Dan Frommer wonders if &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_does_the_next_xbox_need_discs_at_all.php"&gt;downloads or discs are more applicable for the next gen XBox&lt;/a&gt;.   All of this and more in the ReadWriteWeb Weekly Wrap-up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the jump you'll find more of this week's top news stories on some of the key topics that are shaping the Web - &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;Location&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;App Stores&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/real-time-web/"&gt;Real-Time Web&lt;/a&gt; - plus highlights from some of our six channels. Read on for more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="[Infographic] The SMB Social Media Cheat Sheet" src="http://rww.readwriteweb.netdna-cdn.com/biz/social-media-ig-150.jpg" width="75" height="75" class="mt-image-left" style="float: left; margin: 0 20px 20px 0;" /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com//biz/2012/01/infographic-the-smb-social-med.php"&gt; [Infographic] The SMB Social Media Cheat Sheet&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Make sure the social media noobs in your company check out &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com//biz/2012/01/infographic-the-smb-social-med.php"&gt;The SMB Social Media Cheat Sheet&lt;/a&gt; from Flowtown. The infograhic includes instructions on how to use various social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Google+, Tumblr and Digg. LinkedIn is notably missing, but other that it's a great infographic and one that's sure to be helpful in your office. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="Why Does the Next Xbox Need Discs At All?" src="http://rww.readwriteweb.netdna-cdn.com/bluray.jpg" width="75" height="75" class="mt-image-left" style="float: left; margin: 0 20px 20px 0;" /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_does_the_next_xbox_need_discs_at_all.php"&gt; Why Does the Next Xbox Need Discs At All? &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Kotaku reported that the &lt;a href="http://kotaku.com/5879202/sources-the-next-xbox-will-play-blu+ray-may-not-play-used-games-and-will-introduce-kinect-2"&gt;next generation of Xbox might not play used games&lt;/a&gt;. Dan Frommer &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_does_the_next_xbox_need_discs_at_all.php"&gt;wondered about the future of discs for the gaming industry&lt;/a&gt; as a whole.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;The future is probably downloadable or streaming games, but until we get better bandwidth, it's not practical for everyone yet.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Udemy has put together an infographic that compares Ruby, PHP and Python. This looks (briefly) at the history, popularity, ease of use, demand for programmers, benchmarks and more for each language. If you're job-hunting, Udemy says that you probably want to know PHP above Ruby or Python. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/hack/2012/01/infographic-php-vs-python-vs-r.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;People sure do love jailbreaking their iOS devices. In fact, after Friday's launch of the Absinthe A5 tool, jailbreaking iOS 5 on A5-powered devices was almost as popular as the iPhone 4S itself when it first launched.  &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/1_million_jailbreak_iphone_4s_ipad_2_ios_5.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

And It's Accelerating &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There are plenty of impressive stats in Apple's December quarter earnings report, such as 37 million iPhones shipped, $46 billion of overall sales, and $13 billion of profit.  &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/jailbreak_ios_5_iphone_4s_ipad_2.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Back in the early 1990s, we didn't have BlackBerries or any kind of wireless data devices. Phones weren't very "smart," and dial up still ruled the land. Then a trio of companies came together to invent the Viking Express which was a combination of an Ericsson Mobidem wireless data modem that was the size of a small brick, an HP 100 pocket-sized computer that looked more like a big calculator, and software from a company called Radiomail that ran on the DOS operating system of the HP. The world of wireless hasn't been the same since.  &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com//enterprise/2012/01/a-brief-history-of-the-blackbe.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Twitter will censor tweets in certain countries while still publishing them throughout the rest of the world, the company said Thursday on its blog.

