Hey everyone, I'm having a YouTube contest to give away an NVIDIA e-GeForce 8800 GT
graphics card that i bought for $180 last year, for free! The contest is for the best
informative, promotional, or awareness video for anything i like or might be interested in. So, you
can pretty much do anything you want but some good topics include: Free Culture, Polyamory, Lojban,
Atheism, Ubuntu, Anarchism, Creative Commons, Free Software and Open Source, etc, etc.
I'd like to get new people involved with the YouTube community so if this ends up being your first
upload then bonus points to you! Also, uploading to The Internet
Archive and The Video Bay (if it's functional yet) is a
plus but completely optional. The only rules are:
- You must be subscribed to my YouTube channel and following my blog
- Your video must be licensed under a
CC-BY-SA license or freer like Kopimi and
- The video must be created for this contest so no old videos.
-
Don't worry about camera quality, being super-creative, or having fancy special video effects
because those things are nice but you really don't need them to make a good video. I'll be
judging based more on the content of the video than any of those things so really use whatever
you have whether it's a digital camera, crappy old webcam, or camera phone. I'm aiming for 50
video responses so you'll have a one in fifty chance of winning! The deadline will be August
3rd or until i get 50 responses, whichever one comes later. So, that's it. Start making videos!
Good luck, and I look forward to seeing them!

Image: Kosmoplovci, P3225504-procesor, from the
series “Fragments”
In June I traveled through southeastern Europe from Venice to Athens, where I’m looking
at art and blogging. Part three of the travelogue is about Belgrade, Serbia.
With a population of two million, Belgrade is twice as big as Zagreb, which is thrice as big as Ljubljana, but the sizes of these three cities have a
paradoxically inverse relationship to their cultural infrastructure, particularly at the
intersection of art and technology. While little Ljubljana had enough events to fill my schedule
for four days, Zagreb’s handful of galleries were in a summer slumber. But organizations
were actually there, even if hibernating, while Belgrade had nothing. Many attributed that to the
smaller country’s attempt to find a niche or a brand for itself in Europe’s crowded
contemporary art world. “Artists in Ljubljana were trying to position themselves away from
the context of ex- Yugoslavia,” said Maja Ciric, a Serbian curator. “I think it
happened as an act of security. Institutional plans to normalize new media as a discipline were
carried out to valorize the positive force of power, to show that the productivity of power is
realized through policies that allow for the formation of the individual.”
Image: Kosmoplovci, stills from Satelitska Stanica
Belgrade had a small but active demoscene in the 1990s, which gave rise to one of the most
interesting art collectives in the former Yugoslavia, Kosmoplovci (pronounced “kos-mo-PLOV-tsee”). The
name means something like astronauts or space sailors, and comes from a 1970s do-it-yourself
science and technology magazine that some demoscene friends found at a flea market in the early
‘90s. The members of Kosmoplovci are fond of rummaging through the past, and
their varied output—which includes internet works, videos, music, comics, and
books—usually involves allusion and found media. Satelitska Stanica is based on
an old 8mm film extolling a joint project with Japan to build a satellite station in a remote
Yugoslavian province; the reel was salvaged at a flea market and transferred to digital devices
with minimal interference. Marko
Kraljevic, the Turk-fighting hero of Serbian epics, appears in previews of 2D and 3D video
games that Kosmoplovci will probably never make. Self-aware makes public
footage from a broken webcam, primarily the bewildered faces of the camera’s owner and
repairman in the shop.
Recycling material follows from Kosmoplovci’s structure, where the four or five core
members regularly bring in a dozen or more “temporary” Kosmoplovci, who specialize in
specific media or channels of distribution (Aleksandar Opacic, for example, has a ragged, layered
style of drawing that defines Kosmoplovci’s comics). All their videos can be freely
downloaded, or have distinct online versions, while paper publications often get passed around to
friends. Their distribution systems put them outside markets and conservative institutional
systems; and while Igor, the collective’s de facto leader, said he does tech support for
cultural institutions in Serbia, which helps the group maintain a link to the establishment, he
spends just as much time on web sites for his drum-and-bass DJ friends.
Image: Nikola Tosic, Under Super Stupid Land
A couple of weeks before going to Belgrade I wrote to Nikola
Tosic—who specializes in posters and spare prose
pieces—with a request to meet and chat, and in a gesture of Balkan hospitality
he replied with an invitation to stay at his place for the duration of my visit. Tosic lives on
the outskirts of Belgrade, fitting for an artist who was active with Neen but keeps his distance from the local
scene. His artworks, which he tosses off when he’s not working as a designer or training
for triathlons, are deliberately marginal. A thank-you note to the internet’s creator and a
description of the human species
intended for aliens have clumsy graphics and a plain but quirky usage of English, which gives
them the poignancy of stories by a precocious child. Tosic also organizes ephemeral events, like
Let’s Meet in a Nice
Restaurant, a networking-as-art gathering that has happened in Milan, Istanbul, and
Transylvania. His current pet project is Triathlon
Team, which involves hosting and designing blogs for his favorite triathletes. The idea
of designating a team for a purely solitary sport, and trying to make humble triathletes the
subject of media attention, has the same dry, barely-there humor as his cartoonish pieces.
Image: Nikola Tosic, sticker for Internet
Pavilion
Carving art up by nations is always fraught with missteps. Geographic proximity makes it tempting
to draw similarities between Kosmoplovci and Tosic, though their paths haven’t crossed in
years and they have never collaborated. They have stronger analogues with DIY scenes and Neen,
respectively, than anything in their neighborhood. Still, local
conditions—namely, the absence of an institutional peer
network—has an affect on their choices; no one is telling them they
shouldn’t make art about triathlons or drum-and-bass. “Belgrade’s lack of a
real new media lab or institute makes it more free,” said Ciric, the curator.
“Because when new media works are produced they are a result of the pure individual
creativity.”

