SINTRENDS OF HOLLYWOOD
In Hollywood, the math is never
simple.
Movie ticket
sales hit record But a report on
the industry's health maybe
fudging the true cost of making
films. 2130
•••March
6, 2008 In Hollywood, the math is
never simple.Worldwide box-office
revenue rose to record levels
last year, the studios' main
trade group said Wednesday -- but
a closer look at the numbers
suggests a murkier picture of
movie industry strength.
•••Movie
ticket sales climbed to $9.6
billion in the U.S. and Canada
and $26.7 billion globally, both
logging 5% increases that
demonstrated a "healthy"
industry, said Dan Glickman,
chairman of the Motion Picture
Assn. of America.
•••The
report tends to downplay the
actual cost of making movies,
however, along with currency
fluctuations that benefited
Hollywood because of the
free-falling U.S. dollar.
•••For
major studios, the average cost
of producing and marketing a
movie grew 6% to a record $106.6
million, the MPAA said. But that
number -- based on a survey of
trade group members such as Walt
Disney Co., 20th Century Fox and
Paramount Pictures -- reflects
only the $70.8 million the MPAA
said studios spent on a typical
production and the $35.9 million
they shelled out to advertise it
and make prints. MORE

"Metaphors
Are Great Analogies" -- Troy
Cory, co-author of the
'Smart-Daaf Boys,' and 'Bank of
America, Tortfeasors,' says that,
"life on the web is like Jazz
music, the best of the
performance often happens in the
TimeLine between notes. What you
do while you're waiting around
for the "Catch Note" to happen,
is more important than what you
do while you're doing."

Troy
states on the front cover of this
issue, "that purchasing a
Wireless Telephone™ is like
buying Yahoo.com, the Tribune,
and tviNews.net for $64-Billion.

•
• AP reports that
Google Inc., already the world's
most-popular spot for finding
websites, is aiming to become the
go-to place for creating websites
too.
•
• "The company is
taking its first step toward that
goal today with the debut of a
free service designed for
high-tech neophytes looking for a
simple way to share information
with other people working in the
same company or attending the
same class in school.
•
• "With only a few
clicks, just about anyone will
quickly be able to set up and
update a website featuring an
array of material, including
pictures, calendars and video
from Google's YouTube subsidiary,
said Dave Girouard, general
manager of the division
overseeing the new
application.
•
• "We are literally
adding an edit button to the
Web," Girouard said.
•
• All sites created
on the service will run on one of
Google's computers.
•
• Google's latest
service represents a challenge to
Microsoft's SharePoint, which
charges licensing fees. Google is
unveiling its alternative just a
few days before Microsoft hosts a
SharePoint conference in
Seattle.
•
• While Microsoft's
programs typically are installed
on individual computers, Google
keeps its application on its own
machines so users can access them
from anywhere with an Internet
connection.
•
• Microsoft, based in
Redmond, Wash., hopes to become a
real competitor of Google -- by
buying into Yahoo Inc. for more
than $45 billion. In the
meantime, Yahoo's giving
pay-raises. MORE

maneuvers in battle over board.
KeyEmployees Get Payraise
•••March
6, 2008 / Slumping Internet
pioneer Yahoo Inc. on Wednesday
postponed a key deadline in a
looming battle with spurned
suitor Microsoft Corp., hoping to
gain more wiggle room as it tries
to escape a takeover.
•••The
Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company's
maneuver means March 14 is no
longer the deadline for Microsoft
to nominate a slate of candidates
to replace Yahoo's current board
-- the 10 directors who rejected
the world's largest software
maker's initial takeover offer of
$44.6 billion.
•••Redmond,
Wash.-based Microsoft had already
signaled it was prepared to oust
the board if Yahoo didn't come to
the negotiating table before
March 14.
•••Yahoo
hasn't offered a new nominating
deadline. It will be set once
Yahoo announces the date of its
annual shareholders meeting.
Microsoft will have as many as 10
days after the public notice to
nominate directors and begin a
proxy battle.
•••"Our
objective here is to enable our
board to continue to explore all
of its strategic alternatives for
maximizing value for stockholders
without the distraction of a
proxy contest," Yahoo Chief
Executive Jerry Yang wrote in an
e-mail to employees.
