Vimeo folks wrote me a nice letter a few days ago, noticing me they have removed a bunch of my videos from my account, videos that were breaking their rules. From 100+ videos, they removed half. I reviewed a few of them and asked myself, and them, how is this video, par example, breaking the […]

There is a well knoww issue that Chrome is not blocking video ads inside videos, even if the adblock rules state the video ad should be blocked. And I am not talking about YouTube videos, either. I have found a workaround for those intrusive autoplay non-skipable videos that some sites use. It requires some work, […]

The whole point of video games is that you’re not moving much. You have a controller, you move your fingers. I’ve watched the “Natal” video, i’ve seen people playing Wii Fit, I’ve played with a touchscreen laptop. Not much fun. After a couple of hours I got tired. Never used it again. Not too useful.

I am a bit dissapointed by the technology around me. I was expecting a little bit more out of the gadgets i own. my car cd-player broke down, after bumping in a hole in the road. roads in Romania are faulty and my cd-player jumps every time i find a rough spot in the road. […]

Loren Feldman, a master of video blogging and social media, has recently put a pay wall on his site. I have bought a subscription, because the man is really pragmatic and knows what he is talking about. The idea behind it is great: produce content people want to pay for. You don’t have to be […]

I was on the toilet, reading one of the few magazines i still buy on a regular basis. And realized why people are buying fewer and fewer newspapers. The web did not kill the press. Press killed itself. It was a combination of lack of professional journalism and news overload. Almost all of Romanian economic […]

So, i bought a Creative Vado HD camcorder a few days ago. I wasn’t expecting much, because I paid for it under 200€. But the thing is great. Very light, shoots 2 hours of 720p video footage, charges from USB. Yes, the Sony TG3 i initially wanted had more features (stabilizer, 1080p, changeable storage, face […]

So I was looking for “tiger attacks” on YouTube. I watched 20 videos and I did not see any tiger attack. I saw a lot of noise, a lot of pixelated video, a lot of talk and a lot of misnamed videos. But I did 20 page views and 20 video views. So I contributed […]
