        Pechtold: Nederland is niet tolerant

        VLISSINGEN – Nederland is vanouds niet zo tolerant en vrijzinnig als we elkaar vaak wijsmaken.

        Dat betoogde Alexander Pechtold vanochtend in de Sint Jacobskerk in Vlissingen … “Generaliseren en denigreren zijn aan de orde van de dag” … de van oorsprong verzuilde Nederlandse samenleving was ook niet zo verdraagzaam … we leken wel een tolerant land, maar mensen uit verschillende groepen kwamen elkaar nauwelijks tegen en gingen niet met elkaar om. Na de verzuiling zijn we opgezadeld met een politiek systeem waarin volgens Pechtold de wetgevende, de bestuurlijke en de rechterlijke macht onvoldoende van elkaar zijn gescheiden. “Ons stelsel blijft ver achter bij wat doorgaans onder een westerse democratie verstaan wordt.

                Lisa Katayama talk at Ignite SF

                Here’s a very nicely edited video of my 5-minute slideshow presentation at Ignite SF at the Mezzanine (a night club) on April 1st. There was a technical glitch, and you can see me give the slidemaster a dirty look when it starts getting screwy. It was fun though—I am grateful to have had the opportunity to face that kinda situation in front of hundreds of people. Next time I won’t freak out, I promise.

                Lisa is so cool :-)

                      The Patriot Act

                      Mother claims teen jailed by Patriot Act
                      FBI holds 10th-grader for months with little contact from family

                      Sixteen-year-old Ashton Lundeby’s bedroom in his mother’s Granville County home is nothing, if not patriotic. Images of American flags are everywhere on the bed, on the floor, on the wall.

                      But according to the United States government, the tenth-grade home-schooler is being held on a criminal complaint that he made a bomb threat from his home on the night of Feb. 15.

                              While a video from 2006 at Gel, the message is quite interesting. Where in the past most things lasted forever, nowadays there are many products that are trash to start with.

                                          Google Wave is coming

                                          wave

                                          Google has just recently launched their new services: Google Wave.

                                          Today has been dominated by news and excitement surrounding Google Wave, Google (Google reviews)’s new real-time communication platform that will launch to the public later this year. In fact, there’s been so much buzz that you might just not have enough time to read the thousands of articles being released on Google’s biggest product launch in recent memory.

                                          Note the open source side of it and the integration advantages for existing users. Tip for Google: Try not to use the exact same colors als MS Windows…
