For those interested in the actual beer, it's a blond Belgian ale with touches of nettles and juniper berries -- and in order to achieve the brain-blasting alcohol content, it had to be created using extreme freezing techniques.

@alf, обрати внимание. Это покруче Nuclear Tactical Pinguin'а будет

Всё те же BrewDog, кстати. Но семьсот с гаком баксов — это без меня :) Я лучше ещё по пингвинчику...

LOL "The End of History". I'm sceptical that beer that's 55% alcohol can taste acceptable, let alone good.
- Goran Zec
Well, I'm not an expert, but Nuclear Tactical Pinguin (32%) was indeed a good beer. The only problem, it's only suitable for tasting: one sip is enough, as while it's good, it's way too strong.

Hi Folks! Today is my birthday, I'm 33! :) And I wanted to celebrate by releasing an idea -and an implementation of it- to the wild! It's Socnode: The basic unit of distributed social networks. http://www.socnode.org/
:) Really glad to have you arround, guys! Jorge, now your turn, man! ;-) Josh! That's *A* HONOR! Watashi wa? Hontoni honto? Arigato Josh san, and hey! Focus Daniel San! ALLWAYS LOOK EYE :) — Mille merçis, Laurent! :)
- directeur
Credit where credit is due: The blue O is an idea by Vijay no baka! The guy who knows how to insult me in japanese and who in return gets his fair share of insults too! Arigato, rokudenashi! :) — Oh and to see the thing in action, go to http://socnode2.appspot.com login with "beta" and password "123" share something and go to http://socnode.appspot.com to see it there too!
- directeur
Happy Birthday! And this sounds like a great idea!
- Ahsan Ali
Happy Birthday bro! :) Now you're an old man :p
- tunahan
Thanks Laura! Tunahan, thank you too! And Oh yes! I'm old, and old people don't send DMs to their turkish friends with a shamefull record of them singing in turkish :D

otanjoubi omedeto gozaimasu directeur :D btw the Matrix series that rocked the planet was inspired by Ghost in the Shell. Not only that, GITS talks about social media and memes 10 years ago. The anime we watch are far from the silly Powerpuff kiddie anime that people normally see as anime. Watch away directeur, I'm with you :D
- vijay
Happy birthday, Directeur!! Looking forward to checking out SocNode, thanks for sharing!
- Harold Cabezas
Thank you all folks! :) @Vijay: Totally! @Harold, please do! You can try the demo (links above) and check out the source code too! @Cristo: Happy birthady to you too! ;-)
- directeur
Happy birthday, glad to meet you and have you as a FF. Be happy allways, you deserve it.
- Céu de Buarque
Thank you, all! :) Jason, let's hope so! As I often said it in the Dango Daikazoku group, the idea here is really more important than my own django implementation of it -which actually is beautiful too! ;-)
- directeur
A belated happy birthday to you, Directeur. :)

The software attempts to examine its own existence and state of being based on a variety of known philosophies combined with the physical aspects of being a computer program."

Conceptual art circa '69 was in love with lists and instructions. But yeah, Duchamp and the Fluxus movement (being post Dada) were key instigators.

"It’s not hard to envisage a friend feed type account, open to everyone inside the agency and then for that agency to equip all of it’s employees (and I mean all) with a mobile phone, then to get every employee to sign up to special interest groups (some more general, some more niche), then to allow them all to be able to feed into an idea feed, or stream, and here’s the crucial bit, BEFORE, a briefing meeting or brainstorm is ever held. People would be ablew to plugin from other open API friendly services (Digg, Delicious, Twitter, Googlemaps, stumble, etc)"

There should be a point about Emails being absolutely rubbish for collaboration. Email clients are a good way to push items to FriendFeed, but as a workspace to collaborate, no.
- zeroinfluencer
Couldn't agree more re: email. The amount of valuable company data and knowledge that's lost in people's Outlook folders is distressing: and the larger the organization for which one works, the more lost and distressed one gets.

Mat - there must be an interesting metric in that.

Well, I'm definitely not a spammer but after having worked at several big agencies (Ogilvy, EuroRSCG, Publicis, Y&R), I believe that time has come to adopt tools designed for profesional usage. My favourite is blueKiwi (and to be clear, I sell this solution). Have a look at their website. The future of collaboration is there because it's both "user-centric" and professionally designed for professional usage (with a lot of confirmed successes with multinational clients).

"Georgia Tech Augmented Environments Lab and the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD-Atlanta) has been showing the multiple possibilities augmented reality has for mainstream gaming with the help of a prototype handheld device from Nvidia. It shows how users could create a map, place it on a flat surface and have it act as a level, or in this case a city backdrop to shoot up some zombies. In the video the player uses the handheld to hover over the map like a helicopter hunting down zombies to annihilate before they make a meal out of civilians. The bit where it really gets cool is being able to place real world objects like Skittles in the game to act as bombs and signals. It sounds like the perfect workplace distraction."

A study by Harvard Business School finds that 10 percent of Twitter users account for 90 percent of its content.

Yapılan araştırmaya göre Twitter kullanıcılarının %10'u tüm içeriğin %90'ını üretiyormuş. Twitter kullanıcılarının yarısından çoğu ise 74 günde bir ya tweet ediyormuuş ya etmiyormuş.
