Lort-Sverige hette den bok som journalisten Ludvig Nordström skrev efter sina radioreportage Med Ludvig Nordström på husesyn senhösten 1938. Det här var det första verkliga socialreportaget i radion. - Gunnar R Johansson

Gamla filmer och teveserier ges i en allt stridare ström ut på dvd. Nostalgi säljer. Därför har filmbolagen börjat rota allt djupare i den filmhistoriska garderobens dammigaste hörn. - Gunnar R Johansson
Det är helt enkelt det värsta publicistiska beslutet på väldigt länge och faller rätt in i Expressens tradition av just puckade beslut. - Gunnar R Johansson
Målet var att nå 40 000 unika besökare – första programmet hade 28 000 unika besökare och det andra programmet förra fredagen hade 72 000 unika besökare. När tredje programmet skulle ut på sajten i dag klockan 12 var det fullt tryck – för stort tryck för aftonbladet.se. - Gunnar R Johansson
Allt blir svart. Logiken försvinner. Plötsligt tror man att pengar är meningen med allt. Denna tisdagmorgon föll europabörserna rakt ner på fem minuter och ångesten slet tag i mig så hårt att jag SÅLDE SÅLDE SÅLDE. Det skriver idag programledaren och Aftonbladetjournalisten FREDRIK VIRTANEN. - Gunnar R Johansson

The photographer, Joe Pugliese, has a great website: http://www.joepug.com/ In fact it's so great I haven't got round to reading the Wired article yet - Adewale Oshineye
Enjoyable read except for this completely bizarre paragraph -- "Not long after that, Brin and Page came by to check in on the furtive beginnings of their browser. "I remember sitting at my desk, which at the time had a stuffed snake running along the back of it," says Pam Greene, an engineer on the team. "Sergey was bouncing on one of those exercise balls, watching Darin give a demo, and petting the snake." - Osi
"The snake, called Mr. Bigglesworth, seemed to purr softly in Sergey's lap, providing a calming influence during the demo. However, when one of the tabs crashed, taking the browser with it, Sergey's voice took a more strident turn. "I have gathered here before me the world's best developers," Sergey began, "and yet each of you has failed to kill Internet Explorer. That makes me angry. And when Sergey gets angry, Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset. And when Mr. Bigglesworth gets upset, people die!" - Karim
Sergey then pressed a nearby console button that retracted Darin's chair into the floor below. A flash of flame could be seen as the screaming developer vanished from the conference room. - Karim
Somebody help me!" Darin pleads. "I'm alive, only very badly burned!" This proves to be very distracting, and after being interrupted several times, Sergey picks up his phone, and reports the situation to a henchman. "I'll go deal with it," he assures Sergey. "If someone opens the retrieval hatch, I can get out," Darin explains. At this point, the hatch opens. Darin is at first grateful, but then a gunshot is heard. - Capn' One-Eye ☠
After a pause, Sergey is satisfied Darin is dead and attempts to continue explaining his plan, only be interrupted by Darin again, who says indignantly "you shot me! You shot me right in the arm! Why did you-". Darin sentence is cut short by a second gunshot, which proves to be the end for him, as the hatch is heard to close. (http://www.moviedeaths.com/aus...) - Capn' One-Eye ☠
Google’s Chrome is aimed at Windows, not IE
This is no longer about browser but about the an entire marketplace spread between desktop, mobile and web. With Chrome, Google’s taking a shot at Windows, not paltry Internet Explorer
I’ve covered this in more detail on my blog
http://sachendra.wordpress.com... - Sachendra
The point of Chrome is the same point one would make about the iPhone. Will iPhone outsell Nokia worlwide in total number of phones sold? Not a chance in hell! Has it changed the face of mobile phones forever...absolutely. This is where I think Chrome is a fantastic concept. By open sourcing D8 Google has literally empowered every other browser including Safari and Firefox to be Windows beaters. In actual fact IE may even implemented their own canibalised V8 to canibalise their Microsofts existing fat client business. If you ask me, Google is the master of judo in this case. google 2 MSFT 0 - John Kotsaftis

I haven't been able to find many details about the V8 design, but it's apparently a straight JIT (no interpreter) with inline caching of property accessors. I didn't see anything about HotSpot/TraceMonkey-style optimizing compilation, and it doesn't seem to use any intermediate language. (http://code.google.com/apis/v8...) Is this the future of dynamic language runtimes? Am I a nerd? - Jim Norris
Nice to see Wired putting out a great article in a timely manner for a change - rather than spend page upon page talking about minor internet celebs and how they gatecrashed gawker media parties to build their fame. - Jonathan Beckett
Jim, tracemonkey should still be faster. Paul friendfeeded an article comparing them. I should say that tracemonkey will still be faster eventually, unless V8 adds hotspot-like tracing as well, in which case, my money would ride on V8, since Google probably has half of the hotspot team :) - Sanjeev Singh
Brad Bitt, Cameron Diaz och Jay Leno har alla skänkt stjärnglans åt BMWs Hydrogen 7. I Sverige är det Linda Skugge som är först ut när bilen - som enbart släpper ut vatten - ska visas upp. - Gunnar R Johansson
Tyvärr kommer vi nog inte att se så mycket skillnad, mer än att det håller sig uppe framöver. Men jag, som hela tiden varit väldigt tålmodig, börjar verkligen lacka ur på deras bristande kommunikation. Det ÄR inte ok att bara försvinna på det här sättet.

Aftonbladet har sagt upp samarbetet med frilansfotografen Per-Olof Sännås. Orsaken är incidenten i samband med Engla-rättegången då Sännås hoppade fram ur ett buskage och skrämde Englas mamma.
