When tagging friends on Facebook goes wrong

jazzjeppe — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 16:35:28 +0000

Just a minute ago I saw a couple of contacts of mine being tagged in this photo. The square on the left hand side indicates a third man…and well, yeah…. Anyhoo, comments on the right are harsh and states that this is absolutely not fun nor cool. I assume this photo was uploaded and tagged by a teenager thinking he was funny. Turned out to be very wrong. It is somehow comforting that most teens actually know when the limit is reached. Poster of the photo apparently did not.

A creditor of Global Gaming Factory X, the potential buyer of The Pirate Bay site, has asked a court in Stockholm to declare the company bankrupt.

The bankruptcy suit for the Swedish advertising and software company has been submitted to the Stockholm District Court, according to a report in Svenska Dagbladet. Global Gaming Factory X grabbed international headlines when it announced on June 30th its intention to take over The Pirate Bay.
Global Gaming Factory X was due to pay Advatar System 1,378,525 kronor ($200,204) by July 25th this year – a debt which today remains unpaid.
Johan Sellström – a former board member of the Global Gaming Factory X and Advatar Systems’ Managing Director – is reportedly now tired of chasing the overdue debt. The suit states that “the debtor canot legally pay its debts, and such incapacity cannot be regarded as ‘temporary’.”
Global Gaming Factory X’s ambitious plans to acquire Pirate Bay now seem likely to be put on hold due to question marks over the company’s lack of capital.

jazzjeppe — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 13:12:42 +0000

Japan based startup LIFEmee.com is a life management tool that aims to improve your life. They say. A quick look at the service leaves me with nothing but confusion though. According to co-founder Kenny Lum LIFEmee is about:

This is a new proto-type life management tool. We are based in Tokyo and we want to help people set clear goals, monitor their daily lives and basically improve their lives.

Okay, so I want to set a clear goal and I want my life improved. What do I need to do? The following services will help you. I think. Or… Confusion total. Me, syntax error.

LiveForFame – like Flickr but better looking

jazzjeppe — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 21:03:09 +0000

Liveforfame.com is a photo and music sharing network in private beta. Slick looking and the community is still young and cozy. Upload your photos or music (your very own music, I presume) and share it to the rest of the L4F:ers who can comment and "star it". Easy, peaceful and interesting. Just like Flickr but with all the clutter gone. Could be the Posterous in a Posterous vs WordPress fight. Nowadays we want it light, minimalistic and simple. Liveforfame is at this point this. I hope it stays that way.

Keith Floyd and Patrick Swayze murdered?

jazzjeppe — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 17:19:56 +0000

It was just something someone wrote on my wall after I published the news on Facebook (yeah, all my friends are not as geeky as me, hence I am the news-breaker…). Two celebrities die in the same day and we were and are still waiting to hear media saying they were both murdered. That's what we tend to do nowadays. So, were they? Time will tell, people around the world demand someone to blame every death on.

Probably not. Except bad food and cancer.

Why I love Fluther

jazzjeppe — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 16:15:30 +0000

Fluther is a social networking service for asking questions and getting answers in real time. I discovered the site a year ago and I have since then checked back now and then. The most remarkable thing about Fluther is the community, the people using it. You can basically ask everything and you always get honest and friendly answers. Here you won’t find any immature or hostile comments, only decent feedback from a huge community. It has huge potential and I am amazed that more people haven’t discovered this friendly haven. Welcome to Fluther!

TweetDeck just became fraking awsome

jazzjeppe — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 16:15:07 +0000

via tweetdeck.com

The competition between Twhirl, Seesmic and TweetDeck just got tougher. The latest release of TweetDeck brings you an integration with Facebook and MySpace that is at this point almost too good to be true. You can finally “like” and reply directly within TweetDeck to feed in your Facebook news feed! And this, ladies and gents, is a huge step for desktop Twitter/social networks clients!

Welcome back!

It’s been a while since I blogged here, but I thought it was time to bring this one alive again. I have been blogging on Posterous for some time, mixing personal and tech things. Thought I might as well save the techies to Social Overload.
