  "Passengers would board the “cloud” using ladders, then simply relax as the lighter-than-air structure floats to its next destination. There would presumably be some sort of safety rail feature to keep passengers from falling off like human-size raindrops."

  We are just finishing a one minute dance video for a contest with Gás. We mix 3D effects based on kinect depth map with HD video... really cool!

  Interesting open source crypto-currency project. I wonder if one day we can change to something more decentralized monetary model like this.

• My blog and commenting

  I`m working on my blog of course, and I don`t expect a lot of readers for all of this thing are mostly interesting for myself.
  
  But because I passionately support open conversations I will do most of my writing publicly even if my thoughts are sometimes random or inaccurate.
  
  I`m just thinking about the importance of commenting and how should the comments be handled. Using Facebook social plugin is cool because it has the strength of provoking conversations, but usually these comments comes from Facebook are mostly short, random thoughts of the moment, and they are not suitable for adding precious information to a post, because just for one thing: google will not index the comments provided by the social plugin.
  
  Other option is using the website`s own backend to store comments. The disadvantage of this method, that adding comments needs some identification from the user which takes time and may discourage them from commenting. I also found some services which provide professional commenting for your site... I don`t know yet how to handle this...

• Ed Borden talked about Pachube

  Yesterday Ed Borden was in Kibu and gave an inspiring lecture on what they are working on these days in Pachube. I previously followed the history of Pachube from the point when it was founded so there was not so many surprising things mentioned for me.
  
  A couple of special cases about how people use pachube was really interesting though.
  
  One example is related to the Fukushima disaster. People started to stream their own measures of radiation via Pachube after it turned out that the information the governments provided was not trustful.
  
  Marian Steinbach also made a visualization about the continuous change of radiations measured in Gremany.
