BlogDay 2009

Blog Day 2009You know the drill, right? In ce ma priveste, cele 5 bloguri pe care le-as recomanda anul asta sunt urmatoarele:

  • Ariesami (Fiindca scrie fain despre chestii interesante din Japonia.)
  • Incze Klara (Fiindca imi place, pur si simplu.)
  • In The Game of Madness (E blogul unei mici companii suedeze care a produs un joc supertare – Penumbra. Doar ca nu e scris ca un blog “de companie”. Pe mine m-a captivat destul de mult in ultima vreme.)
  • Philosophy of Information (Autorul blogului e Luciano Floridi, un filosof de la Oxford care scrie de multi ani pe teme de genul AI, computer ethics, information technology s.a.m.d.)
  • Mihnea Maruta (Fiindca are posturi de foarte buna calitate, dupa parerea mea.)

Sex anal la 11 ani

Asta ca sa i-o iau inainte lui Arhi. 🙂 Dar adevarul e ca am vazut niste comentarii atat de agresive (“daca as fi tac-su – as bate-o de i-ar sari creierii pe pereti”, “mi-e frica ca o sa iasa un specimen dasta si voi fi nevoit sa-l impusc sau sa-l spanzur”) la el, incat am vrut sa aflu mai multe lucruri.

Asa ca am pornit pe firul povestii. Arhi trimite la un post de pe un alt blog, unde e pus cu copy-paste un mesaj de pe forumul Desprecopii.com, mesaj care, la randul sau, e format din niste citate (scoase din context si insotite de comentarii nashpa), preluate de pe Cool Girl. Pagina originala a disparut, dar am gasit ceva in cache-ul de la Google (LE: Uitasem, acolo puteti vedea un exemplu bun pentru cum nu trebuie moderat un forum.).

Soooo, hai sa citim impreuna cateva fragmente (sry, sunt NSFW):

Va plac jocurile cu litere?

Mie mi s-a parut funny asta:

Poate fi jucat cu cuvinte in engleza, germana, franceza, spaniola, italiana si rusa. Are si multiplayer mode, dar mie nu mi-a mers. Iar daca vreti sa va jucati, pur si simplu cu niste litere impreuna cu alti oameni, puteti incerca asta.

p.s.: Daca mai stiti alte jocuri cool cu litere, spuneti-mi si mie, plz! 🙂

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.

p.s.: Yes, I would like to hear your suggestions! 🙂

Daca ti-ai putea trimite un mesaj tie insuti in viitor, ce ti-ai spune?

Ma gandesc la ceva de felul asta:

Ce i-ai spune persoanei in care o sa te transformi peste zece ani? Ce-ai vrea sa-i transmiti?

p.s.: Daca va bate gandul sa va trimiteti un mail pe care sa-l cititi peste mai multi ani, puteti folosi asta sau asta.
p.p.s.: Daca vi se pare mai interesanta intrebarea “Ce ti-ai spune tie insuti de acum zece ani, daca ai putea?”, e ok. 🙂

LE: Iar leapsa merge la… Oanamarrria, Adi si Cezar.

Iar premiul Quill Worthy merge la…

Bine, in cazul asta formularea “merge la” s-ar putea sa nu fie cea mai potrivita, fiindca bannerul castigatorului o sa ramana, de fapt, pe blogul asta (il veti putea vedea pe coloana din dreapta timp de o luna).

Inainte de a anunta premiul doresc sa spun ca le multumesc tuturor concurentilor (roxana, Mahalagiul, kolonum, Ana, Buciuman si mariana), precum si tuturor celor care au urmarit aceasta mica provocare si au votat.

De altfel, prezenta la vot la acest concurs a fost deosebit de ridicata, intrucat au votat 87,5% dintre cei care aveau drept de vot. 🙂 Iar acum a sosit momentul anuntarii castigatorului.

Jurnalisti, bloggeri si facatori de reclame

Prima poveste. Cica o tanara din romania a murit electrocutata in cada in timp ce incerca sa scrie pe Twitter. Asta dupa niste jurnalisti austrieci (pe care ii citeaza si Eduard). Stirea reala e de fapt alta (asa cum observa si Boioglu) si n-are nici o treaba cu Twitter.

Chiar, nu s-a intrebat nimeni de ce nu apare nicaieri presupusul cont de Twitter al fetei? In fine,… se pare ca si prin alte parti exista jurnalisti incompetenti. 🙁
