For some, success is a car. For others, family, money, a good position in a company. For me? Doing something i like and making money from it.

The pay wall experiment
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 mainstream or famous for it, you just have to write down stuff that matters to other people. I pay for Loren’s content because i believe he is right about facebook, twitter and this whole web2.0/mashup/social stuff.

Will we ever learn?
Romania is in the middle of a political and economic crisis. We will get over it, one way or the other, in the next few years.
The problem is: will we learn anything from it? My guess is not. So capitalism fails again.

what what?
I think a lot of people got life wrong. Life is not about gathering stuff (cars, money, houses, gadgets), but rather about living a full life. What is the point of having a lot of money if you work 16 hours a day? When will you enjoy life and your money? Or how? Buying an expensive car or clothes?

Why isn’t Microsoft jumpin’ in Adobe’s support?
It’s murder what Steve Jobs is doing to flash. The problem, after Jobs’ hypocrisy and such is that he is right. Flash sucks a lot. That is why Microsoft, who holds about 95% of the computer market today isn’t saying anything. Because they know, too, that flash sucks for PCs even more than it sucks for Apple. Flash’s beeen crashing Firefox and IE for a long long time, but it’s the way people make money. Microsoft could turn it off, of course, but then there will be no more banners, no more sites and no more use for a computer. What’s the point of having a computer with internet if you can’t view a site (that is ad-supported) or a video or a game? None.