&lt;p&gt;"As we continue to grow internationally, we will enter countries that have different ideas about the contours of freedom of expression. Some differ so much from our ideas that we will not be able to exist there," the company said. "Others are similar but, for historical or cultural reasons, restrict certain types of content, such as France or Germany, which ban pro-Nazi content."  &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com//archives/twitter_will_censor_certain_tweets_in_certain_coun.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today is the 3rd Annual Community Manager Appreciation day. Originally founded back in 2010 by Jeremiah Owyang, the 4th Monday of January has since become a day to both thank Community Managers and to enjoy some great community-themed content. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com//archives/community_manager_appreciation_day_2012.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Perhaps not since "The Sweet Hereafter" has there ever been a more pivotal bus crash shown on TV or in the movies. Today Priceline begins a new ad campaign that shows the death of its William Shatner "Negotiator" character. For those of you that haven't seen "The Sweet Hereafter," a movie based on a Russell Banks story, it is worth renting just for Ian Holm's wonderful performance. But back to Priceline and Shatner. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com//archives/pricelines_shatner_negotiator_makes_his_last_deal.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Google &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/they_did_it_google_personalizes_search_it_is_not_e.php"&gt;launched Personalized Search&lt;/a&gt;, just a week after Jon Mitchell lamented that &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_is_going_to_mess_up_the_internet.php"&gt;Google+ was going to mess up the internet&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;p&gt;More than &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/foxconn_factory_mass_suicide_averted.php"&gt;300 workers at Foxconn threatened to commit suicide&lt;/a&gt;.  This isn't the first time the manufacturer of the Kindle, the iPad and the XBox 360 has come under fire for difficult working conditions.  In this case, the standoff ended without any deaths.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A 2011 study from the University of Texas at Austin's Department of Psychology called "Manifestations of Personality in Online Social Networks: Self-Reported Facebook-Related Behaviors and Observable Profile Information" published in the academic journal Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking found that Facebook users are no different online than they are offline. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/study_your_facebook_personality_is_the_real_you.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

By this time next year, barring any delays, the Web delivery model for the world's three most prevalent platforms - Windows, iOS, and Android - will be based on apps.  &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com//hack/2012/01/mozillas-plan-for-keeping-fire.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Since Apple released the iPhone in 2007 and the subsequent rise of Android, IT departments have struggled to reconcile device and application management, security and software deployment. What to do when every employee wants to bring their own device to work? &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com//mobile/2012/01/infographic-the-growth-of-ente.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Answers to that question are anything but simple. Who is your target audience? What is the purpose of the app? There are a series of diverse questions that must be answered before jumping right into development.  &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com//mobile/2012/01/hybrid-html5-apps-are-more-les.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The announcement was called "Search, plus Your World." It was the inevitable launch of the integration between Google's core product, Web search, and its new identity service, Google+. There are now two modes of search on Google, personal and global. Personal search shows users stuff from their Google+ circles, and global search is good old Google search, albeit with public Google+ posts included. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/suddenly_google_is_winning_the_online_identity_rac.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Today is the day the International Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) opens up its new registry for generic Top Level Domains and it will have a profound affect on how people find and consume information on the Web.

&lt;p&gt;Jon Mitchell hates Google+, and he's not shy about sharing why.  In the most popular ReadWriteWeb story of the week, Jon details the issues he has with Google+, from the minor annoyances to more serious ones, like prioritizing Google+ posts about an article over the article itself, Jon is concerned about how Google+ is already affecting Google Search.  Check out why Jon thinks &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_is_going_to_mess_up_the_internet.php"&gt;Google+ is going to mess up the internet&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Don't start preparing for Armageddon just yet.  NASA has created &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/nasa_debunks_2012_apocalypse_with_new_faq.php"&gt;an FAQ to ease fears that world will end this year&lt;/a&gt;.   Those of you sitting on a few cases of &lt;a href="http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/wacky-edibles/e8f0/"&gt;tactical sammiches&lt;/a&gt; should probably check out this FAQ pronto.  For the rest of us, the FAQ is an entertaining and educational trip through some of the more interesting doomsday predictions for 2012.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Once the darling of the Web and the champion of the oppressed against Microsoft and Internet Explorer, Firefox is facing stiff competition from its primary benefactor and backlash from users. Chrome also seems to be the preferred browser of Web developers. Naturally, this means speculation about the future of Firefox. &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com//hack/2011/12/why-firefox-isnt-doomed.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

This update was first spotted by communications agency WeAreSocial.sg. The private messaging feature would give customers the opportunity to speak privately with page owners.

