations de la grippe à travers les Etats-Unis, simplement en observant les requêtes sur ce sujet des utilisateurs de son moteur de recherche. Google Flu Trends s’appuie sur un constat simple : avant d’aller chez le docteur, nombre d’internautes ont tendance à chercher des informations sur les symptômes qu’ils ressentent. L’outil de Google se contente d’agréger les données relatives à la grippe tapées par les internautes dans son moteur et à les géolocaliser comme il le propose sur Google Insight, le service d’analyse des requêtes des internautes. Le Center for Disease Control (Centre de Contrôle des maladies) américain produit également ce type d’information, mais, le temps qu’il récupère l’information sur les poussées de la grippe provenant des médecins et hôpitaux, les cartes sont disponibles une dizaine de jours plus tard. “Nous avons trouvé qu’il y avait une grande proximité entre la fréquence de ces requêtes et le nombre de personnes qui font l’expérience des symptômes de la grippe chaque semaine”, expliquent Jeremy Ginsbert et Matt Mohebii de Google, les créateurs du modèle de prédiction temps réel. “La grippe a une très courte période d’incubation”, explique Lyn Finelli, responsable de la surveillance de la grippe au CDC, d’où le besoin de prévenir très tôt les poussées de la maladie.

D’autres systèmes existent encore comme HealthMap, qui permet de cartographier des informations de santé pour montrer comment se répandent des maladies. L’idée d’exploiter l’intelligence des traces que les gens laissent derrière eux n’est pas nouveau, rappelle le chercheur du MIT Nathan Eagle à la Technology Review, qui a étudié comment se une maladie se répand dans la population en suivant des étudiants par GPS. Pour Nathan Eagle, l’exemple montre bien comment nos données seront exploitées à l’avenir. “Au bout du compte, ce type de données donne une vision de la vie au 21e siècle. Nous pouvons les ignorer ou prétendre qu’elles n’existent pas, ou nous pouvons les utiliser, sans compromettre le respect de la vie privée, d’une manière qui puisse aider les gens”

Bien sûr, le système est encore à améliorer, notamment parce qu’il est possible qu’il soit sensible aux rumeurs : une rumeur de grippe peut également faire monter les requêtes sur Google, sans que la grippe ne soit là, tout comme la requête sur le terme “Flu” lié à un autre contexte - comme l’annonce de ce nouveau service - à certainement dû dérégler un instant les compteurs.

Mais il n’y a pas que la grippe dont on peut prédire l’impact en regardant le comportement des internautes. Bernardo Huberman, directeur du Laboratoire de calcul social d’HP a publié une intéressante étude rapporte CNET intitulée “Prévoir la popularité du contenu en ligne” (.pdf). Pour Bernardo Huberman, la popularité d’un contenu mis sur l’internet n’a rien d’aléatoire et peut-être prédit avec une certaine précision dès sa mise en ligne, explique l’Atelier. Selon la modélisation mise en place par l’équipe de Bernado Huberman, on peut déterminer dès les deux premières heures de sa publication sur Digg ou dès les premiers jours de publication sur Youtube, la popularité que devrait connaître un article ou une vidéo.
