[-- NEWSPEAK: MULTIMEDIA INDUSTRY NEWS --]
+++ Interactive Industry Employment Tops Broadcasting
A survey report released this week by Toronto-based
MultiMediator Strategy Group Inc. (MMSG) states that with
estimated annual revenues at $3.5 billion (1999), the
interactive media services industry in Canada now employs
more people than the broadcast industry. "For business in
general, this finding is a milestone; another indication
that the world is shifting from a world of multiple
vehicles with broadcast in the lead, to a world of two:
interactive and non-interactive," says Adam Froman,
President and CEO, MMSG. However, the report also reveals
that the revenue per employee ratio in the interactive
media services industry is mediocre compared to other
segments of the information technology sector in Canada.
Fewer than half the interactive media production companies
surveyed have achieved the optimal revenue per employee
balance that will ensure adequate profitability to cover
overhead while at the same time providing sufficient
capital for company growth. For the second year in a row
MMSG surveyed Canadian interactive media producers to
assess their experiences, successes and concerns about the
industry. The survey, with 289 companies participating, is
the largest of its kind ever conducted in Canada. For more
information and an executive summary of the survey report,

+++ Canadian Convergence Darling Cuts Workforce
Toronto-based interactive media pioneers ExtendMedia,
creator of the TAG interactive media technology and
producers of the online cooking show Dish It Out, has
announced plans to cut a quarter of its work force. Known
as much for its funky, pet-friendly 'Liberty Village'
office space as it is for its cutting-edge but rarely-seen
work, ExtendMedia is one of Canada's best know, if seldom
understood, interactive media companies. In a statement,
ExtendMedia CEO Keith Kocho said, "It's important that the
industry understands this reorganization will strengthen
ExtendMedia's leadership in interactive media in the long
term." When queried about the long-standing rumour that
the company wanted to go public, a company spokesperson
told CanadaComputes.com that ExtendMedia is still
considering that option, "but we need to look at what the
market is like and we need the market to understand that
we're a media company, not just an Internet company."
ExtendMedia, formerly known as Digital Renaissance, is 26%
owned by BCE, and 10% owned by Alliance Atlantis
Communications. The company suffered a $9.4 million loss
in 1999, triple its 1998 losses, on revenue of $8.7
million. Over the last 18 months, the company has focused
its efforts on the interactive television market, a market
which Kocho admitted to the Financial Post "just hasn't
materialized yet." (Source: CanadaComputes.com, Financial
Post)

+++ Renegadz Wins CAB's First Annual Dotcom Showdown
The excitement was high last week on the Business Exchange
Floor at the Canadian Association of Broadcasters' annual
convention in Calgary, when it was announced that Renegadz
Inc. was the winner of the $10,000 Dotcom Showdown.
Renegadz was one of five Canadian entrepreneurs selected
to "pitch" their interactive media projects before a panel
of radio and television broadcasters and venture
capitalists at the CAB's first ever Dotcom Showdown. "This
is awesome. You've validated the empowerment of the next
of generation of teens. The CAB and this event has proven
that the Canadian broadcasting industry will be able to
cross all borders and boundaries," said Carolyn Newman and
Charly Smith of Renegadz. "The energy and excitement,
witnessed this morning was tremendous, " said Michael
McCabe, CAB President and CEO. "I know that I speak for
everyone there when I say congratulations to all the
finalists. Their innovative ideas demonstrated that the
Canadian interactive media industry is dynamic and strong.
This event is a win-win for everyone involved: Renegadz
who won the competition, the panel and audience who heard
innovative ideas, and the private broadcasting industry
who are looking to partner with interactive media
companies." The CAB, in consultation with its convention
partner MMSG, developed the Dotcom Showdown as an
opportunity for Canadian interactive media companies to
present their creative new media projects or technological
innovations to the Canada's private broadcasters. The five
finalists were selected from over 30 entries and were
invited to participate in a 10-minute "pitch" session
before a panel of Canadian broadcasters and venture
capitalists. The $10,000 prize was sponsored by the Bell
Broadcast and New Media Fund and PricewaterhouseCoopers.