The real-time Web sounded like a great idea, but it has become impossible to manage. The success of social media has proven, ironically, to be its biggest challenge. The services we already use are getting busier, and whole new networks are popping up all the time. Email used to be the only problem. Today, the info streams are legion. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/bottlenose_intelligent_social_dashboard_launches_p.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From the comments:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="https://openid.org/knooq"&gt;Knooq&lt;/a&gt; -- "Thumbs up for jQuery, CSS3PIE and Chrome Developer Tools.  I still think Eclipse is one of the best development tools out there, and the Aptana plugin has improved on many aspects of this IDE."&lt;/blockquote&gt;

From books to classes, meetups to online tutorials, there's no excuse not to bone up on your coding skills.  Best of all, several developers dropped suggestions in the comments that you can also use to get up and running in no time.  &lt;br /&gt;

It is one of the joys of our life to sift through the flood of apps that are published or updated every month and deliver the best or most interesting to our readers. November had some great apps for Android, the iPhone and the iPad. In our ongoing series of Apps Of The Month, we take a look at what November produced below. We are continuing for the third month with our list of app updates so you can keep track of what you need to update for functionality and security purposes. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/new_iphone_ipad_and_android_apps_for_november_2011.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

A few stalwarts predominate, such as Git, Eclipse, AWS, Dropbox, MySQL, and Google Analytics. But there were a few surprises too, including 23% using Notepad++ as their text editor and 8% using Heroku to host their apps. Many of the categories are wide open. All of those surveyed are from companies of less than 100 people from around the world. &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com/hack/2011/12/infographic-what-tools-develop.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

New services are being designed every day to give the average person the capability to create a mobile app, even if they do not know how to code. The problem is that many of these services create a cookie-cutter app that many fear will drive Web design back to the dark ages of the mid-to-late 1990s when static, uninspired websites ruled the land. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/mobile/2011/12/conduit-helps-build-mobile-app.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

In concept, Hello is brilliant.

The U.S. Justice Department certainly has and they're investigating why that is and if it's legal. Specifically, the DOJ is looking into whether Apple and major publishers colluded to set e-book prices in a manner that would violate antitrust laws, the agency confirmed yesterday. &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/paying_apple_too_much_for_e-books.php"&gt;More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>Daily Wrap: The Return of Reasonable Debate and More</title>

Today's lesson is one of &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/3-lessons-learned-from-the-sop.php"&gt;reasoned debate in the age of ad hominem attacks&lt;/a&gt;.  This and more in today's Daily Wrap.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sometimes it's difficult to catch every story that hits tech media in a day, so we wrap up some of the most talked about stories.  We give you a daily recap of what you missed in the ReadWriteWeb Community, including a link to some of the most popular discussions in our offsite communities on &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/rww"&gt;Twitter&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://facebook.com/readwriteweb"&gt;Facebook&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.linkedin.com/groups/ReadWriteWeb-4097356?trk=myg_ugrp_ovr"&gt;LinkedIn&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://plus.google.com/112111196451586545452/posts"&gt;Google+&lt;/a&gt; as well.  &lt;em&gt;This is a new feature at ReadWriteWeb so we covet your feedback.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/3-lessons-learned-from-the-sop.php"&gt;3 Lessons Learned from the SOPA Debate Last Week&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Last week we published a &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/legal-analysis-of-sopa-protect.php"&gt;legal analysis of SOPA&lt;/a&gt;.  Two commenters, e-novel publisher, &lt;a href="http://www.rowenacherry.com/"&gt;Rowena Cherry&lt;/a&gt;, and TechDirt founder, &lt;a href="http://techdirt.com/"&gt;Michael Masnick&lt;/a&gt;, engaged in a lively debate that inspired Scott Fulton to write up the &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/3-lessons-learned-from-the-sop.php"&gt;lessons we should learn from such an intelligent, if not always perfectly polite, conversation&lt;/a&gt;.  Since so many internet communities have thrown away vigorous but reasoned debate and turned to personal attacks instead, I hope we can learn from Rowena's and Michael's example.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are a few more must read posts, chosen by your fellow community members.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;DRAM makers have always been losing money, way too much over-production is the cause, not iPads. Otherwise you would see an effect on microprocessor sales, and you don't, Intel is killing it every quarter.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;I'd be very curious to know what other mobile developers think too. I just released an iPhone app following the traditional paid scheme, but I am wondering if I shouldn't also offer this app with ads. Would you recommend ad-supported apps, fellow coders?&lt;br /&gt;

