New York Times Wants to Be the Pandora of News

Reblogged infoneer-pulse:

The New York Times is beginning to roll out an experimental new approach to personalized news that the Poynter Institute compares to Pandora’s approach to suggesting music based on what users say they like. The paper is trying to provide a more social news experience that includes not only personalization but also a reader reputation system and new approach to commenting. So far, most of the new additions have been happening behind the scenes—rethinking how to do recommendations and tweaking algorithms. When the toolbar for TimesPeople, a simple social network launched in 2008, disappeared this week, Poynter’s Jeff Sonderman suspected something biggest was in store and reached out to chief technology officer Marc Frons who explained some upcoming features.

Tens of millions to go ‘mobile’
Reblogged techspotlight:

Tens of millions of Indian mobile-phone users could gain a gateway to the internet through a cloud-based service developed by Hewlett-Packard’s research division in the country.
HP Labs’ SiteOnMobile allows access to the internet using only SMS text messages and voice commands – potentially opening it to India’s 600 million users of mostly low-end mobile phones.
By issuing commands to so-called TaskLets – the servers of which are based in the cloud – users can perform tasks such as checking the status of an order, requesting a quotation or booking a doctor’s appointment.
