NEWS FEATURES
No one knows more about us—our ailments, significant others, favorite music, what we're thinking about buying, and how much we spend—than our search engines. However, this is stuff we probably wouldn't choose to share with a multimillion dollar web company. Every major search engine in the world, however, retains every search query ever typed into its field, and privacy advocates are calling for search engines to change their ways.
In the next iteration of the protracted battle between the recording industry and online music networks, both MySpace and Facebook have agreed to remove the popular Project Playlist widget from their sites. Succumbing to pressure from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), which claims copyright infringement, the sites issued takedowns in mid-December 2008.
Elsevier, a global healthcare and scientific publisher, announced the four finalists chosen in the first Elsevier Grand Challenge on Jan. 6. The competition invited researchers to prototype tools dealing with the ever-increasing amount of online life sciences information. With cash prizes of $35,000 for first place and $15,000 for second, the winners have quite a bit at stake. Finalists will move on to present their solutions for the judges via webinar at the Experimental Biology conference in April.
Gone are the days of handwritten grocery lists and family calendars hanging on the fridge. Moms today have gone high-tech. From cell phones to blogs, more and more mothers are using technology to organize their busy lives. According to Maria T. Bailey, author of Mom 3.0: Marketing with Today's Mothers by Leveraging New Media & Technology and CEO of BSM Media, in 2009, moms will continue to leverage growing technologies and combine multiple high-tech devices to simplify their daily schedules.
FEATURED STORIES
From sloppy reporting to outright libel, not to mention web-speed requirements and confusing advertising placement. Journalism faces a slow of new challenges online. Can the old rules of media be applied? And if not, what is to become of journalistic ethics online?
As technical and cost barriers fall and security issues are addressed, the cloud has become a viable platform not only for back-end operations but also for key business practices, including content management and distribution.
Open source software always seems attractive because of the absence of license fees. However, as we'll see, not all open source tools are free of cost, and, at the end of the day, you may actually spend more money going the open source route.

FACES OF ECONTENT
"Provide the best access to the huge variety of online resources."
PRODUCT REVIEWS
Applications abound that create 3D models of objects, buildings, and virtual worlds. Online and off, users want to interact with objects and information in a more natural way, moving through data as if it were presented in a physical, dimensional space. The SpacePilot makes navigating 3D programs and virtual spaces as easy—and almost as natural—as a walk in the park.
CASE STUDIES
When Speakaboos began work on a website of storybook videos for "children and their caregivers to enjoy together," research into available commerce solutions revealed that most traditional payment gateways charge costly transaction fees that would undermine the pay per download business model the company envisioned.
