What will it take to make news standards
matter?
When it comes to news, time is definitely
money. Studies of usage patterns for news
databases at LexisNexis show a consistent
pattern: news is hot when it is initially
released and then falls off steeply - but
not to zero! The lesson is clear: you have
a short window for extracting the economic
value from the news if you want to be able
to deliver the social benefits of a news
archive.
Standards that get adopted by technology
vendors, news organizations, publishers
and syndicators can produce orders of magnitude
improvements in time-to-market and reliability,
with increased opportunities for innovative
products to boot. Standards that don't won't
help us. What can the standards groups do
to ensure that the work they produce is
adopted, not ignored.

NewsML Implementation in Japan
Why NewsML has fascinated Japanese news
media? Why NewsML is widely diffused in
Japan? We speak about the diffusion of NewsML
in Japan and the reasons by introducing
some implementation cases.
What kind of role has NSK, the Japan Newspaper
Publishers & Editors Association, played?
NSK NewsML Team consists of over 70 people
form 41 newspapers, news agencies and vendors.
The team started their work in September
2000, when was just before NewsML was released
by IPTC, with the aim of adopting a new
format for news. After several months' discussion
on the requirements of the format in parallel
with studying NewsML, we found NewsML is
the very worth considering. August 2001
NSK released guidelines when media use NewsML
in Japan.
NSK holds exhibition called Japan Newspaper
Production Show every two year. We also
show how NewsML was implemented in systems
exhibited in this November's show. For the
case study of a standard diffusion we speak
how we spread NewsML as well as problems
we encountered during the process.
