J’ai en tête d’essayer d’utiliser le plus possible les ressources du web 2.0, mais je suis assez stressée car j’ai peur que ça ne fonctionne pas, ou que ce ne soit jamais assez. Mais en même temps, je découvre un monde : j’ai passé de longues heures à lire pleins de blogues sur les médias sociaux et à découvrir le plaisir d’avoir des trip d’ego sur le web (à mon avis c’est intrinsèque au 2.0). ...

Utilizada para crear algunos videos virales, Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger es probablemente la canción más famosa de Daft Punk. A inicios de año me había encontrado con el cover a capella y hoy me topo con un muy buen cover acústico, logrando lo que muchos pensaríamos como muy difícil: convertir una canción con samples por montones en una versión interpretable por humanos. » Seguir leyendo "Cover Acústico de Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger"

The Hackosis blog notes a contentious conversation thread between Linux creator Linus Torvalds and a programmer who finds that disabling the atime option, which writes a last-accessed time to every single file that's accessed by a Linux system, nets some significant performance improvements. If you don't use any defragmenting or mail-watching apps (like mutt) that rely on atime, you can at least try out disabling atime, and switch back if something goes wrong. Read on ...

You can get decent photos out of a standard, consumer-grade digital camera, but a little post-processing can turn them into fantastic wide-angle landscapes. You don't need to be one of those people who can explain the concept of lateral chromatic aberration to get truly eye-catching digital pictures. With a few shutter clicks and some free, cross-platform software, you can easily mesh standard digi-cam shots into true landscapes, fix one photo's deficiencies with another, and create ...

What is striking about the McCain campaign’s deplorable smear attack in which they label Rashid Khalidi as an anti-Semite, which Philip Giraldi and Glenn Greenwald have already discussed, is how unusually lazy it is. Of course, flinging such labels at political opponents is already very intellectually lazy and disreputable, but one expects a certain degree of polemical effort when the usual suspects set out to defame someone. You come to expect these sorts of smears ...

Linux often gets criticized by the ease-of-use crowd for making its users occasionally edit a text file to get something working. In the case of the nimble, endlessly extensible desktop monitor Conky, though, a text file is a great thing. You can changed the format, color, font, and output of what Conky shows you any way you want, and using some freely available tools, have Conky monitor your email, Google Calendar, local weather, music, and ...

On its face, a tool that gives you remote control over your jailbroken iPhone or iPod touch seems kind of pointless. If you're sitting at a computer already, why would you need to use your tiny touch screen computer? But take a moment to think of the things you could save time typing out—like built-up text messages and frustratingly non-syncing notes—as well as the ability to charge or play music while still using the software. ...
