I just wanted to watch my favourite magazine on Arte…
… I went to http://plus7.arte.tv clicked on Tracks and…. got this message on my screen!!!!!
Désolé, vous devez résider en Allemagne, France, Guadeloupe, Guyane Française, Martinique, La Réunion, Polynésie Française, Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, Wallis-et-Futuna, Mayotte, Nouvelle-Calédonie ou Territoires Français du Sud pour voir cette vidéo.
I cannot believe it!!! I am living in french speaking Canada, in Québec and I cannot watch Arte!!! WTF! It worked some weeks ago, before they launched this plus7.arte.tv thing… 
Flickr Pro
I had to update my Flickr Pro account to get another year. Hm. I am not sure if I will use Flickr and feed Yahoo with money for the rest of my life…
Where’s chriscar.com?
Not much going on in here since a while. The reason is that I am busy with the launch of www.radioenergie.com as well as a relaunch of SOTW. BTW, I recommend Zeitgeist by Bruce Sterling.

Support “Google will eat itself”
The art project GWEI (= Google will eat itself) has been fully censored by Google, which means it has been removed from all Google Search-Indexes worldwide.
The idea behind GWEI is simple:
Google Will Eat Itself generates money by serving Google text advertisments on a network of hidden Websites. With this money GWEI automatically buy Google shares. GWEI buys Google via their own advertisment. Google eats itself - but in the end “we†own it. By establishing this autocannibalistic model we deconstruct the new global advertisment mechanisms by rendering them into a surreal click-based economic model. After this process GWEI hands over the common ownership of “our†Google Shares to the GTTP Ltd. [Google To The People Public Company] which distributes them back to the users (clickers) / public.
Let’s break the silence and put a link to this project on our sites and blogs: http://www.gwei.org. Give Google back to people! GWEI is an interesting case how to imagine a new global public sphere. How to reverse privatization and rethink a truely public Internet without the Googles and Yahoos.
