Gmail contest winners
Gmail contest winners
06/14/2004 02:18 AMFirst off, let me just say I got a ton of response to my gmail
photo invites thing and among the entries I got far too many good ones
to pick just a few. I actually used gmail's built-in tools to track
everything. By labeling all incoming entries, I can see in one click
that 118 people sent a photo link in. Of those, I put a star next to
36 I liked on first view. Of those, I narrowed them down to 31. Among
those 31, there was something compelling about the colors, lighting,
and/or subject matter and any one of ten could have had the top spots.
I'm going with my gut reaction on first viewing but here are the three
winning entries:
a kite photo, a net
photo, & a sunset
photo
It was really hard to pick the top three, as any one of these could
have also been there. If I had more invites to give out, I would have
thrown them all into this list, in no particular order:
§ § §
§
§
§ § § §
§ § §
§ § § § §
§ § § § § § § § §
§ §
I learned some things in this experiment. The biggest one is that
when I said "send in your best photo" I figured that meant the best
composition with the best lighting and most technically superior
image. What most people sent was their finest memory captured on film,
regardless of photo quality. It was eye-opening to me, and told me a
lot about over a hundred strangers. I got to see many, many photos
from vacations and untold numbers of sunsets. It's a fantastic way to
experience meaningful moments in peoples' lives, by seeing these
photos. I've been getting way too far into the technical side of
photography for the last year or two and forgot that photography is
first and foremost a way to record memories.
Overall, I got to see (and share here) many wonderful photos and
memories from those that sent them in. I wish I had more invites to
give and thank everyone for participating.

EFF Pioneer award winners announced
04/08/2005 05:28 AMCory Doctorow:
Next Wednesday, as part of the festivities in Seattle's
Computers, Freedom and
Privacy confernece, EFF will host its
Pioneer Awards, at 7PM
at the Sci Fi Museum. Today, the org released the list of (very)
distinguished winners for the year:
Dr. Patrick Ball is a leading innovator in applying
scientific measurement to human rights. He directs the
Human Rights Data Analysis Group (HRDAG) at Benetech
(www.benetech.org), a nonprofit organization that combines
the impact of technological solutions with the social
entrepreneurship business model to help disadvantaged
communities. He served as the catalyst behind two open
source software tools for the human rights community,
"Martus" and "Analyzer," which aid in the secure storage
and analysis of data on human rights violations. He will be
accepting his award from East Timor.
Edward Felten is a professor of Computer Science at
Princeton University whose research interests include
computer security and technology law and policy. He brings
these scholarly interests to his work as an activist. In
2001, Felten and EFF sued the Recording Industry
Association of America (RIAA) and the Secure Digital Music
Initiative (SDMI) in a case challenging the
constitutionality of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
(DMCA). Felten is also author of "Freedom to Tinker"
(www.freedom-to-tinker.com), a highly regarded weblog
exploring the ways government and industry attempt to limit
technological innovation and what activists can do about
it.
Mitch Kapor is President and Chair of the Open Source
Applications Foundation (www.osafoundation.org), a
nonprofit organization he founded in 2001 to promote the
development and acceptance of high-quality application
software developed and distributed using open source
methods and licenses. He is widely known as founder of
Lotus Development Corporation and the designer of Lotus
1-2-3, the "killer app" that made the personal computer
ubiquitous in the business world in the 1980's. In 1990 he
co-founded the Electronic Frontier Foundation and served as
its chairman until 1994.

"The Bicicleta collection was born out of research into the
possibility of using recycled rubber to create new textures." A trip
to India was the primary inspiration and I must admit I now have a
very strange attraction to discovering just what this feels like on
one's feet. I'm sure it'll give you a whole different type of rug

that others prefer to use their phone

carrier Orange, in the Netherlands, is offering
a free bicycle to new customers with the purchase of a special

charger for the mobile phone, so you can keep on talking as long as
you pedal fast enough.

Gregory Dicum's book "Window

idea:
"Broken down by region, this unusual guide features 70
aerial photographs; a fold-out map of North America showing major
flight paths; profiles of each region covering its landforms,
waterways, and cities; tips on spotting major sights, such as the
Northern Lights, the Grand Canyon, and Disney World; tips on spotting
not-so-major sights such as prisons, mines, and Interstates; and
straightforward, friendly text on cloud shapes, weather patterns, the
continent's history, and more."
Did you know that the patterns of the streets in subdivisions lets you
know when they were built? Or that the round ponds all over Florida
are sinkholes? With Window Seat at your side, you'll learn these
things. Keep it to yourself though--the person sitting next to you
doesn't want to hear it.

about this AK Rocker chair. Does anyone really need to use XtreMe
Rocking Chairz in the "sand, snow or dirt?" It looks comfortable
enough, I guess, but it would be sort of embarrassing to have one of
these sitting around in your nice living room. They're cheap enough,
at around $80 (or less on eBay, it seems), to consider getting a
couple to play Gran Turismo 4 when it hits the streets.
Clearly, though, they should have called them "Rockaro" seats.
