Pričala sam  Vam  kako sam objasnila svojim prijateljima šta je to twitter.  Rekoh Vam tada da sam uspela pronaći caku kako nekome ko nije u ovim našim vodama objasniti pojedine pojmove s kojima se sve više i više hteli oni  ili ne susreću.

Pa tako,  draga moja prijateljice,  ajd’  sad da ti ova Verkić lepo,  natenane (vrag zna kako se ova reč piše),  onako po naški objasni šta je to blogosfera, blog i šta su blogeri.

- Viš’ ti si na ovoj našoj pijaci svaki dan i poznaješ je  u dušu. Velika, prepuna svega i svačega. Šetkaš njom i zafrkavaš one jadne bakice.

- Naravno da znam. Nemam ja muža kao ti da mogu sedeti kod kuće.

- Ajd, ajd, ………. pitala si me pa sad ćuti i slušaj. Tako se ti  možeš šetkati i  ovom našom blogosferom (našom pijacom, samo ti ovde ne trebaju nikakve pare)  kad ono dodješ kod mene i čitaš #pratipetak ili pak ideš od tezge do tezge i gledaš (čitaš) ponudjeno. Klikneš ovde,  pa skokneš tamo, klikneš onde pa skokneš vamo .  Jes me ti razumela?

Idemo dalje. E sad,  na toj pijaci imaš svašta lepog. Tu ti je voće, povrće, mlečni proizvodi, ma čuj ti mene,  pa ne moram valda baš sve da ti crtam, kapiraš nešto i sama.

Tu su  poljoprivredici koji imaju svoju zemlju, rade na njoj, i taj svoj rad unovčavaju, to su ti profesionalci,  imaš preprodavce,  a imaš i one fine drage tetkice koje prodaju po koji cvetić ili koje jaje, ne zbog preživljavanja, nego čisto iz zadovoljstva, radi druženja, eto čisto da ne budu kod kući same nego da malo izadju  medju svet, da progovore,  da se razonode.

Eto to, ta tvoja pijaca, ti tvoji prodavci, tvoje bakice s kojima se svadjaš, to voće, povrće, one očupane kokoške, oni prelepi cvetovi, fine slasne jabuke, kiseo sir, ta raznovrsnost, ta ogromna vrednost, taj znoj i utrošeno vreme, ta njihova energija, osmesi, to njihovo čavrljanje s kupcima, prolaznicima,  e to,  to ti je naša  blogosfera, to su blogovi,  blogeri, to su teme o kojima oni pišu.

Jes’ sad razumela? Uostalom, voliš ti mnogo brbljati, otvorim ti ja jedan, pa ti piši.  Samo znaj jednom kad udješ u te vode, ne ispliva više iz njih nikad, jer jednom bloger je uvek bloger!

Nego, sećaš li se ti, zajedno smo čitale,  šta  tada Pedya napisa u komentaru na blog post o twitteru: „Ustvari, twitter ti je kao da kod frizerke, koju voliš kao brata, pričaš sa svekrvom, a osećaš se kao kod kuće…“, ………. ajd pa videćemo šta će ovog puta napisati .Vidiš i ovde postoji komunikacija, i ja pričam s ljudima kuckajući na ovom čudu a ne moram nigde izaći.

Čujemo se, a sad bež’  više,  moja mala buduća blogerko!

Softverski div je svojoj listi nekoliko stotina ili tisuća patenata, koliko već da ih posjeduje, pridodao još jedan – patent za gašenje operativnog sustava.

Microsoft je zahtjev za izdavanjem ovog patenta predao Američkom patentnom uredu točno prije pet godina, a odobren mu je 31. kolovoza 2010. godine.

Pojednostavljeno, Microsoft je patentirao gašenje operativnog sustava tj. komande koje se u trenutku gašenja izdaju OS-u te akcije koje nakon toga slijede, poput pop up prozora koji korisnika pita za potvrdu gašenja, pop up prozora koji korisnika obavještava da ima otvorenih dokumenata i sličnih. Ako sam ja dobro shvatio.

Bilo kako bilo, sistem gašenja OS-a prisutan je u apsolutno svim operativnim sustavima na planeti i iskreno ne znam što točno odobravanje ovog patenta znači tj. koje će posljedice na druge OS-ove imati.

A ništa, ovo je još jedan razlog da nikada ne gasim svoje Linuxe .

Savet Evrope preporučiće vlastima 47 zemalja članica da u svojim uredima i dokumentima više ne koriste "seksistički jezik" i time da doprinesu ravnopravnosti žena i muškaraca.

