Meine YouTube Favorites haben ihr Maximum von 650 erreicht.... Mehr geht nicht, sagen die von YouTube. Her mit einer neuen Lösung, sage ich. Naja, das aktuelle Widget auf der rechten Seite ist noch frisch bestückt. Da spielt ein Astronaut Schlagzeug, George W. wird mit Schuhen beworfen, die Hobbymasters machen Kindern Angst und Musik ist auch dabei. Geht für heute noch.

A big experiment involving 14 chairs coming up at the 25th Chaos Communication Congress (27-29 December, Berliner Congress Centre, Berlin, Germany)

CCC "The Open Attendee Meta-Data (OpenAMD) system and SocioPatterns.org will merge RFID technology with social networking to create live visualizations based on people's locations and interests. For only €10, over a thousand conference attendees can upgrade their badges to participate in a real life incarnation of Harry Potter's "Marauder's Map."

PEBKAC is an acronym which stands for "Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair". The phrase is used by computer experts as a humorous way to describe user errors.

Internet, Du bist zu langsam!

Unternehmen sollen so massiv Kosten sparen und flexibler werden. "

Any opinions? Does it take longer to load or something?

Twenis: "We hijack innocent tweets, subject them to our patent pending penisization process by replacing certain words with 'penis', and republish it for your entertainment. We find it funny."

Computerworld has the new commercial for Microsoft Windows. See video inside the story. I find it funny!

Microsoft explains Seinfeld-Windows TV ad: just a 'teaser'

Philipp Lenssen writes "Google announced their very own browser project called Google Chrome — an announcement in the form of a comic book drawn by Scott McCloud, no less. Google says Google Chrome will be open source, include a new JavaScript virtual machine, include the Google Gears add-on by default, and put the tabs above the address bar (not below), among other things.

See the comic and more over here!

And I thought that sending people virtual Star Wars Action Figures on Facebook is a waste of time...!

Wired: The last thing we probably need is something else to distract us on Facebook, but let's now welcome the Dungeons & Dragons: Tiny Adventures app to help hack away at our daily productivity.

If you work in IT or you just like the "IT-Crowd" on TV and you're able to turn your computer off and on again: you will love this short film (10 minutes) - The Website is Down: Sales Guy vs. Web Dude.

Wow, this looks really cool!

Interesting post over at Tim O'Reilly's Radar: "We're collectively working on an Internet Operating System, and that it will ultimately look more like Unix than it looks like Windows. That is, it will be an aggregate of best of breed tools produced by an army of independent actors, all playing by the same rules so that those tools work together to produce a whole greater than the sum of the parts.

While they [Microsoft] are locked in penis envy, all the really cute girls are going out with startups :-)"

Techcrunch.com found out some interesting things you should know about : "How much are your friends worth? That is the question behind the big debate going on around social networks and data portability. In the last ten days, Facebook, Google, and MySpace have all announced ways to let people access their data (including friends lists) from other sites, except that what they are really trying to do is erect new walled gardens by positioning themselves as the primary repository of that personal and social data. This is valuable data and none of the big players want to cede any more of it than is necessary, which is why Facebook banned Google from tapping into its members’ social data.

But here’s a little secret. All of this data is already leaking out in ways that Facebook and other social networks can hardly control. "

Basicthinking.de: "Lässt Google seine Kunden in die Abmahnfalle laufen? Klar ist, dass es unklar ist, wie und wann man Screens von Google Earth machen kann.(...) Obwohl also Google dazu auffordert, Kartenmaterial aus GMaps auf seiner Seite einzubinden, dazu gar eine eigene Funktion anbietet, müssen kommerzielle Seite davon die Finger lassen!!"

Since I'm still working on "that other online community project", this one made my night!

The top 10 IT disasters of all time...

Ich finde es bedenklich, dass "once Twine has some information, it starts to analyze it and automatically sort it into categories that include the people involved, concepts discussed, and places, organizations, and companies."

The New York Times about the "$100 laptop" : In November, you’ll be able to buy a new laptop that’s spillproof, rainproof, dustproof and drop-proof. It’s fanless, it’s silent and it weighs 3.2 pounds. One battery charge will power six hours of heavy activity, or 24 hours of reading. The laptop has a built-in video camera, microphone, memory-card slot, graphics tablet, game-pad controllers and a screen that rotates into a tablet configuration.

And this laptop will cost $200.

The computer, if you hadn’t already guessed, is the fabled “$100 laptop” that’s been igniting hype and controversy for three years. It’s an effort by One Laptop Per Child (laptop.org) to develop a very low-cost, high-potential, extremely rugged computer for the two billion educationally underserved children in poor countries."