Acrobat.com from Adobe is an online suite of applications, some of which are
still in Beta, offering online word processing, PDF conversion, file storage and sharing and
communication tools. All of the applications are flash based, look really sleek and are tightly
integrated allowing you to easily share files.
There are three subscription plans available: Free, Premium Basic, costing $14.99 per month or
$149 per year and Premium Plus costing $39 per month or $390 per year. The paid plans are
currently only available in North America. For the rest of us, we can use the Free plan, which is
still useful.
Buzzword is the word processing application and works pretty much like every
other word processor you’ve used in recent times. You can add and format text, images and
tables. Documents can be saved online and shared or exported out as a PDF, word .DOC, HTML, RTF
and TXT amongst others.
CreatePDF does what it says on the tin – it creates PDFs from
files you’ve created online or uploaded. The free plan allows you to convert 5 PDFs, with
the Basic plan you can convert 10 per month, and with the Plus plan you have unlimited
conversions. I’m not really sure why Adobe charge for this service as there are plenty of
free convertors on the web.
ConnectNow is the web-conferencing application and lets you invite participants
to share your screen, share notes and use a webcam for. The number of participants allowed in any
meeting depends on your plan, three invites on the Free plan, five on the Basic and twenty on the
Plus plan. Personally, I found this to be the really “oooooh nice” part of the suite,
and perhaps this is the part that makes the whole set worth paying for if you need capacity for
larger web-conferences.
Share and MyFiles lets you organize and choose files
you’ve created either online or uploaded and share them with your contacts.
Other Applications In Beta
You can sign up to test out two applications that are still in Beta in the Acrobat Labs, the quite literally named “Tables”
and “Presentations”.
Tables This is the spreadsheet application and again, it looks sleek and
clean and is really easy to use. If you’ve ever used a spreadsheet before, you will find
familiarity here. The spreadsheets can be edited by multiple users.
Presentations
Presentation could be considered the rival to Microsoft’s PowerPoint. The templates and
graphics are clean and nicely designed as you would expect from Adobe. Multiple users can edit
the presentations and then easily shared.
Overall, the suite is very easy to use. One thing that is missing though (and correct me if you
found it), is a link that will take you back to the home page of Acrobat.com where you can choose
which application you want to work with. I could see how to jump from all of the applications to
Buzzword, but not back to home which is a little bit frustrating.
It will be interesting to see what the take up will be for paid subscriptions. With Tables and
Presentations still in beta, the suite certainly appears unfinished, but it has great potential.

