Surrey developer Bob Cheema claims Surrey businessman Brian Young defamed him on social media A politically active Surrey developer who has been subject to allegations of corruption on social media can have his day in court, a BC Supreme Court judge ruled last Wednesday. Developer Bob Cheema’s defamation lawsuit against Surrey resident Brian Young can proceed, ruled Justice Heather MacNaughton, after Young applied for its dismissal by claiming Cheema was limiting his freedom of expression. The case centres around two political allies of Surrey Mayor Doug McCallum during the October 2018 election. Young and Cheema were both helping McCallum get elected but things went sour thereafter and Young began criticizing McCallum on Twitter, including allegations that Cheema held power over the mayor, particularly with respect to the city’s police force transition. MacNaughton had to weigh the public’s interest as to whether Young’s freedom of expression outweighed Cheema’s right to protect his reputation. MacNaughton’s ruling states there are reasonable grounds for Cheema to proceed with a trial.  “I am satisfied that Mr. Cheema has established, on a balance of probabilities, that the harm he has suffered or is likely to suffer as a result of Mr. Young’s expression is sufficiently serious…

In such a fragmented and competitive viewing environment, tools that can help broadcasters boost engagement with viewers are highly prized. IBC365 looks at some of the recent product launches that promise greater engagement. Viaccess-Orca: Xview+ will now be available on Android TV set-top boxes  ‘Content is king’ is the oft-used phrase chosen by many industry commentators when asked to summarise the dynamics of the media industry. And while compelling programming such as exclusive live sports or high-end original drama packed with Hollywood A-listers or tried and trusted favourites in the form of much-loved sitcoms will surely help to build audiences, such costly content may not be an option for all broadcasters and platforms. And, crucially, it may not be enough to ensure that viewers continue to return to and explore services. So, what can broadcasters do to drive deeper engagement with their viewers and ultimately leverage that engagement to boost revenue opportunities? With so many services and so much content on offer, one of the biggest challenges faced by viewers is choosing something to watch. For broadcasters, that means any way in which they can simplify sometimes fragmented experiences are likely to be welcomed, particularly when it comes to cross-screen viewing. Megacable, one of…

Marshfield couple Brendan and Elizabeth Coyne have always loved eating out and the South Shore - two passions that merged two years ago in the creation of their popular Instagram blog, Foodies South Shore.In the nearly two years since starting their Instagram blog, they've amassed over 2,200 followers looking for recommendations and scenic, food-centric pictures. "Every time we would go out on the South Shore, we would take pictures of the places and the food and ambience," Brendan said. "We would always describe what we were feeling and the essence of the places, and we just kept doing that and it turned into people noticing us."Posts on their page range from locations throughout the South Shore and from breweries, coffee shops, restaurants, bars and ice cream shops - all with the aim of celebrating local business, exposing more people to delicious offerings and supporting the community on the South Shore.Some of the couple's favorite spots include the Untold and Stellwagen breweries, Corner Cafe in Marshfield, The Jetty in Brant Rock, who they've partnered with for multiple giveaways, and coffee shops Seabird, in Cohasset, and Slacktide, in Marshfield. When COVID-19 hit, the restaurant industry was hit hard. "The pandemic put a damper on it, but…

Instagram likes are designed to be easily given and to be used liberally, but it's not as easy for users to look back at the posts they've liked. Likes on Instagram aren't just a way of giving props to someone for a post, they're also a record of what captures a user's imagination. Whether that's because a post is beautiful, funny, educational, or something else, it can be enjoyable — and, indeed, useful — for a user to look back at the posts they've liked. However, Instagram doesn't make that as easy as it might and users could easily think the option to do so simply isn't available. Likes have, of course, been a central feature of Instagram since it launched as a simple photo-sharing app in 2010. In addition to giving users a way to show their appreciation of posts by others, they provide a measure of how many people have liked a post. This metric is one way that brands and influencers determine the success of their activity on the platform. Instagram is considering hiding like counts from public view so as to put more of a focus on the content itself and to create a less pressurized…

In the last year, everything we thought we knew about work changed: how work is done, where work is done, what is essential and what isn’t. Just as technology has changed to meet the need, so too has the business networking platform LinkedIn. Since the beginning of the pandemic, LinkedIn has introduced several new features. Here are some of the highlights: Top among my favorites is the ability to record your name and if you are quick, a tagline or branding statement. This is especially helpful if you have an unusual name, one that is hard to pronounce, or one that has alternate pronunciations, although I am in favor of recording your name anyway. Doing so demonstrates that you are technically savvy. Perhaps because of the number of people accessing LinkedIn from mobile devices this option is currently only available from their mobile app. Here is how to get started. From the app, tap your profile picture, click View Profile. Tap the EDIT icon from your introduction card, Tap RECORD name pronunciation (or EDIT to delete or replace the previous recording). Tap and hold the RECORD button. Tap USE when you are satisfied with your recording. Tap SAVE. When recording,…
