          Facebook – Your face does only count

          In most cases, your profile photo on Facebook tells viewers what they need to know to form an impression of you – no words are necessary, new research suggests.
          College students who viewed a Facebook photo of a fellow student having fun with friends rated that person as extraverted – even if his profile said he was “not a big people-person.”
          “Photos seem to be the primary way we make impressions of people on social networking sites,” said Brandon Van Der Heide, lead author of the study and assistant professor of communication at Ohio State University.
          The exception is when a photo is out of the ordinary or shows someone in a negative light. In that case, people do use profile text to help interpret what kind of person is shown in the profile.

              Gekko and Greed

              The point is, ladies and gentleman, that greed — for lack of a better word — is good.
              Greed is right.
              Greed works.
              Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
              Greed, in all of its forms — greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge — has marked the upward surge of mankind.
              And greed — you mark my words — will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA.

                v

                The more mature internet user “gets” the impact of sharing without being sensible. Facebookers seem now hitting that pole too.. finally.

                      Hooligans? Let only children and Women to matches

                      Instead of empty stadiums, allowing only children and women in seems to spectacularly solve aggression at matches..
                      No surprise that this is also exactly the audience that more wanted for soccermatches.

                              Flawed EU Vision?

                              Klaver in 2002:

                              Hoe goedgelovig kunnen we zijn? Met 15 en straks 22 kapiteins op het schip zal het politieke Europa geen stand houden. Munten kunnen niet tegen politieke instabiliteit. Conclusie: de euro is geen lang leven beschoren. [...]
                              De eurocraten troostten zich met de gedachte dat die verdere politieke unie wel afgedwongen zou worden als de euro eenmaal een feit was. Met andere woorden, de eurocraten zijn er steeds van uitgegaan dat de euro het instrument is om die verregaande politieke integratie af te dwingen. Doen ze voorkomen dat de euro een sluitstuk is van de Europese eenwording, dan is dat dus een leugen. Men zal wel gedacht hebben dat het een leugen was om ons bestwil: eerst moeten wij, de burgers, die euro accepteren, en dan kan er gewerkt worden aan de acceptatie van verdere integratie, oftewel een verdere afkalving van de soevereiniteit van de lidstaten. De strategie blijft achterbaks, een democratie onwaardig.(via)

                                the illusion of community – Andrew Keen

                                AllThingsD’s Liz Gannes speaks with author Andrew Keen, who rails agains “the illusion of community.” By making everything social, we’re actually losing our indivuality and social life, because it isn’t as social as we think.
                                Great parody on this. See also Sherry Turkle bash on web 3.0.

                                            The 7 Stages of Internet Grief

                                            • people tweet about dead celebrity
                                            • people tweet about what dead celebrity meant to them
                                            • people tweet insensitive jokes about dead celebrity
                                            • people tweet about how it’s too soon to be tweeting insensitive jokes about dead celebrity
                                            • people tweet about how other people tweeting about dead celebrity aren’t tweeting the right way about dead celebrity
                                            • people tweet about how people tweeting about dead celebrity should instead be tweeting about recent tragedy
                                            • people tweet about how people who tweet about how people tweeting about dead celebrity should instead be tweeting about recent tragedy are assholes

                                            And that is basically what happened on the entire Internet this weekend, after Amy Winehouse died, and because it was boiling hot in 85% of North America, everyone was glued to their computers and their Twitters and had to really let it fly.

                                                  How much for a logo?

                                                  logo

                                                  15 MILLION Euro for a old logo. Note that people involved ALL earned more than the dutch government salary norm. The timing, a few days after government went on holiday is now very comfortable… i guess. Meanwhile Culture, Healthcare and Education costs are cut. Sometimes it is small things which make people angry.. this is probably one of them.
