flooz date 2004, the story thus far
So I'm catching up on a much needed blog transfer of ideas from one blogger to myself and thus what have I found? Well first off I really dig this song, Natacha Atlas - Rah, go get that track will ya. Good stuff. Currently listening to Space Lounge Radio. Anyways back to the blogs.
First up we come across Silicon's Agenda Setters. What I'm guessing is a who's who of whos who's to be. Check it. Then we hop skip and jump into Wired's article on India being the future innovator for 3rd world countries. Which i find interesting actually cause design research wise I don't see that happening. Why? Cause we have a few over seas gigs coming up and the while the research is happening overseas the innovation base is still the US. So I dunno, i think sure for specfic 3rd world products, and what exactally is that in this great age of mass globalization happening? I mean the trend watching conference i just attended unleashed the idea and proof positive notion that we're not divided we're becoming closer and closer, products, advertising, etc, offers and value propositions etc. I suppose this article isnt talking about that directly persay. No doubt India is a force though. We're seeing more and more interest in research from them.
Another excellent track: Saint Germain - What You Think About.
Damn thats a sexy sweet track full of seculant beats baby, thats a track to take home to mama, yo sista this track be for you and me. Thats a track you just crank as loud as you can and hang. Mmmmmmm M! Good tunage.
PASTA, why, I don't know. I haven't got it. I suppose its good, or even delicious.
I really dig reading Venture Captial blogs. Its always curious to me, who's getting funding and for what and why and whats the promise of that vs this and them and those other folks. VC is so... damn interesting. Mobile media is the next great wave to surf me thinks. I mean its only gonna get bigger and bigger and frickin bigger. Digital camras will die off as far as consumers go and it will it all just be yer dang phone. We'll do all kinda of location based gaming, we'll get ads, tv, soaps, reality shows, games, its like growin like mad right now. Hmmm Netblue?
Pretty cool read on billionare Richard Brandson of Virgin, Gonzo baby..
Nice airfare searcher...
Blog fears?
"..the biggest fear about blogging is an uncontrolled message slipping out. The use of the word 'uncontrolled' is telling and suggests a paranoid corporate outlook. Blogging is not going to mean that previously responsible employees are going to suddenly reveal all to the world, without thought to the consequences. Whistle-blowers have always existed and have nothing to do with the emergence of weblogs. It's very simple, blogging is one element of Citizen's Media, and is a key component of consumer control. It's evolving quickly, offering inspiration to many people and creating exciting, energetic communications. "
Hmmm be afraid people, BE AFRAID. I'm actually trying to get some co-workers to blog more. I wish they would really. Its a good release. Blog more. I've been pushing for a Lextant blog for awhile now, someday it will happen. But until then, Blog people. Better yet get in touch with the blogexplosion baby ooo ya.. woooha!
How the BusH was won! A tasty read, pretty dead on as well.
Awww ya baby, my phone is my cash.
I kinda feel like everything I saw in anime is coming true. All the little bits that is. I mean aliens, well they were already here. But you get a good taste for whats to come watching anime, well old macross and mecha shows I think ya do. Fom holographic digital signage thats just around the corner to the next leap in mobility technology etc. Its actually fun to go back and see animation flicks that protray advances in technology that have already been achieved. Like to see if they got it right when they were fillin in the background with whatever, did they get it right. Cause its not like they focused on that notion of the animation, that aspect, no they were making backgrounds, concepting to concept what it may be like in just a fraction of a second, a few frames in the background as the bad guy ran thru the burning assembly complex. I still think macross, cowboy bebop and akira when i think the future of digital signage in stores to come. Some of its almost here really. Holographic projectors are 12k last time i checked. Ok just that one, and I gotta find the link.
Well its 7pm and much todo. My FTP is finished and the game is afoot. Tomorrow i'm off the grid in worky land so you flooze kittens will have to wait until next time. Soon the local boys will be rompin around Norrath again as Everquest 2 has arrived to suck our souls into some new crackdom social experiment where we will willing kill snake after snake for a few new experience points rather veg in front of the tv or read a few dozen books, that being me that is. I've told myself you can only EQ2 if read at least one of yer damn books a month.
Oh ya which brings me to So Yesterday, a blog I caught on friday mentioned it. Looked like a good read. I'll check it.
