1. Comment - Bing vs. Google rematch on video search

   (Nov 12, 2009 - 1:34 PM)

   "Bing Video would still benefit from stepping aside even further, however, from its former role as a YouTube competitor. Like Google Video, Bing Video should realize that the user of a search engine isn't really a browser, or a "person who browses" -- he's someone who's looking for something specific. So showing "Recently Commented Videos" and "Most Watched" videos on unrelated topics to the search at hand, is not a help but a hindrance in this context."
   
   I couldn't agree more with you on this point. Attention BING - make the ""Recently Commented Videos" and "Most Watched" videos" options a button which takes you to a listing or preview page of content. We, your users, do not care to see it on our search results, nor do we want to have it slow down the rendering of the page.
   
   "Another feature Bing Video could stand to lose is "Up Next," a holdover from the MSN days. Here, the service has pre-selected a queue of videos for you to watch -- not videos pertaining to your search, just something it happened to pull up."
   
   Again, attention BING - Come on already! This was annoying then and is really annoying now.
   
   Sorry, but for me that was one of the BING killers. I will stick with Google.
   
   Oh - and unfortunately for BING - we "average" internet users, don't give you a second, third, forth, ...fortieth chance to get it right.

2. Comment - Broadcast radio one step closer to paying performers' royalties

   I see one person who isn't getting my vote come re-election time. Rep. Lamar Smith (R - Tex.)
   
   Our representatives and senators have completely forgotten about who they are supposed to represent "The people".
   
   This is just more evidence to that effect.

   Great article!
   
   I completely agree, "that's OUR story they're messing with..."
   
   If I had the poster and stills for this one, it would already be in the mail to you, because what are best friends for anyway?
