...overall search traffic. The comparable figures for Google are 31% and 20%. If Google soon shuts down its Chinese search engine (Google.cn) - as most analysts believe it will - Baidu will grab even more. Dick Wei, senior analyst at JPMorgan Securities in Hong Kong, estimates that if Google loses a quarter of its China traffic, Baidu will reap a 6% gain in revenue; the gain would be 12% if the number of eyeballs logging onto Google shrinks 50%. For the last full year completed, 2008, Baidu generated $468.8 million in revenue and earned $153.6 million. Though they haven't yet reported...
...hits from one decade to another. In real dollars, none of the superhits of the past decade - not The Dark Knight nor any movie with pirates, hobbits, wizards or spider-men - make the list of the 25 top-grossing domestic films. Titanic is the only picture of the past quarter-century in the top 10. (It's sixth.) Cameron's new film would have to take in some $950 million in today's dollars just to match his last one. Avatar is barely more than a third of the way toward reaching the real-dollar champ, Gone With the Wind...
...Dear John's eminence will be more fleeting, but it certainly escaped the ignominious-flop status of the weekend's other wide release, From Paris with Love. That John Travolta spy-action film earned only a quarter of Dear John's take. Another burly espionage melodrama, the Mel Gibson vehicle Edge of Darkness sank over 60% in its second frame. Meanwhile, the male-oriented Legion and The Book of Eli fell into the bottom half of the top 10, behind the frilly Kristen Bell romantic comedy When in Rome...
...Consumer Electronics Show. Under Project Infinity, the company's video-on-demand views have more than doubled, to 14 billion cumulative views, over the past two years. Internet speeds have tripled. Comcast's online movie and television-show choices jumped from 3,700 in the first quarter of 2008 to 19,100 by the end of 2009. The company is changing, so Comcast feels the name should change with it. "At its core, Xfinity is infinite potential," says David Watson, executive vice president of operations at Comcast Cable. "The pace of innovation put us in this moment...
Comcast doesn't seem to need a rebranding. Fueled by higher Internet and phone revenue and a onetime tax gain, company earnings more than doubled, to $955 million, in the fourth quarter. "Here's one thing we do know," says Tim Calkins, a marketing professor at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. "Comcast is going to spend a huge amount of money to get that brand to mean what it wants it to mean." Here's another thing we know. Shareholders should be asking...
