Apparently, it is integrated with google apps :::link:::

Not sure but maybe they are going with the pay to store and share your files online model? I am surprised google doesn't buy this up. Either google or adobe.

(e:paul) - thanks for sharing this. I've been poking around the audio side of things and it looks good. The interfaces are similar to existing software.

What is the business model? You have any ideas?

Interesting commentary on Assange: :::link:::

Personally, I'd like to think the nation that put men on the moon could do better than a denial of service attack on Wikileaks.

But, as always I could be wrong.

Unfortunately, I think that all governments tend to act the same when facing threats real or imagined. It's what happens afterwards that highlights the differences between the styles of government.

tinypliny - 12/04/10 13:34
Oh, they are up at :::link:::

For all the talk about how the government is not controlling the internet, all those denial of service attacks against wikileaks points otherwise. Why would independent hackers be against wikileaks content? Seems more likely that the government is employing skilled hackers to sabotage wikileaks.

Wikileaks is up. You just need to visit it by IP addr as their domain names were revoked. If you search for it on google you can find the ip. Maybe google will be forced to censor them too. That would be truly insane.

The Chinese government is not without its merits though: :::link:::

Maybe the people high up in the government should worry more about who they give access to sensitive information than about prosecuting the messenger. Between this and the TSA the Obama administration is really starting to piss me off. I suppose it proves to me it really doesn't matter who I vote for.

Wikileaks is offline anyway. No one is gutsy enough (or big enough to have resources) to host their content. They probably will need to set up their own servers - in which case, who knows... they might be a denial-of-service attack on them by the henchmen of the political scum they are exposing.

The wiki on wikileaks is a fascinating read :::link:::

The way wikileaks is being treated is clearly a demonstration of how people in power (not only in the US but across the world) will react if their corruption and lies are exposed. Why we continue to elect these liars to power is a mystery. A completely aboveboard government is a myth nowadays.

People who want to bring in some responsibility and accountability for these scummy political actions get shot down ruthlessly through various coercive channels. For eg. do you think Amazon and Paypal withdrew support to wikileaks because they were opposed to the content? I don't think so. They probably were rushing to protect their own interests from the greedy fangs of political pressure in the future.

The freedom of information act in itself is a lie. Everyone is already a "China" but are hypocritical enough that they can't admit it.

The holographic tech already exists. It's just a matter of scale. Check out :::link::: Alexander McQueen did a holographic project of Kate Moss in 2006.

I push an elevator button and don't have to put on a coat. Community is generally quite comfortable, except when our heat it out!

Erm, what I meant to say is I can't usually dance my way to work in the morning because I am inevitably running late to something or the other. But coming home is a completely different story. Oh, and I have decided to take the Verve Studio hip hop AND yoga classes so I can turn all those wishful graceful-wall-vaulting moments to reality in say, 6 months or so.

tinypliny - 12/02/10 22:55
I LOVE it. Now that I am salsomatic (Copyright!!), I play salsa at full blast and DANCE my way home. In the mornings however, it takes me a whole of 30 minutes to get up from bed to my desk at the office. :-)

In bad weather, I am so jealous of you since I have to travel all over the Buffalo Metro area to inventory stores. For example, I was in Albion today. Fortunately, weather was not a factor.

In saner moments, I think that I probably would go crazy after the novelty wore off going to the same place at the same time every day.

That Is pretty interesting....

I have never served in the military.

That being said I find it interesting that their is rivalry between branches. Marines get called Jar heads and they think that if you are in the navy you gay. I wonder if some of that comes from marines landing on navy ships or being deployed from them....

That Being said. I think that anyone who wants to fight for their country should be allowed to.. But at the same time people who are different from each other may not get along and how do you get them to get along. This isn't just about being gay it is about being the minority (not just racially Imagine being the death or speed metal black hair and dark being in a company of clowns or mexicans)... I think it is tough when you live and fight and work in the same place......
