Legacy Journal: Sunday Supplement

Section:

Briefs

Summary:

“The way to cash in on a gold rush is to supply the miners with what they want and need and let them take the risks” --- the merchants of Sacramento, the apple growers of Oregon, the suppliers of St. Louis, and the bankers of New York.

A recent streamed video interview at Syracuse University Newhouse School of Communication of Google’s Eric Schmidt by media writer Ken Auletta representing the New Yorker is an example of how the New Media is viewing the business model opportunity offered by video on the Internet. 

Main:

Even the vast resources of risk capital, resources and talent available to Google are being put to the ultimate tests of business success---- can it be build and can the costs be covered and the risk return a reasonable profit within a reasonable time?

Meanwhile, the people a Google say yes, many students at Syracuse say probably, and the New Yorker seems to indicate they will explore the question at the next conference they sponsor.

Consider the possibilities of You Tube and streamed video :

Music: low cost of entry of for MTV-like video promoting events, music genres, groups, labels, CDs and tracks.

Sports: non professionial events like club sports.

News: real time reality news and weather.

Entertainment: coverage of small local events.

Education:  Demonstrations on How To--- Fix a Flat.  What the geology of the Bluffs at Lake Raquette in the Adirondacks looks like.

Class field work projects like wetland restoration, stream flow, and building a site specific realtime weather recording station.
