Britain urgently approve the digital economy law (Digital Economy Bill) to pursue online downloads. But with such a rush to the way have been some of the most important measures proposed in the initial project. No tax of six pounds a year on mobile fixed network to create new generation of broadband. The regulator Ofcom also loses its power to promote local information and broaden their skills. Orphan works can not be used through a new license, as opposed driven photographers and other groups.
Conclusion: the rush to approve the graduated response and disconnection to the P2P users download and strengthens the control of intellectual property on the Internet and ends up with measures to expand the information society and access to digital content.
As in the English case, the wording of the law is so open that it does not define what the intellectual property infringement can be pursued and respect to which "are or are likely to be used for or in connection with activities that infringe copyright." Property damage as provided by the applicants on the Law of Sustainable Economy.
In short, a system of permanent surveillance and suspected users and new businesses in the Web abusive legislation designed to protect economic rights against the rights of all.

U.S.: Announces Twitter introduction of advertising on its service. ECLAC
Twitter announced on Tuesday it will introduce advertising in its service, allowing companies to place their messages to appear first in the popular search site. The company is making money without alienating the tens of millions of people have become used to sending short messages (trills or tweets) and keep in touch with friends, celebrities and other advertising without interruptions.
Such as it has for much of his four years, Twitter has proceeded cautiously.
The new ads, called "promotional trills (Promoted Tweets) jump on the screen only when searching on the Twitter website, and messages are limited to a group small advertisers, among which are Best Buy Co., Sony Pictures, Starbucks Corp. and Virgin America.
Less than 10% of users would see the ads on Tuesday, but the messages will start appearing in searches in the coming days.
For example, an advertisement for Starbucks was forwarded by many users, thanks to its attractive offer: "On April 15, bring a reusable mug and free coffee fill.'s Change, no longer use paper cups."
Since its inception in 2006, Twitter has grown quickly in popularity, but had not yet established a plan to convert its wide use in profits.
Eventual introduction of advertising was expected, but Twitter has been gaining revenue by allowing Google Inc. and Microsoft Corp. have access to messages for their search engines.
The measure reflects a change to install ads in Twitter, which has refrained from selling advertising space even when its growing audience became a real magnet for marketing, which attracted $ 155 million from investors for the company based in San Francisco. Promoted
New Tweets will be placed as ads on the top, in the same way that sponsors can pay to be listed on search engine rankings as Google, Bing and Yahoo.
This means that users of Twitter would see new listings when they search for topics that have posted anything.
However, in a blog, Twitter co-founder, Biz Stone, the company said it would expand service and make ads also appear on the sources of the messages that users receive from people who " remain "on the site.
Stone said Promoted Tweets need to have resonance with customers. If a Tweet Promoted no response or is sent by other users will disappear.

: China is the second largest market for Latin America in the next decade.
China's participation in Latin American exports will increase from 7.6 percent in 2009 to 19.3 percent in 2020, the report said. . According to the report, the growth of China as a destination for Latin American exports would be given at the expense of a continuing decline in regional exports to the U.S.
.
to ECLAC, the importance of China as an export market varies considerably within the region.
. China
move in the next decade in Europe and you will tread on the heels of the United States as a destination for Latin American exports, according to a study published by the Commission For Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC).
China and Latin America: a strategic relationship
to maintain current growth rates of Latin American exports to its main markets, China's share will increase from 7.6 percent in 2009 to 19.3 percent in 2020, the report said.
In the same period the European Union (EU) will maintain a share of around 14.0 percent and will be overtaken by China and by 2015, says the report "China and Latin America and the Caribbean: towards a strategic relationship. " According
report, the growth of China as a destination for Latin American exports would be given at the expense of a continuing decline in regional exports to the United States, from 38.6 percent of the total in 2009 to 28.4 percent in 2020.
According to ECLAC, the importance of China as an export market varies considerably within the region as a key destination for Chile, Peru and Argentina, for example, but small enough to Central America except Costa Rica.
In the case of Mexico, its exports to China accounted for less than 1.0 per cent in 2009. As imports from China, the study predicts a similar trend, or even more radical, and that China could surpass in 2020 the European Union and the United States as the source of Latin American imports.
The increase will primarily focus on the same capital goods already present in the region, such as electronics, parts and components, machinery and textiles.
Some countries in the region, says the study, and depend heavily on China as a trading partner, led by Chile, with 13.0 percent of its exports to China. Peru followed with 11.0 percent, Argentina (9.0%), Costa Rica (7.0%) and Brazil (7.0%).
The report, however, indicates that Latin American countries should improve the quality of their trade, diversifying exports and increasing their value added and knowledge to facilitate their integration in production chains in Asia-Pacific.
China, ECLAC notes, "has become a strategic business partner" for Latin America and the Caribbean and there is "ample opportunity" to secure export and investment agreements in such fields as Mining, Energy, Agriculture, Infrastructure, and Science and Technology.
