YouTube Tops 4 Billion Daily Video Views |
|
Jan 23, 2012 - 6:51 PM - by Reverend

YouTube said Monday that it has exceeded 4 billion video views on a global basis per day, a sharp bump up from what the company said at the Consumer Electronics Show earlier this month.
There, Robert Kyncl, vice president of content at Google and a former architect of the Netflix streaming business, said that YouTube serves 3 billion hours per video every month. It counts 800 million unique monthly vistitors, dwarfing CBS, Hulu, and Netflix, he said at the time.
YouTube also said today that users are now uploading an hour of video every second, as users watch—and upload—more and more video.
In total, YouTube said that users are uploading 60 hours of video every minute, a feat that YouTube commemorated with onehourpersecond.com, a site devoted to cartoony representations of what an hour per second of video looks like.

Microsoft sees Windows sales slump as PC demand slows |
|
Jan 23, 2012 - 6:43 PM - by Reverend
|
Microsoft saw revenues from sales of its Windows operating system decline by six per cent in the past three months, as slowing demand for PCs from both consumer and business markets impacted sales.
The firm reported that revenues for its Windows and Windows Live division for the second quarter of its financial year hit $4.74bn, down from $5.05bn in the same quarter in 2010 and a decrease of $120m from first quarter sales.
Speaking on an earnings call about the results, Bill Koefoed, general manager for investor relations at Microsoft, said the slowdown in sales of Windows was due to a number factors and were affecting the industry at large.
"It was a challenging quarter for the industry. Factors such as flooding in Thailand, macroeconomic uncertainty and competing form factors resulted in an overall market that we estimate declined two to four 4 per cent," he said.
"In the PC market, the impact of the hard drive supply-chain constraints were not limited to a specific region or OEM-type."
Chief financial officer, Peter Klein, added that the firm expected these tough conditions to continue into the first six months of 2012.
"We expect revenue to continue to be impacted by market dynamics similar to the past several quarters. PC growth in emerging markets will outpace developed markets and business PC growth will outpace consumer PC growth," he said.
"We also expect the hard disk drive shortage to continue to challenge the PC market through at least the next quarter."

Microsoft gives details on mobile broadband improvements in Windows 8 |
|
Jan 21, 2012 - 11:02 PM - by Reverend
|
Microsoft has given details on a variety of ways in which the upcoming Windows 8 operating system does a better job than its predecessors at letting users manage their connections to Wi-Fi and mobile broadband networks.
"We looked at the fundamentals of wireless connectivity and re-engineered Windows 8 for a mobile and wireless future, going beyond incremental improvements," reads a blog post published on Friday.
Windows 8 has been designed to simplify the process of connecting to mobile broadband networks and of managing those connections, including monitoring data usage and controlling costs.
"We knew that if we were to give you true mobility, that Wi-Fi alone would not be enough. Therefore, for Windows 8, we fully developed and integrated mobile broadband (MB) as a first-class connectivity experience within Windows -- right alongside Wi-Fi," wrote Billy Anders, a Microsoft group program manager and the blog post's author.
Windows 7 allows users to connect to mobile broadband networks, but it's up to users to find and install required drivers and software, including searching for them online at times.

Megaupload file-sharing site shut down |
|
Jan 20, 2012 - 12:24 AM - by Reverend
|
Megaupload, one of the internet's largest file-sharing sites, has been shut down by officials in the US.
The site's founders have been charged with violating piracy laws.
Federal prosecutors have accused it of costing copyright holders more than $500m (320m pounds) in lost revenue. The firm says it was diligent in responding to complaints about pirated material.
The news came a day after anti-piracy law protests, but investigators said they were ordered two weeks ago.
The US Justice Department said that Megaupload's two co-founders Kim Dotcom, formerly known as Kim Schmitz, and Mathias Ortmann were arrested in Auckland, New Zealand along with two other employees of the business at the request of US officials. It added that three other defendants were still at large.
"This action is among the largest criminal copyright cases ever brought by the United States and directly targets the misuse of a public content storage and distribution site to commit and facilitate intellectual property crime," said a statement posted on its website.

Capcom has confirmed a new console title from their flagship Resident Evil series will debut this November.
Resident Evil 6 will launch Nov. 20 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, with a PC version to debut soon after, the publisher announced.
The latest installment brings two fan-favorite characters together for the first time: Leon Kennedy from Resident Evil 4 and Chris Redfield from 2009's Resident Evil 5. The duo will work together to fight off bioterrorist attacks and subsequent zombie outbreaks in the U.S. and China.
"From the outset the team's intention was to create an experience that delivers a gripping storyline, tense single-player and co-op action all set against a constant theme of horror," says executive producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi in a statement. "We are calling this fusion dramatic horror and are confident it will resonate with both existing fans of the series as well as newcomers."
