Barcelona photos from last week-end

I took the below pictures below last week-end in Barcelona. I went to see a Depeche Mode concert with my best friend Amandine and we all had a great time with Caroline, Agathe and Mehran.

Fox News caught falsifying footage

Over at the great Huffington Post is an article about how Jon Stewart explains in his traditional humorous fashion how Fox News falsified footage (unbelievable of course ;) ), to give people the impression that a GOP rally was far bigger than it actually was.

Love the ending with Comedy Central’s own version also using unrelated footage! :)

Google Wave: Pulp Fiction style

The WebDNA of UbiKann

While visiting sites that link to UbiKann the other day I came across a site called Neatorama, which covers funny and unusual content.

One of the posts covers the story of the WebDNA project. When I tried it the first time the guy’s server must have been slowly dying under the numerous hits from so many visitors. Today however I was able to take a few snapshots of different sites.

This is UbiKann.com’s DNA profile “à la” WebDNA :

This is Significant-Media.com’s WebDNA (a site I just finished) :

This is the WebDNA of Gossamer-Threads (my hosting company) :

Finally this is the WebDNA of ‘A List A Part’ :

A List A Part's Web DNA

The Web DNA site explains that the structure of the content is used to create the image and that “a semantically rich site will appear brighter than one with messy old-style code”…

How Microsoft would advertise the iPod

A short video parody of what Microsoft would probably have done, had they been in charge of advertising for Apple’s iPod product :

Ooooh it is soooo bad making fun of Microsoft ;)

A banned Mastercard advert : indecent proposal !

I must say before you view it :
a) There are no nude images or indecent images
b) There is some language that will be considered by some as indecent but the language is not really vulgar
c) It may be recommended to not listen to it out loud at work ;)
d) If you are a puritan, then don’t watch and then you won’t need to complain…

Well if Mastercard did actually go for a commercial like this in the US you’d understand why it would get banned !?
What is funny though is when you try describing it, and trying not to giving away the story, people get really curious !
Needless to say comments that give away the story will not be published ;)
