Harry Potter's spoiler t-shirt

Posted by bordalix Tue, 31 Jul 2007 11:34:00 GMT

Some of my friends are huge Harry Potter fans, and I'm always kidding with them by saying that I will make the worse t-shirt ever: with the information leaked from Harry Potter's last book, I will do a t-shirt telling the end of the saga, and ware it through the sidewalk, in the book launch night. Imagine all the people waiting for twelve o'clock in the cue, and suddenly being confronted with the spoiler. Of course I'm kidding, I would never do a thing like that, I'm not (that) evil, but someone is.

This guys have made the t-shirt. Fortunately, the launch night has gone, since the temptation would be huge! >:-)

Click here to see the t-shirt. Note: spoiler ahead.

Update: It can get more evil than I thought:

A headteacher caused some distress by reading to about 400 children from the last page of the final Harry Potter book at a primary school in Somerset.

The new iMac keyboard?

Posted by bordalix Fri, 27 Jul 2007 19:23:00 GMT

Engadget received a few photos of what is claimed to be Apple's new keyboard for the iMac computers. I don't know if this is true or not, but I'm sure of one thing: this keyboard is magnificent. I wonder how will it be on the usability stand point.

Google advertising in video

Posted by bordalix Thu, 19 Jul 2007 19:05:00 GMT

A great snoop from 45n5, a video with Google advertising in YouTube movies. The system is pretty smooth, the ads are not that intrusive, and the interactivity allowed amazing (be able to link an ad to a movie, and make that movie run over the YouTube movie is great):

Meanwhile, eMarketer expects online video advertising to nearly double in 2008 to $1.3 billion USD, and TechCrunch posted an excelent article, with a round up of the possible players in this market, worth reading.

Great times are expected in a near future.
