"I will follow you. You will follow me.All the days and nights that we know will be." Oh Phil Collins, you balding seer of online social networking. How could you have possibly known that thirty years after Genesis released ...And Then There Were Three... a band of raging Twitterati would be anguishing over who to twit and who to qwit? OK -- technically speaking, Mike Rutherford wrote the lyrics to "Follow You Follow Me" and ...

Have you seen this one? I was catching up on my favorite blogs when I saw this over at Verdino's. This is a mind blowing video. More brands need to see this video! Especially those who do not think that their consumers actually participate in a form of social media. (yes they are still out there) This video was created by a team of FB engineers during an in-house "hack-a-thon".What is amazing is the amount ...

This video started cropping up on Facebook and in a TechCrunch post over the weekend, then appeared in a Mashable post this morning. Created by a team of FB engineers during an in-house "hackathon", it mashes person-to-person activity data with geo data to show just how much 'real time' social interaction happens on Facebook every second. The end result is a NASA-style glimpse of the Earth from space, traversed by a pretty lively set of ...

The Palestinian Authority has placed a full-page advert in Israel's Hebrew newspapers to promote an Arab peace plan.

I haven't yet had a chance to blog this week, but I did want to give you something to read. So this post presents my chapter from the original Age of Conversation. A lot has changed in my life, our country and our industries since I wrote it close to a year-and-a-half ago, and in some ways it comes across as naive and a bit starry-eyed, but I hope you'll still find something of value ...

'The massive central door in the side of Noah's Ark was opened the first crowd of curious townsfolk to behold the wonder. Of course, it's only a replica of the biblical Ark , built by Dutch Creationist Johan Huibers as a testament to his faith in the literal truth of the Bible. The ark is 150 cubits long, 30 cubits high and 20 cubits wide. That's two-thirds the length of a football field and as ...

第四届中文网志年会要开幕了，就这周星期六和星期天。据我说知，连岳、安替、长平这些如雷灌耳的大牛都会来参加网志年会，传说中牛逼哄哄的和菜头也会来演讲一个题目叫《网络内容的真实性分析》，我晕，和菜头的照片在网上都没出现过，我觉得应该先分析一下和菜头的真实性先。和菜头和谷歌公司合伙谋杀了我70美元google adsence广告费。 最详细的年会日程安排在这里，我还会主持一个《无墙电脑—无障碍访问互联网》，欢迎大家报名参加。我弄了一个在线报名表，报名表上方写的是 “本场演讲的内容包括在网络新条件下的情报获取和情报分析，相信会是有益有趣的经验分享过程。请提供报名信息，信息不详者拒绝入场。情报和信息的英文单词是同一个，周曙光自称是一件富有经验的情报分析专家，这个title看上去很酷，其实周曙光只是介绍自己如何处理纷繁复杂的信息的经验。每个人都需要面对大量信息作出对自己有益的判断，希望周曙光的经验能帮到你。周曙光有过多次引人注目的精准的情报分析经验，并成功综合利用各类信息作出准确判断，用事件营销来推销自己。” 欢迎大家报名参加我主持的小会议哦，欢迎任何电视台记者来拍摄，如果有观众怕被拍到，请戴上面具，如V怪客面具。 我对网志年会最期望的还是玩杀人游戏，据说北风自称是高手，不过，陈亮说他不是高手，陈亮说我是杀人游戏中的高手，我觉得能约一些最聪明的人一起玩杀人游戏，是一件很过瘾的事。有心一起玩杀人游戏的，短信给我13467668333报名哦。 传说中的光棍节那天，我上了5361次火车，才花49元就坐长沙坐到了广州。早上五点半的时候，到达广州，然后打电话到7天连锁酒店沙河店问了路线，于是从广州火车站坐257到濂泉路口站下。下次拍了一张照片，也许对星期五来广州的其他网志年会的参加者有帮助。 我下公车后，于是又打电话问路，结果接电话的男孩子害死我了，让我走反方向了。后来打电话问清楚了，于是过马路后顺着车流往回走（往西），过白云山牌坊而不入，再前行一百米到达沙河7天连锁酒店。不是网上付款不给77元一天的优惠，上网付款时，却被告知没有77元的优惠房，再度气死，我打电话质问前台为何网上的相关链接并没告知哪些情况下不能获得77元的优惠。明天再问个究竟，如果再拿“十多个优惠房”来敷衍我，不肯告知具体每天几间优惠房的话，我明天就不住这里了，一天要花149元，对我来说太奢侈了。 我洗了澡，去楼下花12元洗了衣服，烘干。然后睡到下午两点多，再约了一个女孩子见面，跟她在水荫路附近的麦当劳只聊了半个小时，她就被通知要上火车了。 然后去岗顶找苏更生，先在百脑汇看了一会儿WII游戏机，等她下班一起吃饭聊天。结果我拿艾未未给我的陶瓷瓜子出来炫耀时，被她抢了，结果被她磨了我几个小时才要回来九颗，最终还是拿走一颗，说是玩五天就还给我。我先不说她的糗事了，如果五天不把艾未未牌陶瓷瓜子还给我，我就去豆瓣网上宣扬她的糗事，为了陶瓷瓜子，我什么都做得出，哼。 晚上回到酒店的路上，听司机说重庆的士司机罢工让广州的交通局的营运车辆管理部门答应下月降低管理费，看来罢工是有益的。 回到沙河的7天连锁酒店，拍几张实景照片。对了，我带了三十来件五颜六色的T恤，我会在年会期间摆地摊来募捐，募捐方式是，捐40元以上的朋友可以自选一件印有我头像的纪念T恤，捐款不设找赎会不会让人反感？ 我知道我这是变相销售，请走过路过的人多多包涵：）我还要去德国玩一个星期，我需要更多的路费让我走得更远：）据说年会还有其他创意活动，如现场版画展览、O'reily 图书拍卖 、广州木棉剧团 、年会主题书法布袋、网志年会签名T恤现场拍卖。 桌子不是可移动的，而是一块靠墙的板子，上面有电视机和热水器，还有一个开通路由模式的华为的ADSL MODEM，里面内置了ADSL帐号可得到公网IP，进入http://192.168.1.1 的密码和用户名都是admin，打电话到前台确认了，7天连锁酒店沙河店的每个房间都有ADSL modem,接上网线就可以通过DHCP获得IP地址来上网，网速有保障，今天上网用 gmail 的videochat 聊天可得到很流畅的网速，年会时也许可以用Videochat和詹膑的奇遇咖啡馆连线做现场直播。 捐助我不等于赞助Tor。 推广TOR，自由访问网络 http://tor.zuo.la/ © Zola | CC | 沙发还在？ | 国外订阅 | 国内订阅 | 常见问题 | 赞助方式 | Tor