         <title>Weekly Wrap-up:  Facebook Frictionless Sharing and More</title>
		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="weekly_wrapup-1.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/weekly_wrapup-1.png" width="150" height="150" /&gt;Marshall Kirkpatrick explains &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_facebooks_seamless_sharing_is_wrong.php"&gt;Why Facebook's Seamless Sharing is Wrong&lt;/a&gt;.  All of this and more in the ReadWriteWeb Weekly Wrap-up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the jump you'll find more of this week's top news stories on some of the key topics that are shaping the Web - &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;Location&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;App Stores&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/real-time-web/"&gt;Real-Time Web&lt;/a&gt; - plus highlights from some of our six channels. Read on for more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Top Stories of the Week&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_facebooks_seamless_sharing_is_wrong.php"&gt;Why Facebook's Seamless Sharing is Wrong&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our coverage of &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/facebook_hasnt_ruined_sharing_its_just_re-defined_it.php"&gt;Facebook's frictionless sharing&lt;/a&gt; was of great interest to the ReadWriteWeb community.  Several of this week's top stories were focused on Facebook's oft overwhelming &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/frictionless_sharing_pros_cons.php"&gt;auto-sharing&lt;/a&gt; of banal minutiae.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Marshall looked at why the sharing was wrong, and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_facebooks_seamless_sharing_is_wrong.php"&gt;even compares Facebook to malware&lt;/a&gt;.  

&lt;p&gt;From Marshall:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;I think Facebook ought to put a greater emphasis on acting in good faith and helping its users make informed decisions, in line with their reasonable expectations, as the company seeks to experiment with building the future of media.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ReadWriteWeb commenter &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://disqus.com/JLishere/"&gt;JLishere&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; summed it up:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="Comment from Why Facebook's Seamless Sharing is Wrong" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/Screen%20shot%202011-11-25%20at%202.22.59%20PM.png" width="541" height="143" class="mt-image-none" style="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Another popular post this week was &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/infographic-xkcd-shows-you-the.php"&gt;our coverage of xkcd's infographic&lt;/a&gt;, "&lt;a href="http://www.xkcd.com/980/"&gt;Money&lt;/a&gt;":  A well-done visualization of money, from the cost of a single restaurant meal at McDonalds to the net worth of Jeff Bezos.   It's really a must-see infographic.  I ordered a copy of the poster because it's difficult to appreciate on a computer monitor.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_was_never_a_facebook_competitor.php"&gt;Google+ Was Never a Facebook Competitor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Guest blogger, &lt;a href="http://bradj.co.uk/"&gt;Brad Jordan&lt;/a&gt;, makes the case that &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_was_never_a_facebook_competitor.php"&gt;Google+ was never intended to compete with Facebook&lt;/a&gt;, but to expand their advertising reach further.  &lt;/p&gt;

