Google's Hello photo sharing service to go down this week

Mon, 12 May 2008 03:35:39 -0700

Unfortunately, not every project of the all-mighty Google works out in the end and there comes a time when some have to leave the interweb and join Netscape in that infinite network in the sky. Drama aside, Google is now preparing to shut down the Hello photo sharing service which works in conjunction with Picasa. "We originally embarked on a mission to make photo sharing easier and more fun with Hello. We plan to keep carrying that torch in new projects to come," said a final post by the He

Using Suggested Portfolios to Build Your Portfolio Written by The Dividend Guy on May 12, 2008 Be the First to Comment » In this post I am going to provide a list of websites that provide investors with suggestions for a well-diversified portfolio.

Web start-up unveils semantic Wikipedia search tool

Mon, 12 May 2008 03:30:12 -0700

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Powerset on Sunday unveiled tools for searching Wikipedia that use conversational phrasing instead of keywords, marking the first step of its challenge to established Web search services such as Google. Powerset’s technology breaks down the meaning of words and sentences into related concepts, freeing users from always needing to type the exact words they want to find. The closely watched Silicon Valley start-up is offering a way of searching millions of entries in Wik

TinEye, interesante motor de búsqueda de imágenes

TinEye, interesante motor de búsqueda de imágenes Manu Todos hemos buscado alguna vez una imagen en Google o Yahoo!, ¿verdad? Sí, escribes el término de búsqueda, pulsas el botón correspondiente y aparecen montones de imágenes con un nombre o título determinados. Pero hoy os traemos algo distinto. TinEye es un motor de búsqueda de imágenes, pero en lugar de introducir un término de búsqueda lo que introduces es una imagen. Es decir, tú subes una imagen desde tu PC, y el buscador se encarga d

Madonna Wants Us To Jump And F*** For Planet Earth

Mon, 12 May 2008 03:11:51 -0700

Madonna Wants Us To Jump And F*** For Planet Earth WHEN Madonna stood on the Live 8 pulpit and told us, “If you want to save the planet I want you to start jumping up and down. Come on motherf*****”, we jumped. We have now jumped 54,982 times. If we stop jumping the planet will die. Anorak set about petitioning World Wildlife Fund to approve a cull of all carbon exhaling creatures that cannot jump, such as elephants, babies and Peter Crouch. Now Madonna has issued another withering cry. In

Our Neighbors to the West

Mon, 12 May 2008 03:04:42 -0700

By dawn, yesterday’s storms were pretty much done, having delivered here 2.00 inches of rain (only 1.01 inches claimed in Athens, which is odd, since I would have thought the rain coverage and intensity much more homogeneous than that). The rest of the morning the weather pretty much sulked, with cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid-sixties, so I decided to grab my gps, and combine a mapping expedition with some exploration. Here’s a screen capture of the local area from google earth. The

Jasrac and JRC

●JASRAC独占、なぜ崩れないのか——JRCの荒川社長に聞く（ITmedia）いいとこに話聞きにいったなぁ＞ITmedia。　JRCは2000年12月に設立。音楽著作権の「録音権等」（CD、CM、ゲームソフトなどへの録音）と、「インタラクティブ配信」（ネット配信）を管理。L'Arc-en-Ciel、スピッツ、BENNIE Kなど有力アーティストやインディーズなど約5000曲の管理委託を受けている。JASRACやイーライセンスと異なり、放送に関連する権利は扱っていない。　JRCはこのほど、同社の管理楽曲をYouTubeでの利用について包括利用許諾契約をGoogleと締結（関連記事：YouTubeに初の音楽著作権包括許諾・JRC　スピッツやラルクもOK）するなど、変化の激しいWeb上の音楽配信状況への柔軟な対応を売りにしている。音楽業界とネットの関係や、理想的な音楽著作権管理のあり方などについても話を聞いた。　ただJASRACは、民間企業や放送局と共同で、放送に使用された音楽を全曲把握するシステム作りとルール作りをここ数年進めている。今回の立ち入りは、それにある種の冷水

Christian Anti-Gay Activists Align with Anti-Semitic Anti-Gay Activists

Christian Anti-Gay Activists Align with Anti-Semitic Anti-Gay Activists Posted on May 12th, 2008 by Emily K Politics makes strange bedfellows, and here is another shining example. Anti-gay activists have hit the trifecta of racism, antisemitism, and homophobia with newly recognized allies David Duke, Rev. Ted Pike, and Peter LaBarbera. Rev. Ted Pike makes claims against Jews on his website in the name of Jesus, while Duke not only pushes “white civil rights” and caters to white supremacists,

Paris Hilton Has No Monopoly On Boardom

Mon, 12 May 2008 02:58:45 -0700

Paris Hilton Has No Monopoly On Boardom PARIS Hilton says of her life with boyfriend Benji Madden: “We don’t really like to go out. We have game night where friends come over and play Monopoly.” She concludes: “He has changed my life in every way.” Some may see little change in a woman famously in line to inherit a property empire playing a game in which she tries to build up a property empire and place hotels on every block. But Monopoly is surely being served up as a symbol of something e
