Apple Claims Ownership of the Term ‘Pod’
Yahoo! News reports Apple Computer is claiming ownership of term pod on mobile devices and software, and is moving to protect the mark.
A Houston, Texas-based company by the name of Podcast Ready seems to be in Apple’s crosshairs. They offer a free piece of software called MyPodder for listening devices using the Windows Media Player from Microsoft, and are launching their iPod product on Thursday at the the Podcast and Portable Media Expo.
Details are found in an article with a dateline at the end of yesterday’s business day.
Why Rocky Mountain Voices?
Silicon Valley is hopping with new business activity. And so is Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Arizona, and Nevada. But the difference is there isn’t a good place to gather up and communicate all the activity. Enter Rocky Mountain Voices!
Rocky Mountain Voices will gather up exciting ideas, people, and businesses and drive the attention and awareness they deserve.
We selected “voices” because we want to start conversations through podcasting and blogs. Both of these mediums allow for a more engaging, interactive communication. We welcome feedback on anything you hear or read on Rocky Mountain Voices. We invite you to contact us and introduce yourself.
Finally, and this is big news, Rocky Mountain Voices has an exclusive partnership with PodTech.net to bring voices from our community to the Podtech network. This allows Rocky Mountain Voices to drive visibility for companies, people, and the rocky mountain business climate to a much larger audience of listeners and readers.