+++ Trapeze Wins Gold at INVISION 2000
Toronto-based Trapeze has taken home the New Media
INVISION 2000 award for best broadband content for its
digital suspense thriller, SafehouseLive, beating out
1,100 entries from eighteen countries. The online program
invites the audience to join a fictional, online rave from
the safety of their home while four "live" cameras
broadcast the action from four different rooms at the
party. (See BitStream #26.) "The INVISION Awards are to
new media what the Golden Globes are to film and we are
thrilled to have SafehouseLive honored by such a well-
respected award," says Rebecca Scott, Creative Director
and Co-Founder of Trapeze. "SafehouseLive is entertainment
designed specifically for the new medium of broadband. It
combines new technology with an exciting story to create a
whole new kind of entertainment."
http://www.safehouselive.com
http://www.trapezemedia.com
Unfortunately, the fanfare to accompany Trapeze's prize
was short-lived. HyperMedia Communications (the company
that published NewMedia.com and produced the INVISION
awards) unexpectedly closed its doors on October 17th and
cancelled the awards ceremony and festival planned for
this month in San Francisco. It cited an inability to
secure the financing necessary to continue operations as
the reason for the sudden shut down. NewMedia magazine,
when it was a magazine rather than a Web site, used to be
the 'bible' for many of us in the industry, so it's sad to
see it come to a bitter end.

+++ Chilly Beach Saves World, Wins Prize
An animation series that celebrates the Canadian
traditions of hockey brawls and beer drinking has won an
award for excellence at the Baddeck International New
Media Festival, held October 19 in Baddeck, Nova
Scotia. The three-part episode of Chilly Beach, entitled
"Shut Your Space Hole," won top hours in the Entertainment
- Animation category. Chilly Beach "follows the adventures
of a modest, unassuming Maple Leaf fan, Frank Shackleford,
who gets NASA out of a jam when a Black Hole threatens the
planet." "Shut Your Space Hole" spoofs the popular US
trivia show, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" with the
fictional Canadian equivalent, "Who Wants to Win a Hundred
Bucks," hosted by television personality Mike Duffy. "This
award is a yet another feather in our cap," said Chilly
Beach writer and director Doug Sinclair. "It's a real
tribute to the hard work and creative talents of the whole
Chilly Beach team." Chilly Beach was developed using Flash
technology by Infopreneur, a Toronto-based new media
company. All 17 episodes of Chilly Beach are available for
viewing at the Chilly Beach Web site.

+++ Business Roundtable Urges Canada to Embrace E-Business
The Canadian E-Business Opportunities Roundtable has
presented the federal Industry Minister with a "national
agenda for e-business leadership." The sweeping report,
entitled Fast Forward: Accelerating Canada's Leadership in
the Internet Economy, concludes that Canada is "well-
positioned to take advantage of e-business opportunities
but is not aggressively rising to the challenge." The
report further urges Canadian businesses, governments and
institutions to capitalize fully and quickly on the e-
business opportunity.

+++ The Net Impact of Canada's Wired Election Season
Never mind the party sites that have sprouted up during
the Canadian federal election. The real Internet
battleground could centre on the likes of Ivan Smith, the
68-year-old retired math and physics teacher from Canning,
Nova Scotia. According to a report in The Globe and Mail,
"Mr. Smith crossed swords with Jan-Pierre Kingsley, the
keeper of the Canada Elections Act... by posting the results
of Joe Clark's by-election victory in Kings-Hants before
polls closed in the Okanagan riding where Stockwell Day
was running." Charges were subsequently filed, but Mr.
Smith continues to argue "that the Internet can't be
controlled and, if it could, authorities should be going
after pornographers and racists rather than a
redistributor of public information." (Source: The Globe
and Mail)
In the meantime, the Canadian Alliance party has failed in
its effort to close down a Web site spoofing the party.
Alliance official Bob Dechert had argued that the
www.canadianallianceparty.net site should be shut down
because it "sows confusion among voters." Mike Gifford's
site features a disclaimer stating "If you are looking for
the Official Site of the Canadian Alliance Party, this
isn't it. If you couldn't figure that out, you need to
both read our disclaimer, and get a life." "This is the
information age," Gifford is quoted as saying, "no one can
control the Internet; it is a vehicle for open and
democratic discussion. Our site is the result of
grassroots activism and now the Canadian Alliance wants to
stifle and silence any grassroots debate. Frankly the
Alliance should try to live by its credo of grassroots
democracy instead of displaying their blatant hypocrisy
towards grassroots Internet activism."

