Engagement Rings Advertising On-line: Be careful choosing your Key-Words.
Idex On-line reports this morning that a U.S. court has ruled that jewelry retailer Zale violated trademark rules when it purchased the keywords “dating ring” to advertise via paid online searches on Google, Yahoo, and other search engines.
The holder of the trademark for “The Dating Ring” filed suit against Zale alleging the company violated the trademark because jewelry was displayed when visitors to the company website searched for the term “dating ring”.
Zale rejected the charge, maintaining it did not use the term for any of its jewelry, nor did it use the trademarked words on its website.
Eric Goldman, assistant professor at Santa Clara University School of Law and director of the High Tech Law Institute, said the “ruling implicitly validates Google's policy of letting advertisers buy trademarked keywords - which the court says isn't trademark use - but letting trademark owners block ad copy referencing their trademark, which the court says is a trademark use.”
Great decision Judges! You are essentially playing both sides of the fence. Spoken like true lawyers!
In Brooklyn, You'se guys would be definite maybe's.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.