Correrria de fim de ano! Ô, inferno! Existe algum lugar do mundo que eu possa fugir dessas decorações, comemorações e cinismo? Quero passar um dezembro ao lado de amigos, jogada na cama, tendo orgasmos incríveis, bebendo muito, como se hoje fosse o último dia dos tempos! Maaaas, como isso não ocorre, volto a realidade e estou aqui, dando um tempo nas preparações da minha aula de alemão de amanhã - adoro dia de aplicar prova! ...

When looking at the promise of new media channels, many marketers still seem to fall back on the square-peg-round-hole routine. They attempt to force-fit tired, old ad models into next generation marketing opportunities that demand new approaches and, in doing so, alienate consumers and deliver questionable results for their companies. You know probably already know what this looks like -- fake corporate blogs instead of proper and personalized blogger relations, MySpace homepage takeovers instead of ...

As media called the presidential race on Tuesday, Americans fired off text messages at a record pace. AT&T today reported that in the hour following the announcement, text messaging traffic across its network surged about 44 percent - the highest spike in company history. Tuesday night’s jump in text messaging volume smashed previous spikes in text messaging reported by AT&T. For example, the peak transactions per second following Tuesday’s announcement was significantly higher than the ...

I guess my Wesleyan University commie-sympathizer pink socks are showing today, but I love this video. Mankind Is No Island is a short film that explores a global social issue using nothing more than a mobile phone, found typography and a simple soundtrack. Last month it took home the big prize at Tropfest NY, the world's largest short film festival. Social significance aside, Mankind is yet another demonstration of the democratization of the tools we ...

Hundreds of thousands of people are fleeing the civil war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Now France's Foreign Minister Bernard Couchner has called for 1,500 European soldiers to be deployed to the crisis region. Europe's press questions whether an EU military mission could indeed help the situation in the Congo.