What it does
Chirbit can be defined as web-based application that lets users not only record audio files easily
but also share them quite effortlessly. Some of the many uses that Chirbit can be easily put to
include micropodcasts, quoting others and even love confessions. I personally wouldn’t do the
latter, but in today’s technological world things like that are rapidly becoming the norm.
The same goes for apologizing to other this way – again, I think that should be
done in person. But each individual knows best.
A recent update has made the service compatible with iPhones. Now, iPhone Voice Memos can be
employed to post to Chirbit, effectively enabling the user to micro-podcast in a mobile
setting.
Otherwise, you will need a microphone or a webcam in order to use this service from your desktop
computer. In any case, an account must be created. The process is painless, and it simply entails
picking a username and a password to go with it. There are no fees or expenses to be paid.
In their own words
“A simple and fun way to share audio clips.”
Why it might be a killer
It is a fast and uncomplicated way to record and share audio snippets with whomever you like.
Some questions
How long can a recording be?

Editor’s note: This is a guest post from workplace expert Alexandra Levit, a Wall Street Journal writer and published
author. Follow her on Twitter.
Technology is supposed to increase our productivity and reduce our work hours, yet many of us
find the opposite to be true. We feel busier than ever, we stay at the office later than ever,
and sometimes we leave without finishing a single task of substance! Do these five things right
now and go to your family on time tonight.
1. Clear off your desk. When your office is cluttered, you’ll have the
tendency to flutter around it aimlessly, without a clear sense of where you should channel your
energy. I suggest thinking of every new item arriving on your desk as an insect that is
infiltrating your territory. Your job is to dispose of it as quickly as possible, either by
chucking it in the nearest recycling bin or putting it in its proper place. The only material on
your desk should pertain to the task you’re working on at that very minute.
2. Get Your Google on. Manage your virtual world more time-efficiently by
signing up for Google’s suite of offerings. The products, which include Gmail, Google Docs,
Google Calendar and Google Sites, streamline tasks and facilitate collaboration among people
working together on projects. Many are free, and the data are safely backed up and available
everywhere you have an Internet connection.
3. Don’t buy that plane ticket. Do you really need to meet with that sales
rep on the other side of the world? Video calling services like Skype, which is free and
available in 28 languages, allow you to connect visually with anyone in the world via a webcam
and a microphone. And what about that training seminar that will keep you out of the office for a
week? Webinar technology like Cisco WebEx allows for one-way communication from an individual
speaker to an audience, and it can include polling and electronic Q&A.
4. Order strategy – instead of donuts – for the
team meeting. Do not call team meetings indiscriminately, and don’t put them on
the calendar every week so that people take them for granted. Chit chat can be reserved for happy
hour. We all know that real project work gets done outside the conference room and that we do not
accomplish things simply by talking about them. Please don’t usurp an hour of valuable work
time unless the meeting generates important strategy, delegates tasks to ensure team member
accountability, or flags problems so that they can be managed before they get out of hand.
5. Nip procrastination in the bud. Raise your hand if you’ve spent weeks
putting off a task that should only take a few hours because you know you don’t want to do
it and fear you will spend too much time surfing the web and answering your e-mail? Fight the
urge to put things off by breaking complex and overwhelming projects down into smaller chunks
with easy starting points. After each mini-task has been completed, reward yourself with a
special treat.

Inkia, constructeur chinois inconnu au bataillon, lance non pas un, mais bien
deux nouveaux MID ! Ça valait bien une petite dépêche, allez hop.
Sobrement nommés MID-5 et MID-7 (pourquoi faire
compliqué), ces appareils embarquent un écran tactile de 5 ou 7 pouces (800 x 480),
un processeur Z510/Z520/Z530 pour l’un et N270 à 1,6 Ghz pour l’autre, 1 Go de
RAM, jusqu’à 32 Go de SSD, un GPS, le Bluetooth/wifi, le support de la 3G.
Le modèle 5 pouces intègre un APN de 3,2 mégapixels et une webcam de 0,3
mégapixel en façade, tandis que la version 7 pouces devra se contenter de la
webcam. Étrangement, ils n’ont pas les mêmes slots : microSD pour le premier,
SD/MMC pour le deuxième. Leurs dimensions sont de 160 x 95 x 22 (350 grammes) et 205 x 130
x 20.8 (700 grammes). Ils roulent sous Windows XP ou Linux.