Vreme je da se priča o dolazećem biZbuZZ dešavanju, omiljenom nam jesenjem skupu ITjevaca. Uskoro će javnost saznati ko će u Nišu biti u ulozi predavača poslednjih dana oktobra. Kao i do sada, na “meniju” vas očekuju poznata imena IT profesionalaca uz neke  “mlade nade” domaćeg online biznisa. Takođe, predstavićemo najzanimljivije regionalne projekte, i spremiti nekoliko iznenađenja, o kojima nećemo sada

Sa ponosom vam saopštavamo da je u konkurenciji organizacije događaja, biZbuZZ konferencija dobila podršku Registra Nacionalnog Internet Domena Srbije (RNIDS), u vidu sufinansiranja projekta. Osim značajne finansijske podrške, nagrada je još jedan pokazatelj važnosti biZbuZZa, kao i vrednovanja višegodišnjeg truda i zalaganja NiiT organizacije.

Konkurs RNIDSa je objavljen 26. aprila 2010. godine, a prijave za sufinansiranje projekata podnošene su do 31. maja. Stiglo je ukupno 35 prijava. Komisija je 01. juna otvorila sve prijave i pristupila razmatranju i konačnom odabiru.

13 projekata koji su ocenjeni najboljim, dobili su podršku od RNIDSa i učešće u sufinansiranju u ukupnom iznosu od preko 2.800.000,00 dinara. Ukupna vrednost svih projekata je preko 10.000.000 dinara.

O svim uvaženim sponzorima, koji razumeju značaj prisustva na biZbuZZ konferenciji, posvetićemo više pažnje u narednim blog unosima.

In an effort to become a better blogger, I’ve recently been studying the different types of readers that visit Bit Rebels. One thing that I’ve learned, which I find fascinating, is that there are basically three different kinds of readers who visit our blog and your blog.

As a blogger, it is important to understand this and write for each of these three different types of readers. Some of our visitors may lose interest if we don’t accommodate them in our writing and formatting. I hope this article will help you recognize the different readers and help you blog more effectively.

The sponge reader will read every single word of your post. They will stay on your blog the longest of the three, and they will really try to understand where you are coming from and what you are saying.

Sponge readers tend to be detail-oriented. Many times they will leave a comment sharing their opinion, or informing you of a word you misspelled or punctuation you missed. I really like it when sponge readers visit Bit Rebels because they are the only ones that actually read our entire articles. Hahaha As a blogger, that makes me happy. I welcome their opinions and suggestions!

The skimmer reader will do just that, skim your article. They will rarely read every word because they are in a hurry. They will only stay on your blog for a short time, usually a minute or two at the very most.

The skimmer has developed the skill of being able to “get the gist” of an article by just skimming it quickly. For them, that’s all they need to do to feel good about it. In my opinion, the majority of readers to our blogs are skimmers. We live in a fast-paced world, we have new information coming at us constantly, and many of us fall into this category. I know I do, I’m definitely a skimmer.

The reader that is a first sentence fireball does what the name implies. They will read the first sentence of each paragraph, check out the images, and that’s all. Many times these people are visually stimulated, so if your blog looks blah… they won’t even read the first sentence.

These fireballs may have dozens of blogs in their Google Reader and many times they read a lot of content every day. They aren’t interested in the whole article; they just want to know the bare bones basics, like a quick outline. People that are very active on Digg are known for reading a ton of content daily, but they don’t actually read everything they click on. In my opinion, that type of reader would fall into this category.

In order to be effective bloggers, we need to write for all three of these readers. In a nutshell, that means…

For the sponge reader:
Write quality content from beginning to end, simple as that. Before hitting the publish button, be sure to double-check your spelling, grammar and punctuation!

For the skimmers:
Separate your writing into paragraphs. If you write in one long stream of words, you will lose your skimmers. In other words, make your content scannable.

For the first sentence fireballs:
Remember to use eye-catching images that are sized appropriately. Be sure to separate your paragraphs so that the first sentence of each one starts a new thought or gives a new piece of information. The key here is to make it look good. Formatting and styling are especially important for this reader.

Are you addicted to Twitter? Do you have an iPad? Even if the answer to both is “no” right now, after you see Twitter for iPad, those answers are going to change — quickly.

Yes, the wait is over. Launching tonight in the App Store is Twitter for iPad — the first official native iPad app from the company. We all knew it was coming (Twitter even said so a few months ago), but it has been a long wait. It was definitely worth it.

Like most people, I wander into hyperbole from time to time. But it has now been a few days since I first played with Twitter for iPad, and I still think it is hands-down the best iPad app out there. It’s that good. With all due respect to Reeder, Instapaper, Flipboard, and Pulse, this is now going to be my go-to app for just about everything related to reading news. It’s simply such a great experience for reading tweets — and more importantly, reading the links your friends share.

