Cam slaba miscarea prin blegosfera romaneasca

Urla tot internetul ca o sa iasa Google Chrome OS. Pe-aici primprejur n-am vazut sa scrie despre asa ceva decat Piticu. Ok, tot e ceva.

Alta faza. Lui Cabral i se intampla o poveste supernashpa si scrie despre ea pe blog. Cati “bloggeri de categoria A” reactioneaza? Fix unul – Vis Urat.

Sa mai adaug ca pe multe bloguri destul de cunoscute din tara n-am mai gasit, in ultima vreme, informatii folositoare, povesti frumoase sau idei interesante, ci doar ura, incrancenare si bascalie?

Am invatat un joc!

La mare l-am invatat (de la Castravete). E foarte simplu. Oamenii se aseaza in cerc, dupa aia cineva spune un cuvant (sau o expresie) iar persoana urmatoare trebuie sa spuna foarte repede (si fara sa se cenzureze) primul cuvant care ii vine in minte cand aude ce-a spus cel de dinainte si asa mai departe.

Ma gandeam ca poate fi jucat si pe net. Nu putem sta in cerc, dar asta nu conteaza. Regulile sunt astea: primul comentator scrie un cuvant; urmatorul comentator scrie primul cuvant care-i vine in minte cand citeste ce-a scris primul comentator; urmatorul scrie primul cuvant care-i vine in minte cand citeste ce-a scris al doilea comentator si asa mai departe, pana ne plictisim.

p.s.: Oricine poate lasa cate comentarii vrea, dar numai daca ultimul comentariu (cel la care raspunde) e scris de alta persoana.

Un… chestionar

L-am primit de la Draw for Joy. Arata asa:

Luati cartea cea mai la indemana, deschideti la pagina 18 si scrieti aici al 4-lea rand:
“caci numim interpretare la cithara actul citharedului in general, dar interpretare desavarsita actul citharedului desavarsit” (Aristotel – Etica Nicomahica)

Habarnam 2 update

Gata, am reorganizat un pic pagina principala a initiativei cu lectura povestilor pe net si am facut o pagina speciala pentru Habarnam 2. Si am inlocuit capitolele audio din Aventurile lui Habarnam puse pe Trilu cu fisiere gazduite aici.

Am observat ca mai sunt si alte povesti care au fost puse pe Trilu si care nu mai pot fi ascultate acum, dar nu stiu cand o sa am timp sa fac inlocuirile necesare. Oricum, majoritatea apar pe primul cd, iar imaginea cd-ului poate fi downloadata de la Christ Saddler.

Eu personal nu as mai pune nimic niciodata pe Trilu, dar fiecare face dupa cum vrea, bineinteles. In orice caz, cand e gata inregistrarea va rog sa-mi trimiteti si mie fie un link catre fisierul in format mp3, fie fisierul. Va spuneam ca puteti incerca sa-i faceti un upload pe m.stefanov.go.ro/gramo, numai ca intre timp site-ul acela s-a inchis (datorita unui nene spammer). Dar puteti sa-mi trimiteti fisierul pe mail sau pe twitter (cu senduit, de pilda).

Exploring the Twitterverse: Twittermap 2.1

Some of the links in my previous Twittermap did not work anymore, so this is an update. I have also tried to cut down redundancies and to focus more on simplicity and usability.

Remember, this is not intended to be an extensive list of Twitter apps, classified by some arcane pseudo-scientific criteria (if you need something like that, you can go here). I have tried to select the most useful Twitter related sites / apps and to order them in a logical manner (these are, in fact, the things that I actually use in relation to Twitter).

Yes, you must do this first! There is no other way. :) You might want to look around and see for yourself what Twitter is all about, before posting your tweets. You can use this to monitor tweets containing certain words or expressions in real time. Search for multiple words and see the results mapped on Venn diagrams. Explore the visual side of Twitter. Let Twitter tell you a story. Watch tweets in the public timeline mapped on a 3D model of the Earth. This is a bit buggy, so you might want to use Twittervision instead. Create some semantic maps and see the relations between two words as they were used on Twitter. There is no point in posting on Twitter if nobody reads you, right? So, if you want to let others know that you exist, you should start by following them. Quite useful for finding twitters from your location (or sharing your interests). After you have some followers you could use Twubble to find more people to follow. Follow Mr. Tweet and he'll also recommend you some interesting people to follow. And now let's get to work! :) Since you have only 140 signs for every tweet, you should use a link shortener if you want to include a link in your message. Besides being the most popular link shortener, Bit.ly also allows you to track your links. After tweeting for a while and getting used to it you might want to learn more about all this Twitter thing. The most popular blog dedicated to Twitter. I find it quite informative. Apart from answering to replies and direct messages, you also have to do some maintenance work now and then. This offers you a smart way to maintain your list of followers and friends. This is useful to get rid of potential spammers and trolls. You can use this to backup your tweets. If you want to personalize your Twitter page a bit, you might find this useful. At this point, it is natural to be interested in the results of your activity on Twitter. Here you can watch some statistics about your followers and find out about your Twitter Rank. Here are more stats about your posts and your relations with other twitters. This could also be useful to measure your reach and authority. After being a regular Twitter user, you might want to discover some ways to expand your Twitter experience and some new uses for Twitter. This is the site that I use to access Twitter from my mobile. Here you'll find the most comprehensive Twitter apps database. This is the most popular site offering you a simple way to post pics on Twitter. Another site allowing you to post images on Twitter. I find it easyer to access from Slandr to post pics from my mobile phone. Here you can post any type of document (doc, ppt, xls, pdf, ps, txt etc.) up to 15 Mb on Twitter. You can also use this site to share large graphic files (up to 10 Mb) and videos (up to 25 Mb) on Twitter. I find this the coolest way to post my favourite songs on Twitter. You can use this to create some simple polls for your tweeple. Add an RSS feed to your Twitter account. Use this with caution and make sure you also post regular tweets on your account. This has a lot of useful informations on Twitter.
