When you think on a feed reader you assume that it will show the articles in a chronological ordered list, because we are used to see the information in 2 dimensions, but, what happens when we add a third dimension?.
That’s what they did with Voyage a feed reader made in Flash. This is the type of application perfect for Flash, maybe you can do something similar with Java but I don’t know if it would be as light in resources as this one.
During this long time without posting anything in this blog, at night I have been (re)reading some interesting books that I’d like to recommend to you.
This books are of the cyberpunk genre and although it’s fiction the stories and what happen to the characters or what they do is based completely in real techniques and risks in the computer security area, which is one of the areas I’m really interested in and is part of my day job even when nobody in the office has any idea of what is possible and the implications if we where attacked by some. And I won’t even mention the procedures that are recommended to be followed in such a case.
This blog has been neglected for too many days, and what better day to get back to blogging that Blog Day?
BlogDay was created with the belief that bloggers should have one day dedicated to getting to know other bloggers from other countries and areas of interest. On that day Bloggers will recommend other blogs to their blog visitors.
With the goal explained above, here are the bogs I picked for this:
Del derecho y las normas, David Maeztu writes this blog about legal issues and his interpretation, focused on spanish law.
Techquila shots. Techquila Shots is about ideas and how things can be “improved” on the web, by Steve Poland
Loogic. Blog about internet business in spanish.
120% Linux. Rants and news about Linux with the comments of outime.
Living in Japan Is a Blog about an English-speaking foreigner’s observations and explorations. (like Kirai )
Those are the recommendations of the day, I promise that the next Blog Day will be many more.
With the new Streed View feature in Google Maps a lot of strange, funny and unexpected images have been discovered by the users and in one of Wired blogs (Threat Level) there is a request for the Best Urban Images Captured by New Google Maps Tool.
And in Mashable they have the top 15 (so far).
A few examples:
The Void
The internet sucks
