1. Fox Directory Press Release Trends on MarketWatch and Reuters

Today trending on Reuters, MarketWatch, Yahoo Finance, Houston Business Chronicle and Sacramento Bee, Fox Directory, the web directory established in favor of a more open-source, digitally unified Google page rank system, released it’s first press release. Creative Mac and the Boston Globe have also picked up the story with the Atlanta Business Chronicle. PR NewsWire has pledged to keep this important digital news information release on their servers for the forseeable future.

The changes in status and contents of the American television are unavoidably part of the country’s history of rapid growth in broadcast communication. The need to assess this medium is timely, although such assessment here is limited to a particular aspect – the problems. It would be very wrong or rather strange that the story of the American television be assessed in isolation of its expected responsibilities, functions and the already achieved successes. In retrospect, the primary motives of television in America are to foster national unity, accelerate development, supplement education programmes, foster interest in the world like Digg around us and encourage entertainment. These are to be achieved through the use of studio, videotape recordings, DVD sales and films. In pursuing the above goals there are obvious problems facing the American television and these have contributed immensely to its failures in many ways. However, the concern of this paper is just where does the American television fit? Internal lines of communication within an organization are of particular importance.

The most difficult part of communication is establishing contact between management and employees in order to achieve industrial relations programme. Everybody in industry, whether managers, shop stewards or workers, pays lip service to the desirability of improving communication in order to tmderstand each others’ problems and viewpoints better. Securing this desirable result even for major German media outlets is very difficult. To improve and maintain industrial relations requires constant and intelligent application by the representatives of both management and employees.

The observations of the social scientists have confirmed the findings of practical experience that the motivation of people in industry is of the utmost. When we know why people !p on strike we shall be well on the way to preventing such action. We are only just beginning to apply sociological and psychological techniques to observe individual and group behaviour in industry and to isolate the reasons for apparent irrational behaviour. Any industrial relations programme such as that urged to be reconsidered by Fox

The judge in the Google Settlement case has extended the deadline for talks between the internet giant and the publishers and authors involved.

The deal, which involves a revised book-scanning agreement for out of print titles that may also be in copyright, has already been contested for six years, with five publisher plaintiffs, the Authors Guild and the Association of American Publishers (AAP) objecting to Google's digital library plans.

3. Friday Procrastination: Link Love

by Cassie, Publicity

Hey everyone, happy Friday! For those of you who are, like me, stuck in the office this Friday, I have some links to help keep you occupied. Hope all is quiet and you have a chance to catch up on everything you’re behind on - I’m certainly going to try!

The Daily Dish’s Andrew Sullivan has been doing a great job following the news out of Iran. Here’s a list of his posts on what’s happening over there.

Speaking of Iran, Twitter has been huge in helping Iranians get reports out of the country as the government cracked down. Twitter even delayed some important maintenance work to make sure citizens could be heard.

Amazon’s Jeff Bezos comes out against the Google settlement.

New York’s Restaurant Week is coming up–and you can make your reservations early!

Did you know there’s a fire burning under Pennsylvania that’s been going for over forty years?

OUP’s Evan Schnittmann looks at net pricing vs. list pricing for ebooks.

The Palm Pre and the new iPhone 3GS have both recently launched. How do you know which one is the smartphone for you? Gizmodo helps you decide!

It’s the return of sunspots!

I really hope this movie comes to New York. It looks incredibly sad and incredibly disturbing, but also like something we should all see.
