Meebo Just Rulez!

Meebo added video functionality. I haven't tried it yet but a close friend of mine told me that it was successful on handling video conversation.



When it comes to videos, I still prefer to response to videos on Youtube. :) It reminds me the time when Roman Emperor rebuilt the forums. That was 46 B.C. and I wasn't there, naturally.



Well anyway, have to go to bed early tonight. I should say this evening. I want to run away from the computer before I am caught to another ugly face of Paris Hilton.

What's Interesting About Twitter?

I am wondering why people scream for privacy when it comes to Google's way with dealing with privacy issues and not do the same for Twitter?



What exactly is the difference? Is it that you only post what you are up to according to your feeling of privacy for that moment? I don't think so.



I also wonder what is the difference between Myspace and Twitter?



Isn't Twitter another way of giving up on your privacy?

Joost! Shame on You!

Finally I've got my invitation and visited Joost web site. I saw that they only have their software for Windows. Man, that just sucks. Even Second Life which has a much more complicated software than what Joost does, has its Linux version. It works very well by the way and its updated frequently enough.



Anyway, Joost should wake up and think about compatibility.

The King Is Naked and Paris Hilton Is Ugly

Paris Hilton 1, originally uploaded by Peter Schaefermeier.

My question to male readers out there: What do you find in Paris Hilton as attractive?

I mean, she looks uglier than any average girl on a myspace profile. At least they are hiding themselves or find different angles to shoot themselves.

I really don't find her attractive. If the reason is the Hilton Empire, even Hilton Empire is not enough for me to forget the truth. She isn't beautiful. Only her name is beautiful.

Mr Spock looks far more better than Paris Hilton although they have the same type of ears.

Sorry to those that adore her.

My Brand New OS

I have been using Ubuntu since last year. Nowadays, Ubuntu made the buzz with the latest release Feisty Fawn. I like those guys because they work hard and make gnu/linux easy for the masses. I suggest you to try Feisty Fawn. It's setup is far more easier than Windows. It has a migration tool that helps you with your documents and settings and several other crap (excuse my french) on your windows partition (or box).

Apart from that Feisty also has this dialog when you click on a media file. It helps you to download the appropriate codec.

Well what is lacking in Ubuntu? Nothing spesific to Ubuntu. What lacks are Adobe software (except flash player, adobe provided the latest flash player for linux too), wide spread games and maybe some even easier applications like iLife. Apart from them, Ubuntu is far more ready than ever for everybody to use.

Run Baldwin Run

The rumor has it that Baldwin send a voice message to his daughter. The message is intimidating. I don't believe the celebrity oriented media. I now how things work over there, I was there.

So all they have is some recently shot photos of Kim Bassinger and her daughter together and no piece of evidence from Alec Baldwin apart from an mp3 file which can be created by anybody nowadays. Have ever heard of the Audacity goodness? It's an open source audio software that makes a fool-proof opportunity to create mp3 files.

I really don't care about neither Alec Baldwin nor Kim Bassinger. I don't care about their daughter either. But I still believe in something called privacy. I hate it when cheap reporter came and shoot some photos and make-up some story for the sake of a couple of dollars. I don't blame them, the owners of such media is to blame.

For people who care, this guy has a fairly sufficient coverage of the topic in his blog.

So Far So Bad

I am back. Yes, Thomas strikes back. I missed my blog. I have also given a break with my therapy while I wasn't writing to my blog. Anyway, here is what happened. I went into a partnership with a former employer. We did some great things concerning organizing small fairs for small business. I was happy that after some time I was working and doing something. After a couple of months my bipolar disorder hit me one more time. It was mostly major depression or felt like it.

The feeling goes like this: no excitement. very short pieces of will against doing something if any.

I really missed the excitement of willing to do something. Wanting to see friends, etc. I thought that my blog would keep me in action. Here we go.

Mos-Eisley Cantina Revised

Now this is great. Vocal-only version of one of the famous Star Wars OST. Sung via whistles... no, more fun than whistles. No visuals, audio-only. This is from my insane friends in Istanbul. They begged me not to reveal their identity. LOL.

Entertainment Redefined

A good point about the use of words.
