This is what a camera looks like if you cut it in half! How on Earth did they accomplish this so cleanly? Also: look at all those lens elements!

Áhugavert… Ég fékk alla vega að ég væri unique.

Frekar mögnuð grein…

Research has shown, for instance, that children who know two languages more easily solve problems that involve misleading cues.

Áhugavert að tékka á þessu. Þetta er s.s. gaur sem hefur hannað það sem maður sér á tölvuskjám í hinum og þessum myndum (James Bond, Bourne, Mission Impossible 3…).

One cannot both experience and document something at the same time. This crisis, of having to choose either experience or the document of it, has been one that surfaces throughout my life in art. As a photographer, do I ‘experience’ less because I ‘document’ more? Is the experience more valuable than documentation? And how do we understand the experience of making documents?
Eric William Carroll, ‘The Crisis Of Experience’, 2009
Áhugavert quote… ég hef alveg tekið eftir þessu sjálfur, í partýum, á tónleikum… núna síðast um árámótin. Maður var á fullu að reyna ná góðum myndum af flugeldunum og maður náði ekki almennilega að njóta þeirra. Maður þarf einhvern veginn að finna jafnvægi, blanda þessu rétt saman.

Too many amazing pictures to post here. Some things, like 9/11 and the series of beheading that occurred during the earlier parts of the Iraq War I wish I could forget.

I felt so sad looking through this. At first I thought the theme was The Shame of USA but there’s more to it than that. So much more. Here I sit, empty bottle of Australian Chardonnay (not important except that I live in Sweden, that bottle of moderately priced wine travelled half the globe to be drunk by me, what a luxury) and watch what people in less fortunate parts of the world have to go through.

If this series of photo doesn’t get you thinking you probably should just shut up and fuck off.

The borough of Brooklyn in New York City is named after Breukelen

The original Brooklyn. Töff stöff.

Although men and women follow a similar number of Twitter users, men have 15% more followers than women.

Hmm… áhugavert. Ég hefði haldið að sætar stelpur ættu auðveldara með að fá followers ;)

Áhugavert… telur niður þangað til að öll lög Michael Jackson verða “public domain” - s.s. hver sem er getur notað lögin hans, remixað o.s.frv.

Twitter is monitoring what links are popular

I just noticed recently when clicking on a link on twitter.com that the URL I was sent to looked something like this:

http://twitter.com/link_click_count?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FHSasH&linkType=web&tweetId=3589638886&userId=6787612&authenticity_token=dfda81be52810b466e97c0441bf50986fbda99f8

It looks like Twitter is counting all clicks on links and even registering what user clicked the link. If I’m not logged in and click a link it says “userId=-1”.

Twitter is probably working on “Trending links” or something similar to display what links are popular at the moment, this week…

This doesn’t appear to have been implemented in Twitter clients like TweetDeck, not yet.
