Missing Labeling of Online Ads |
 |
One of the most crucial issues in on-line advertising is the blurring of the line between editorial content and ads. Unlike on TV and in the print media, where guidelines on the labeling of advertisements, which shall enable the customer to distinguish between editorial and ads, exist, similar conventions have not yet evolved for Internet content. Labeling of online advertisement up to now has remained the rare exception, with only few sites (e.g.  http://www.orf.at) explicitly indicating non-editorial content.

First typewriter patent, 1713
In 1714 Henry Mill got granted a patent for his idea of an "artificial machine or method" for forgery-proof writing, but not before 1808 the first typewriter proven to have worked, was built by Pellegrino Turri for his visually impaired friend, the Countess Carolina Fantoni da Fivizzono. In 1873 commercial production of typewriters began.
