"franz manola von orf online warf den traditionellen medien vor, sich selber zu ernst genommen zu haben. man habe gedacht, das internet werde sich um die klassischen printtitel drehen. auch er bemängelte das 'herauswaschen des journalistischen' aus den medien und sieht in den weblogs die innovation der stunde. 'der weblogschreiber wird als leidenschaftlicher amateur den journalismus erneuern', ist sich manola sicher. die begeisterung tausender web-community-teilnehmer, in den foren auf orf.at zu posten, sei damit zu erklären, dass die bislang 'nicht penetrierbare festung orf' plötzlich offen sei für persönliche statements. 'warum kann ich nicht mit einem weblog auch redaktionsmitglied von spiegel online werden?', fragte er mathias müller von blumencron, den geschäftsführer von spiegel online." – alpbach news no. 16, unfortunately only as htmlified pdf in google's cache.
actually, i was looking for a weblog maintained by an austrian vintager. anyone?
at some point i just don't want to join anymore. but as with everything, not to join the one is to join the other.

usb floppy disk striped raid under os x: "at first I thought it was screwed up, but it just took a while for the various units to meld themselves into a single super duper kalimazooper floppy drive. upon completion. I had a new single 4.22 mb floppy disk drive called untitled" (via shithappens).
whether this is a late april fool's joke or not: it's truly witty writing.
video of the day: junior senior's "move your feet".
the "nice" beaver at the shynola download page already gives a good preview of what's inside. for the video you have to imagine these tiny pixels on a really big screen, though.
and if you watch very closely you will find a very nice adaptation of claudia's pixeldancer.