         <title>Weekly Wrap-up:  Effects of the Internet Blacklist Bill and More</title>
		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="weekly_wrapup-1.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/weekly_wrapup-1.png" width="150" height="150" /&gt;HR 3261 has riled up the internet and with good reason.  We take a look at the effects of the new bill, in an &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/infographic-effects-of-the-int.php"&gt;easy to follow infographic from the folks at AmericanCensorship.org&lt;/a&gt;.  All of this and more in the ReadWriteWeb Weekly Wrap-up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the jump you'll find more of this week's top news stories on some of the key topics that are shaping the Web - &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;Location&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;App Stores&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/real-time-web/"&gt;Real-Time Web&lt;/a&gt; - plus highlights from some of our six channels. Read on for more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Top Stories of the Week&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/infographic-effects-of-the-int.php"&gt;Infographic: Effects of the Internet Blacklist Bill (SOPA)&lt;/a&gt; [Updated]&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Trying to keep up with every threat to privacy online is a never-ending race on the hamster wheel.  For that reason, when someone jumps up and down and tells us to pay close attention to the latest threat, many of us shrug our shoulders because we just don't have the time to learn about each and every major privacy threat in the tech new cycle.  To help us cut through the overwhelming amount of information we've already received about SOPA, the Stop Internet Piracy Act, the team at AmericanCensorship.org brings us this &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/11/infographic-effects-of-the-int.php"&gt;simple to follow infographic that very clearly details the risks of SOPA&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ReadWriteWeb commenter &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://disqus.com/Cov/"&gt;COV&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; summed it up best:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://disqus.com/iamdamian/"&gt;&lt;img alt="Infographic: Effects of the Internet Blacklist Bill (SOPA)" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/Screen%20shot%202011-11-17%20at%2011.45.43%20PM.png" width="633" height="433" class="mt-image-none" style="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this corner, veteran marketing tool, Facebook brand pages.  In the other corner, newcomer to the social space, Google+ brand pages.  Richard takes a hard look at both offerings by checking out the brand pages of luxury auto makers BMW and Mercedes-Benz on each.&lt;p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here's a review of DataSift, the second licensed reseller of tweets.  More likely a business offering than a consumer tool, DataSift has great potential and a confusing UI.

         <title>Weekly Wrap-up:  Cartel Kills Another Journalist in Mexico and More</title>
		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="weekly_wrapup-1.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/weekly_wrapup-1.png" width="150" height="150" /&gt;Another journalist was &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/drug_cartel_murders_another_blogger.php"&gt;killed for speaking out&lt;/a&gt; against drug cartel, Las Zetas.  Dan reviews the &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/new_iphone_ipad_and_android_apps_for_october_2011.php"&gt;mobile apps released for October&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/hack/2011/11/groveio-hosted-searchable-irc.php"&gt;Grove.io promises a better IRC experience&lt;/a&gt;.  All of this and more in the ReadWriteWeb Weekly Wrap-up.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the jump you'll find more of this week's top news stories on some of the key topics that are shaping the Web - &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;Location&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;App Stores&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/real-time-web/"&gt;Real-Time Web&lt;/a&gt; - plus highlights from some of our six channels.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/drug_cartel_murders_another_blogger.php"&gt;Drug Cartel Murders Another Blogger&lt;/a&gt; [Updated]&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/drug_cartel_murders_another_blogger.php"&gt;Journalism in Mexico is dangerous&lt;/a&gt;.  More than a dozen men and women who report on the drug cartel, Las Zetas, have been savagely murdered.  The most recent casualty of this war is Rascatripas.  His body, hung from the same overpass as last month's double murder of journalists, was adorned with a sign that said, in Spanish, "This happened to me for not understanding that I shouldn't report on the social networks."&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ReadWriteWeb commenter &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://disqus.com/iamdamian/"&gt;iamdamian&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; summed it up best:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;IRC has some annoyances, but all in all, it's a darn fine protocol that has served us well for years.  &lt;a href="http://leahculver.com/"&gt;Leah Culver&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://about.me/jorilallo"&gt;Jori Lallo&lt;/a&gt;, both of &lt;a href="https://convore.com/"&gt;Convore&lt;/a&gt;, have created &lt;a href="http://grove.io/"&gt;Grove&lt;/a&gt; which promises to remove some of the IRC hurdles, like hosting, so that we can continue to use this open protocol with ease.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ReadWriteWeb Commenter, &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/dyng"&gt;David Yang&lt;/a&gt; is hopeful:&lt;/p&gt;

