 | Eric Johnson Tuck School Joost's Debut Singed by Firewalls Beet.TV has learned from a high-level industry source that the deployment of Joost has been delayed in large part by issues related to firewalls that block access. The problem with firewalls is not new, it's been discussed for sometime on Joost forums, but the roadblock highlights concerns about accessing P2P networks. This includes all sorts of organizations, businesses and college networks. While Joost is surely not a "Limewire" or some unsecured P2P protocol, it seems to be facing problems in penetrating the enterprise. Maybe it's the tarnished reputation of P2P? It's clearly a problem that needs to be resolved as more and more video is distributed through P2P. Beyond the barriers of corporate firewalls, seems like some ISP's including Comcast don't like certain P2P protocols. Last Friday I was up in New Hampshire at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business to interview Professor Eric Johnson, who heads the Glassmeyer/McNamee Center for Digital Studies. (That's McNamee as in Roger.) Dr. Johnson is an expert on P2P and network security. He testified in Congress last month about the issues related to inadvertent release of files via P2P. -- Andy Plesser Coming Clean: The Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth is a public relations client of Plesser Holland.

 | Paul Danos Public vs Private Nation's Top Business School Dean to Entrepreneurs on Exit Strategies: Big Companies Have a "Ton of Cash" so Think Strategic Partner The Wall Street Journal just came out with its annual rankings of business schools and the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth is ranked number one. The Tuck School is a client of my PR firm and we are delighted. Not only is the school a client, but my son Benjamin, who graduated Dartmouth College, attended a four-week boot camp this past August for college grads. Ben is close to getting a job offer -- thanks to Tuck -- details to follow :) I was up on Hanover, New Hampshire late last month where I interviewed Dean Paul Danos. We spoke about a number of economic issues including the battered private equity markets, regulation and the problems with IPO's and the opportunities for for entrepreneurs to "exit" their companies. Dean Danos says that many corporations have a "ton of cash" on their balance sheets and are looking for acquisitions for growth and market dominance. We have seen this time and again in Silicon Valley. This was demonstrated last week with Yahoo!'s acquisition of BuzzTracker. (Belated congrats to Kara Swisher for breaking this one.) And, there's another big acquisition by Yahoo today -- this one of Zimbra. For an indepth look the state of funding for Web 2.0 companies, check out this story from VentureBeat by Eric Eldon. -- Andy Plesser Leslie Stahl Throws Alan Greenspan Some Softballs Speaking about economics, here's Alan Greenspan interview on Sixty Mintues last night.
