It's an upside down world

I know you like maps on signs so I put a QR code on your sign to open up a map…

Someone please explain the rationale for placing a huge QR code on a sign on the space where you would normally put a map, and then having the QR code be a link to the map (if you happen to have a proper device to handle it). And of course placing driving directions aligned centered :)

This distorted view that everything is better done digitally doesn't end there. Yesterday, finally the big the news came: there is now an app so that you can knock on people's door with an SMS http://bit.ly/AmVWe8

At some point we need to see that some things can also be done physically ;)

This is a psychology experiment

Also, proof that cats are smarter than dogs

I'm interested in the human nature and would like to measure the effect animals have on people's psychology. So, I'm posting the sample video below to test emotional response to human-like actions of animals. Please post in the comments how that video made you feel.

That said, every day is caturday, there's no need for lame excuses. Enjoy ;)

This is why people pirate

Awesome Oatmeal comic about trying something as simple as watching your favorite show online http://bit.ly/Aeok0T

To quote Valve's Gabe Newell:
"We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate's service is more valuable."

That said, Game of Thrones rocks! :)

The Cross-CMS Perception Matrix

In the spirit of the latest "What People Think I Do / What I Really Do" meme (more at http://chzb.gr/A6accB), here is how #CMS developers view other developers and their favorite system. I think each CMS has it's own purpose and use but there no harm with a little fun :) Included: #WordPress , #Drupal , #Joomla , #WIX and #Sharepoint .

Microsoft: Google.com is malware site

Mark this as #fail of the week: Google.com was marked as a #malware distributing site by Microsoft Security Essentials program due to a buggy update. #Google was labeled as a “severe” threat due to being infected with the Blackhole Exploit Kit – a nasty sounding exploit developed in Russia that allows hackers to target Windows users. The error has since been caught and corrected… More at http://bit.ly/wmkGWF