         <title>Weekly Wrap-up:  4Chan's Founder Tells Facebook and Google They're Doing It Wrong and more</title>
		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="weekly_wrapup-1.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/weekly_wrapup-1.png" width="150" height="150" /&gt;Founder of 4Chan, Chris Poole, aka moot, gave a particularly strong talk at Web 2.0 Expo, in which he asserted that &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/4chans_chris_poole_facebook_google_are_doing_it_wr.php"&gt;Facebook and Google were doing it wrong&lt;/a&gt;, and that they should emulate Twitter's stance on identity.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the jump you'll find more of this week's top news stories on some of the key topics that are shaping the Web - &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/mobile-services/"&gt;Mobile&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;App Stores&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/identity/"&gt;Identity&lt;/a&gt; - plus highlights from some of our six channels. Read on for more.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Top Stories of the Week&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/4chans_chris_poole_facebook_google_are_doing_it_wr.php"&gt;4chan's Chris Poole: Facebook &amp; Google Are Doing It Wrong&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Chris Poole had already &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/4chan_founder_anonymity_is_authenticity.php"&gt;stressed the importance of anonymity earlier this year at SXSW&lt;/a&gt;, but since the release of Google Plus, which he says is even more worrying, he reiterated his assertion that allowing handles on the web is essential.  The &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/4chans_chris_poole_facebook_google_are_doing_it_wr.php"&gt;resulting discussion of the ramifications of forced real names&lt;/a&gt;, handles and identity as only based on the name on your ID card, was one of the most interesting I've seen in months.  When you take the time to read through this story, don't forget to pour through the comments.  There's real wisdom therein.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/mobile/2011/10/where-is-the-iphone-malware-lo.php"&gt;Where Is the iPhone Malware? Lookout Releases iOS Security App&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Lookout, a popular Android security app, has &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/mobile/2011/10/where-is-the-iphone-malware-lo.php"&gt;released a version of their app for iOS&lt;/a&gt;.  The app works differently on iOS than on Android, primarily in that it doesn't detect and remove malware.  Dan explains the other differences, including the fact that the new app &lt;a href="readwriteweb.com/mobile/2011/10/where-is-the-iphone-malware-lo.php"&gt;wasn't possible until iCloud was released&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Everything that Lookout does is in the cloud - almost nothing runs on the device itself.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

         <title>Weekly Wrap-up:  Google Hands Over Wikileaks Volunteer's Gmail Data to U.S Government and more</title>
		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="weekly_wrapup-1.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/weekly_wrapup-1.png" width="150" height="150" /&gt;It was announced this week that a &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_hands_wikileaks_volunteers_gmail_data_to_us.php"&gt;Wikileaks volunteer's Gmail data&lt;/a&gt;, including his IP address and his contacts list, was handed over to the U.S. Government upon request.  This, plus &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/10/why-fsf-founder-richard-stallm.php"&gt;FSF founder Richard Stallman's final (we hope) insensitive blow to the memory of Steve Jobs&lt;/a&gt;, are our top news stories this week at ReadWriteWeb.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the jump you'll find more of this week's top news stories on some of the key topics that are shaping the Web - &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;Location&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/location/"&gt;App Stores&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/real-time-web/"&gt;Real-Time Web&lt;/a&gt; - plus highlights from some of our six channels. Read on for more.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Top Stories of the Week&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Google complied with a request from the U.S. Government and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_hands_wikileaks_volunteers_gmail_data_to_us.php"&gt;handed over the IP address and contacts list of Jacob Appelbaum&lt;/a&gt;, a WikiLeaks volunteer and developer for Tor.  Appelbaum's ISP, Sonic.net, attempted to fight the order, but in the end, also complied.  According to Google's Transparency Report, the company received 4,601 user data requests from the U.S. government in the second half of 2010, complying with 94%.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our own Joe Brockmeier called for a new voice to lead the Free Software Foundation after reading &lt;a href="http://readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/10/why-fsf-founder-richard-stallm.php"&gt;Richard Stallman's controversial post after the death of Steve Jobs&lt;/a&gt;.  From Joe's post, "It's unseemly to wish away those we do not agree with. What Stallman is saying, in essence, is that his ideals of free software can only compete with what users want from computing products when they're less attractive."&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At 56, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/enterprise/2011/10/what-steve-meant-back-then.php"&gt;Steve Jobs rocked our world&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/steve_jobs_web_tributes.php"&gt;his death was felt from Silicon Valley to Bahrain&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;p&gt;On a brighter note, this week we learned that &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/facebook_is_as_big_as_the_internet_of_2004.php"&gt;Facebook is as Big as the Internet of 2004&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;p&gt;Overshadowed this week was the launch of the iPhone 4S.

