The Obamagasm shadow

Reading some comments and blog posts, I came across the wonderful word. “Obamagasm“
The magic of hope, joy, explosive power, change, challenge, and mystery; all in one word. And although I am not a skeptic, I can’t help but be concerned about what the truth is. Has Obama been groomed to appear to be the best thing [...]

MyParl.eu – No take-off, No crash-and-burn

View This Pollopinion

Gawain Towler has announced the death of MyParl.eu with the followup of Jon Worth .
The project was simply a waste of money. A project which didn’t take off so it doesn’t crash land! Because the project would simply crash-and-burn.
Sometimes I wonder who comes up with these great ideas…

Instead of finding new projects to fund [...]

Press… Many Media- one picture… Saddening…

A post i read in a blog post of WHAT’S NEXT: INNOVATIONS IN NEWSPAPERS was so strong, I thought it was justified to “pirate” it…
All I can say is that i am saddened by the picture below…. Too bad…

EBS Plus- Thank God, but Why, Why, and Why

I’m very happy to see that EBS is expanding with a plus channel… There are however three small things I don’t understand:

1) why (since they have the raw material) don’t they use a more userfriendly platform? (Realplayer is absolutely TERRIBLE)

2) why don’t they add embeding codes to the darn videos so they can REALLY circulate the internet and be seen by the citizens of Europe…

3) Why didn’t they put EUROPARLTV on this platform as well, with both a website and a satelite channel playing a playlist of selected parliament videos and live coverage at the same time?

Why Why Why?

New Europe gives Gawain Towler a bulletproof vest

Following up on my previous post on the situation of Gawain Towler, an official of the European Parliament to whom it was suggested that he shut down his not pro-european blog, or face penalty equal to 4 months wages, I am very happy to see the response of a European Newspaper. Towler’s story hasn’t reached [...]

European Parliament attacks blogger… So much for pluralism!

Gawain towler, with his numerous blogs and fancy Press position, is very well known in Eurocircles, and surely does not need an introduction.
He has been ordered (in European terms- asked politely…) to close the blinds on his England Expects blog and surrender quietly into the blogosphere’s night. From the grapevine, I understant that the wrath of [...]

Bloggers are not untouchable, but they can be smart

We don’t exactly know what is going to come out the European Parliament concerning blogging and the rights of individuals seeking to put their personal thoughts on the internet for communication with other likeminded (or not) individuals.
One thing is for sure; with the impact of a few large-fanbase blogs, politicians are starting to worry.
We have [...]