+++ Controversial Copyright.ca Web Site Raises Questions
The Periodical Writers Association of Canada (PWAC) is
expressing concern over a new Web site that implies that a
$100 fee is required in order to "register your
copyright." PWAC points out that, in Canada, a work is
automatically protected from inception under the Copyright
Act. No fee is required in order to establish copyright
ownership, they add. In fact registration is really only
of benefit should it be required to establish that the
work was created at a specific time. That can usually be
accomplished by sending a copy of the work to yourself via
registered mail. The site is attributed to Kasia Copyright
Services and StartupsVenture.com, "founded in Ottawa,
Ontario in April, 2000. The Company's objective is to
maximize its revenue, from investing into startup firms."

+++ Putting a (Happy) Face on Email
BCE Media has designed and produced what it is calling the
"first-ever email booth, a device that allows users to
send email, with audiovisual content, around the world."
The prototype was available to the public during the
Montreal International Festival of New Cinema and New
Media (FCMM) in October. Users could then deliver their
opinion on the service directly online. We double-checked
our inbox and found nary a hint of audiovisual extras.
Maybe next time....

+++ Inpix Media Launches On-Demand Web Programs
Montreal's Inpix Media has announced the launch of
PixTV.net, "the first on-demand video broadcaster aimed at
high-speed Internet users." At first PixTV will offer
three Web programs targeted at francophones around the
world, with plans to produce ten new Web programs in
collaboration with different producers and broadcasters in

have the means to offer quality content to high-speed
Internet users," said Normand Belisle, President of Inpix
Media.. "Broadcasters are now important players in new
media. We are very confident that the range and the
quality of our products will position Inpix Media as a
first-class partner for the broadcasting industry'' added.
Hubert Harel, Chairman of Inpix Media.

+++ Yahoo.ca Launches One-Stop Stopping Service
Yahoo! Canada has launched "a safe and secure one-stop

Indigo, The Brick, and La Senza, with the latter
"committed to selling online exclusively through Yahoo!

convenient and reliable Internet shopping experience,"
said Mark Rubinstein, managing director, Yahoo! Canada

+++ Alberta to Offer Province-Wide High-Speed Net Access
The province of Alberta is set to spend $300 million to
bring high-speed Internet access to more than 400
communities across the province. The system, called
Supernet, will allow small businesses in rural Alberta to
have the same access to the Internet as those in large
North American cities. The provincial government will pay
for almost two-thirds of the project and a consortium of
communications companies under Bell Intrigna will cover
the rest. The network will be offered to any community
with at least one school, hospital, library, government or
municipal office. "There are all kinds of small companies
in the rural parts of Alberta, who, in order to play on
the world stage, have to move to Edmonton or Calgary,"
says Denis Herard, the MLA for Calgary-Egmont. "Now,
somebody in Slave Lake, or anywhere, doesn't have to move
[to] Edmonton to have access to the world." The Supernet
system should be completed in three years. (Source: CBC

+++ Shaw Invests $200 Million in Internet Network
Calgary-based Shaw Communications has approved a new $200
million investment in the Shaw Internet network. The money
will be focused on upgrading and expanding Shaw's
extensive cable modem network, aimed at delivering
"improved network performance for Shaw@Home and the new
Digital Cable service." Earlier this year, Shaw announced
a $100 million investment in its Internet backbone and
fibre optic links between major cities. "Our commitment to
our customers is that we will provide them with the
fastest and most reliable high-speed Internet service in
Canada," said Peter Bissonnette, President of Shaw
Cablesystems. "This significant investment reflects our
commitment to this objective."

