the failure of second life | the bblog
In July of 2005, when I created my account, Second Life was the cool new thing. Moving between regions was kinda wonky, loading textures and objects was slow, and it was pretty ugly when compared to other games of the time; but it was generally assumed that these were teething issues, which would be quickly sorted out as new versions of the software were released. At the time, I used an Athlon XP 2500+ processor, a not enormously distinctioned graphics card, 768 megabytes of ram, and phat 2 megabit/512 kilobit DSL. Today I have an Intel Core i7 940, an eight-threaded processor that can access 6 gigabytes of ram, and Radeon HD4860 video card with a further 512 megabytes of ram, and I have symmetrical 25 megabit fiber internet.Les dix projets de jeux vidéo français les plus ambitieux

Lunch - Joel on Software
A lot of big tech companies have cafeterias, either free (Google) or cheap (Microsoft). At these companies, some teams actually make an effort to eat together every day. But a lot of teams don’t. If you wander around these places at lunchtime, you’ll see some large groups, a lot of pairs of people who have scheduled a “lunch meeting,” but you’ll also see a distressing number of loners eating by themselves. Maybe they’re reading a book or checking their email while they eat so they don’t look sad. Maybe they took their lunch back to their desk so they wouldn’t have to sit in the cafeteria by themselves.Donner de l'effet à vos photos - Tuxpi, une application en ligne gratuite | Ballajack
Tuxpi est une formidable application en ligne , complètement gratuite, pour ajouter des effets très originaux sur des photos . A ce jour 46 effets sont proposés sur le site . Chaque effet est une véritable petite application en ligne avec des divers paramètres de mise en forme pour personnaliser l’effet choisi. Il est également possible d’ajouter du texte, de créer des montages, de changer les couleurs, de faire pivoter, de redimensionner et sélectionner une zone particulière sur une photo. Je choisis par exemple l’effet Pencil Sketch pour donner un effet dessin au crayon à ma photo. La zone Customize contient une ou plusieurs options (selon l’effet choisi, ici on peut coloriser l’image) pour personnaliser l’effet obtenu.Novell - Wikipédia
My friend Noam Wasserman at Harvard Business School has spent years researching startups. His work is great, because he actually does real, quantitative research on the kinds of things that everybody has opinions about. Should you raise more money or maintain more control?
