Read Tim Cook's Blisteringly Cheerful Memo to Apple Employees About Patent Victory [Apple Vs Samsung]

The verdict in the Apple vs. Samsung case may mean that over a billion dollars will be headed Apples way out of Samsung's pocket, it was also a moral victory, at least to Tim Cook. Shortly after the verdict—squarely in Apple's favor—was announced, Cook sent out a memo, congratulating those at Apple for their work, and celebrating the company's win. More »

Facebook Messages Dresses Up as Email

Facebook has given its Messages feature a redesign, endowing it with a two-panel layout that makes the social network's private communication platform look more like an e-mail client than its previous single-column interface. The revamped Facebook Messages has two sides. On the left, users will see a small panel that shows the latest contents of the message inbox. Users can click on any of those messages and see it pop up to the larger panel on the right, much like a typical e-mail client design.

Apple vs. Samsung juror: Knew after first day that Samsung had wronged Apple

Apple vs. Samsung juror: Knew after first day that Samsung had wronged Apple

Manuel Ilagan, one of the jurors in the landmark U.S. Apple vs. Samsung trial, which resulted in a sweeping $1 billion victory for Apple yesterday, has revealed that they, the jury, knew after the first day that Samsung had wronged Apple. The revelation comes as Ilagan began speaking to CNET's Greg Sandoval about what was going through the jury's mind during the trial and the deliberation that followed.

Well, there were several [pieces of compelling evidence]. The e-mails that went back and forth from Samsung execs about the Apple features that they should incorporate into their devices was pretty damning to me. And also on the last day they showed the pictures of the phones that Samsung made before the iPhone came out and ones that they made after iPhone came out. Some of the Samsung executives they presented on video from Korea, I thought they were dodging the questions. They didn't answer one of them. They didn't help their cause.

The jury not only found Samsung in violation of several Apple patents, but in willful violation, which could potential increase damages in the post-trial phase that follows. Samsung will try to get the decision reversed or the damages lowered, Apple will try to get Samsung devices banned and the damages as much as trebled in some areas.

While a jury in one case, in one jurisdiction can't be extrapolated into the larger, world wide Apple vs. Samsung patent dispute, the narrative Apple was able to tell, the momentum given to them by the victory, and what Ilagan is revealing about this jury's take on the strength of Apple's case should be carefully considered by all parties going forward.

CNET's interview with Manuel Ilagan is ongoing. You can follow along via the link below.

MakeLoveNotPorn.tv Is the NSFW Social Media and Content-Sharing Platform the Internet's Been Waiting For [Nsfw]

Porn is porn is porn is porn. It's packaged, produced, precisely staged. Even "amateur" porn isn't really amateur. As Cindy Gallop, founder of the US ad firm Bartle Bogle Hegarty and driving force behind MakeLoveNotPorn.com, is quick to clarify: the submission guidelines for user-generated porn sites specify everything from strategic camera angles to scripted dialogue, like "Oooh, I've never done this before!"

App.Net posts terms of service, asks for feedback

AppNet posts terms of service, asks for feedback

Against all odds App.Net met its funding goal, which has allowed the fledgling social network to shift its focus to the next phase of its founding. That means putting together all those essential documents that will govern its operation, including a terms of service and privacy policy. Creator Dalton Caldwell has posted first drafts of several docs and asked his backers for feedback, offering them an attempt to shape the rules that will guide how the site is run. Those policy documents are also going to be subjected to a quarterly review, which should allow the service to remain nimble if some rules turn out to be controversial or cumbersome. For more info, check out the source link.