+++ High-speed Comes to Eastern Ontario
The Ottawa Citizen reports that plans are afoot to bring
high-speed Internet access to South Dundas at 50 per cent
below the market rates. The Eastern Ontario township,
comprised of Morrisburg, Iroquois and surrounding rural
areas is 70 kilometres south of Ottawa. Recently they
"used a $600,000 surplus from a municipal hydro commission
to string fibre-optic lines to every business in the
community." The investment puts the municipality of about
12,000 "years ahead of major cities where high-capacity
fibre ends at central offices and slower copper wires
serve most businesses and homes." The plan would mean that
no service fees would have to be paid to telephone or
cable companies for use of the wires since the community
owns the cable. The service is expected to be of
particular interest to those who might otherwise commute
to Ottawa. (Source: The Ottawa Citizen)

+++ Two-Way Wireless Text Messaging Now Available
Rogers AT&T Wireless has introduced two way text
messaging, capable of sending and receiving messages of up
to 150 characters on a Digital PCS phone. The service
works on an intelligent keypad technology called
Predictive Text which works by "predicting" the words a
user is entering into their wireless phone, thereby
reducing the number of keystrokes necessary to compose a
message. "According to the GSM Association, over nine
billion text messages are sent out around the world every
month," says Nadir Mohamed, President and Chief Operating
Officer, Rogers AT&T Wireless. "The association predicts
this number will jump to 15 billion by the end of 2000."

+++ September Web Usage Report
The latest survey from Media Metrix reports that 12
million Canadians spent almost 8 billion minutes on the
Internet in September. The monthly report indicates that
two sites relating to the 2000 Olympics (olympics.com and
NBColympics.com) both played a major role in the Canadian
stats. Olympics.com reported 513,000 unique Canadian
visitors, spending a total of 9 million minutes on the
site. The report also found that 12,092,000 Canadians
visited Web sites or used digital media applications
during the month. On an average day, "4,756,000 Canadian
unique visitors were posted spending nearly 50 minutes
surfing the Web and viewing 42 unique pages each."
September's top Web properties for total Canada at Home
include Microsoft Sites, AOL Network and Yahoo Sites,
while in French speaking Canada, top properties included

+++ Canadians Per Capita Leaders in Internet Use
Sure the winters are long and cold, but how to explain a
new study that indicates that Canadians lead the world in
terms of Internet users per capita. The study by the
Internet Industry Almanac found that while the US ranked
number one in Internet users, with almost 40 per cent of
the 280 million users at the end of 1999, Canada ranked
number one in users per capita, with 43 per cent of the
population being regular Internet users. The US rated
fourth in this category. The study defines an Internet
users as "any person over 16 who uses the Internet on a
regular basis at least once a month. These numbers include
business, educational and home Internet users." The IIA
projects that the US will have over 165 million Internet
users, or 27 per cent of the total 601M worldwide Internet
users in year 2002. (Source: Publish Media)

+++ Canadians Are Social Animals Online
A new survey by Ipsos-Reid shows that "a significant
proportion of online Canadians are meeting new
acquaintances and establishing new personal relationships
online. In many instances, this has led to meetings in
person for friendship, but also for more intimate
relationships." Of the 70 per cent of Canadians who
currently have access to the Internet, 86 per cent have
used email, and a further 71 per cent communicate via
email once per week or more often. A further 32 per cent
have participated in chat sessions, and 12 per cent do so
on a regular basis (once-per-week). "Online Canadians
appear to be a social lot," said Steve Mossop, a Senior
Vice-president at the Ipsos-Reid Corporation. "This trend
runs contrary to the common perception that the Internet
is not a social medium. The Internet has provided a means
to cultivate relationships that people may be lacking in
their offline world."