         <title>Weekly Wrap-up: Google Plus, Facebook, Kindle Fire, Wikpedia and More...</title>
		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt="weekly_wrapup-1.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/weekly_wrapup-1.png" width="150" height="150" /&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_plus_traffic_went_up_1269_last_week.php"&gt;Opening Google Plus to everyone &lt;/a&gt;gave them a tremendous traffic boost.  With a 1269% increase in visits, Plus traffic increased to 15 million U.S visits, up from 1.1 million the week before.  That news, plus &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/the_new_facebook_3_major_implications.php"&gt;Facebook's re-design&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/amazon_announces_the_kindle_fire_tablet.php"&gt;the Kindle Fire launch&lt;/a&gt; and a look at a &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/wikipedia_unveils_probably_the_coolest_qr_thingy_e.php"&gt;very cool Wikipedia QE addition&lt;/a&gt;, rounds out our top stories this week at ReadWriteWeb.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the jump you'll find more of this week's top news stories on some of the key topics that are shaping the Web - &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/tag/google+plus"&gt;Google Plus&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/tag/facebook"&gt;Facebook&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/tag/kindle+fire"&gt;Kindle Fire&lt;/a&gt; - plus highlights from some of our six channels. Read on for more.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Top Stories of the Week&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This week's &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_plus_traffic_went_up_1269_last_week.php"&gt;Google Plus traffic win&lt;/a&gt; was a favorite of ReadWriteWeb readers.  Contrasting that to &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/the_new_facebook_3_major_implications.php"&gt;Facebook's re-design&lt;/a&gt;, which also garnered much attention, shows you the impact of this rivalry for social networking domination.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Wikipedia also impressed this week with a &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/wikipedia_unveils_probably_the_coolest_qr_thingy_e.php"&gt;very cool QR implementation&lt;/a&gt;.  Take a photo of a QR code and you'll be automatically routed to a linked mobile Wikipedia entry about the object, in your language.  As ReadWriteWeb Lead Writer, Marshall Kirkpatrick said, "I dare you to find a cooler example of QR codes in action than QRPedia."  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Amazon announced their Wi-Fi only, 7-inch tablet, &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/amazon_announces_the_kindle_fire_tablet.php"&gt;the Kindle Fire&lt;/a&gt;, this week.  The $199 device is full-color, backlit and weighs 14.6 ounces.  While it may not be an &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/why_the_kindle_fire_is_no_ipad_killer.php"&gt;iPad killer&lt;/a&gt;, as one ReadWriteWeb reader &lt;a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/big_question_answered_who_is_the_intended_market_f.php#comment-322508252"&gt;pointed out in the comments&lt;/a&gt;, Netflix may be in for some serious competition once this thing arrives.  Look for the KIndle Fire to ship on November 15.&lt;/p&gt;