What Twitter has done is create an amazing user experience for reading information. This is thanks to an intuitive user interface that layers on top of itself. So, for example, if I click on a link in my tweet stream, I’ll have a new layer that rolls over to show that webpage in a customized browser window. If you’ve used Flipboard, it’s somewhat similar, but better because it’s much easier to go back to where ever you previously were before you clicked the link. You simply swipe something to the side to move it temporarily or swipe it again to get it off the screen (in portrait mode anyway, where there’s less space).

Something else that’s awesome: when you highlight a tweet by clicking on it, it’s now pinned to the top or bottom of the screen as you scroll through your stream. This is great if it’s something you want to reference. A lot of thought has been put into these type of saving state actions within this app. It’s simple to save a draft and go back to it, for example (much easier than with Twitter for iPhone). Or to reference one of these pinned tweets in your own tweet.

There are also some great new gestures that Twitter came up with for this app. For example, if you pinch-outward on a tweet, it will unfold to show you more information about the Twitter user. Better may be the way you can swipe down with two fingers on any tweet to see a full conversation in context. It’s the little things like this that make the app great — Apple-like, even.

Overall, the app looks and feels quite a bit different from Twitter for iPhone (which Twitter built from Tweetie — developer Loren Brichter’s client that they acquired earlier this year). But Twitter’s Leland Rechis assures me it’s using all the same stuff on the backend. In fact, Twitter is now a universal app — meaning it’s one app that will work on both the iPhone and iPad, it will just look different depending on which device you’re using it on.

Rechis also says Twitter started experimenting with some newer things on the iPad version that haven’t yet been brought to the iPhone version, but undoubtedly will. A great example here is that when you click through to a user’s profile page, you’ll see at the bottom a list of users similar to that user that you may like to follow.

Rechis also notes the importance of the logged-out view — something Twitter worked on before the iPhone version launch. Twitter wants to make the service as useful as possible to people even if they don’t have an account. The idea, of course, is that they’ll hopefully sign up for one — and this app may give them the most reason to yet. When logged out, you’ll be able to see tweet streams based on hot topics.

“Tweets in general are not just what I’m doing, they have an incredible amount of metadata,” Rechis says speaking to why they created this layering idea for the app. Almost 25 percent of all tweets now have a link in them, he says. This app is perfect for those tweets, and content consumption and exploration in general.

Rechis notes that one of his favorite things about tablets is how they eliminate window management. At the same time, you need some way to manage all this information. He notes that Brichter’s original concept was stacks of sheets of paper that you quickly shuffle through. Other members of Twitter including Rechis refined that idea and the end result is Twitter for iPad.

That’s roughly 750 words about the app — but you really just need to see it, and use it. It will definitely be my go-to way to browse Twitter from now on. It’s that good.

Look for it in the App Store shortly. It will be a free download.

Update: I should note that for some of these more advanced gestures, there is a slight learning curve. That said, you can do everything without using those gestures, so it’s not a big deal — it’s just icing on the cake. And yes, Twitter is trying to come up with the best way to teach users about these new gestures.

Internet zvezda Ekrem Jevrić Gospoda nije sa odobrenjem prihvatio da fraza „Kuća-pos'o, pos'o-kuća“ iz njegovog hita, koji je na internetu pogledalo preko pet miliona ljudi, postane reklamni slogan kampanje za nove HP poslovne računare, koju je pokrenula kompanija "Pakom Computers". Bilborde i oglase na kojima se pored novih računara pojavljuje sada već čuvena fraza, Ekrem smatra neovlašćenim korišćenjem njegovih stihova i zbog toga je spreman da tuži firme koje stoje iza kampanje koja jasno aludira na aktuelni Jutjub hit. Da li je Ekrem živeći u Americi između ostalog naučio da svako može da tuži svakoga, još uvek nam nisu prokomentarisali iz "Pakom-a". Ali, ako ovaj slučaj nekada i dospe na sud biće zanimljivo videti kako će Ekrem pokušati da dokaže da polaže pravo na frazu i da li je pet miliona klikova na Jutjubu u današnje vreme dovoljan dokaz na sudu. Ekremov menadžment u Beogradu, nije želeo da se izjasni, sa obrazloženjem da je reč o poslovnoj tajni, međutim, Ekremov menadžer iz Amerike Began Čekić, koji se za sebe kaže da je vlasnik autorskih prava, tj. teksta i muzike čuvenog Ekremovog hita, kaže da će se tužbom pozabaviti čim u Beogradu pronađe advokata.
