Google buys You Tube
Today Google acquired You Tube. Should be very interesting in what features are added. Even more interesting will be the DMCA lawsuits that are sure to come for potential copyright infringement. Different than Napster - You Tube is actually hosting the videos - many of which contain IP rights of others.
For example, the video below contains the IP rights of several parties. Fair Use? You be the judge.

HD Beat offers great HDTV content
One of the weblogs I read daily in addition to Engadget is HD Beat. Here is a recent post from their blog:
HDTV Listings for January 14, 2006:
Filed under: Programming, ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, ESPN-HD, TNT-HD, Discovery-HD
What we're watching: Two of the best AFC teams in the NFL take to the 1080i gridiron on CBS tonight. The Patriots step up to Mile-High Stadium to tackle the Broncos at 8 p.m. and this game could go either way. If for any reason the game gets one-sided (which I doubt), I'll be jacking in to "The Matrix" on TNT-HD at 10:30 p.m. for a 1080i showing. The Oracle already told me who wins the football game anyway...
Here are some other HDTV programs showing on selected networks today. All times are Eastern and reruns are in italics:
ABC (720p): Figure Skating: U.S. Championships (8 p.m.)
CBS (1080i): NFL Playoffs: Patriots at Broncos (8 p.m.)
NBC (1080i): Crossing Jordan (8 p.m.), Medium (9 p.m.), Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (10 p.m.), Saturday Night Live with host: Scarlett Johansson (11:30 p.m.)

Purdue quarterback Kirsch declares for NFL draft:
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- Purdue quarterback Brandon Kirsch will forgo his final season of eligibility and enter the NFL draft.

Last season, Kirsch started six times and played in eight games, completing 59.1 percent of his...

OSI Statement on License Proliferation
OSI Statement on License Proliferation:
The OSI has issued a statement on license proliferation.
"OSI's approach on the development and distribution problems involved building as many different bridges as possible between developers and the corporate world. In doing this, we accepted a proliferation of new licenses. This is a problem in that although physical bridges between communities don't interfere with each other, licenses do. Interference between different open-source licenses is now perceived as a sufficiently serious problem that OSI has become as a victim of its own earlier success."

Nascar to get Sirius
NASCAR SELECTS SIRIUS AS NEW HOME ON SATELLITE RADIO
Live Races Move to SIRIUS Starting in 2007
Five Year Broadcast and Marketing Agreement Includes 24/7 NASCAR Channel
NEW YORK and DAYTONA BEACH, FL - February 22, 2005 - SIRIUS Satellite Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI) today announced an agreement to give SIRIUS North American satellite radio rights to broadcast NASCAR racing and events that will bring unprecedented programming and marketing opportunities to NASCAR fans. Beginning in 2007, SIRIUS will broadcast all NASCAR Nextel Cup Series, NASCAR Busch Series and NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series races live on a specially created, 24/7 NASCAR channel, and SIRIUS will be the only place on satellite radio to listen to NASCAR.
As part of the agreement, SIRIUS will become the Official Satellite Radio Partner of NASCAR, with exclusive trademark and marketing rights, and the right to sell all advertising time on its NASCAR channel and during the race broadcasts. SIRIUS will pay NASCAR rights fees totaling $107.5 million over the term of the agreement, with the highest payments in the final years of the term.
“We’re thrilled that NASCAR has chosen to move to SIRIUS,” said Mel Karmazin, CEO of SIRIUS. “Without question, SIRIUS is the content leader in satellite radio. This decision places SIRIUS on track to become the content leader in all of radio, and we believe it will be an important driver of subscriber growth and advertising revenue. Our 24/7 NASCAR channel will super-serve NASCAR’s 75 million fans nationwide in a way that’s never been done before. In addition to the races, SIRIUS will take fans behind the scenes for inside news and bring them exclusive shows featuring their favorite drivers. It will be the ultimate NASCAR lifestyle experience.”

I think it's safe to say most people use Google in their Firefox toolbar search field. Yahoo probably wants to get their foot in the door before it's too late. It would be interesting if this was a result of user demand. And apparently this follows Amazon's Firefox toolbar, which actually is a result of user demand."
