Facebook está morrendo

Amplify’d from www.aarffsa.com.br

O Facebook deu certo por acaso. Zuckerberg estava no lugar certo, na hora certa, com o produto certo. Isto fez do Facebook um sucesso. O produto, não seu modelo de negócio, insustentável no longo prazo. O Facebook tem sua receita baseada num modelo ultrapassado, mesmo diante de uma base de clientes como nenhuma empresa jamais possuiu. Ao invés de criar um modelo de negócio inovador, o Facebook priorizou o aumento da base. Acreditou ser este o fator principal de geração de valor para a empresa.

O Google+ está chegando. Ele vai destruir o Facebook. O Google, sim, construiu um modelo vencedor, disruptivo, com fórmula complexa e eficiente, que é o Adwords/Adsense. Um modelo que beira a perfeição. E uma empresa que é capaz de criar um sistema como este atinge um grau de competitividade, que a torna imbatível diante de players como o Facebook.

De todo modo, o maior responsável pela morte do Facebook não será o Google. Seu algoz é o próprio Facebook, por causa de um modelo frágil, sujeito a questionamentos sobre privacidade e de usabilidade tosca. O Google vai apenas acelerar o processo. Read more at www.aarffsa.com.br

Grandes danos causados pela democracia à humanidade:

O ostracismo de Aristides na Grécia Antiga, a libertação de Barrabás ao invés de Jesus em Jerusalém, a ascenção de Hitler na Alemanha e... as acusações contra Delúbio no Brasil.

Isto segundo o raciocínio do advogado de defesa de Delúbio Soares.

Honeyboy Edwards, Delta Bluesman, companion to Robert Johnson, Dies at 96

Amplify’d from www.nytimes.com

Mr. Edwards’s career spanned nearly the entire recorded history of the blues, from its early years in the Mississippi Delta to its migration to the nightclubs of Chicago and its emergence as an international phenomenon.

Over eight decades Mr. Edwards knew or played with virtually every major figure who worked in the idiom, including Charley Patton, Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf. He was probably best known, though, as the last living link to Robert Johnson, widely hailed as the King of the Delta Blues. The two traveled together, performing on street corners and at picnics, dances and fish fries during the 1930s. “We would walk through the country with our guitars on our shoulders, stop at people’s houses, play a little music, walk on,” Read more at www.nytimes.com

"Libya's spectacular revolution has been disgraced by racism"

Amplify’d from m.guardian.co.uk

A rebel slogan painted in Misrata during the fighting salutes "the brigade for purging slaves, black skin". A consequence of this racism has been mass arrests of black men, and gruesome killings – just some of the variousatrocities that human rights organisations blame rebels for.

An explanation for this can be found in the weaknesses of the revolt itself. The upsurge beginning on 17 February hinged on an alliance between middle class human rights activists and the working classes in eastern cities such as Benghazi. Rather than wilting under repression, the rebellion spread to new towns and cities. Elements of the regime, seeing the writing on the wall, began to defect. Military leaders, politicians and sections of business and academia sided with the rebels.

there was no institutional structure able to express this movement, no independent trade union movement, and certainly little in the way of an organised left. Into this space stepped those who had the greatest resources – the former regime notables, businessmen and professionals, as well as exiles. It was they who formed the National

Transitional Council (NTC). The dominance of relatively conservative elites and the absence of countervailing pressures skewed the politics of the rebellion. Read more at m.guardian.co.uk

Michael Moore tells how he was the most hated man in America

Amplify’d from m.guardian.co.uk

In his 2003 Oscar acceptance speech, Michael Moore denounced President Bush and the invasion of Iraq. Overnight he became the most hated man in America. In an exclusive extract from his new book, Here Comes Trouble, he tells of the bomb threats, bodyguards and how he fought back

'I'm thinking about killing Michael Moore, and I'm wondering if I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it … No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out [of him]. Is this wrong? I stopped wearing my 'What Would Jesus Do?' band, and I've lost all sense of right and wrong now. I used to be able to say, 'Yeah, I'd kill Michael Moore', and then I'd see the little band: What Would Jesus Do? And then I'd realise, 'Oh, you wouldn't kill Michael Moore. Or at least you wouldn't choke him to death.' And you know, well, I'm not sure." Glenn Beck, live on the Glenn Beck show, 17 May 2005 Read more at m.guardian.co.uk

PALAVRAS: Eli Roth

O fanatismo, sob qualquer forma, me deixa aterrorizado. A devoção fanática a uma causa – religiosa, política, mesmo equipes esportivas – muitas vezes vira uma desculpa para deixar fluir nossos lados mais violentos. Quando as pessoas vêem outras à sua volta que sentem o mesmo que elas, acreditam tão fortemente em sua causa que de repente as regras regulares da sociedade e do comportamento deixam de se aplicar a elas, e suas ações parecem ser justificadas porque todos em volta deles sentem da mesma maneira.

A violência contra os outros agora se torna aceitável, e o lado mais escuro, mais primal de nossa natureza humana aflora. Me lembro de garoto indo ao estádio dos Yankees absolutamente apavorado por estar usando uma camisa dos Red Sox, porém quando eu ia a um jogo dos Red Sox atormentávamos qualquer um numa camisa dos Yankees a fim de ensinar a eles a lição de não usarem uma camisa dos Yankees no nosso pedaço. Se eu tivesse me encontrado com essas mesmas pessoas num edifício comecial, teria sido extremamente polido, e mesmo ofendido se pensassem em mim como sendo uma pessoa violenta, o que, por todos os meios, não são. Mas com ambos vestindo a roupa certa no lugar certo revertemos a algum estado animal e justificamos avançar para cima dos outros.

Vejo isto acontecendo agora na América religiões e partidos políticos mais do que tudo. Se não está conosco, está contra nós, e se está contra nós então está contra tudo que é bom e decente e deve ser destruido. Todos estão gritando e gritando até que o outro perca a voz e parece que não existe fim à vista. Isto me deixa aterrorizado. Isto e sapos gigantes.

- Eli Roth

Australian newspaper defend its right to call Crumb a pervert

Amplify’d from www.dailytelegraph.com.au

The Robert Crumb controversy: What happened to freedom of speech?

For artists, it's the ancient tale. Picasso was regarded as a dirty old perv by politicians. aacÉdouard Manet was pilloried for his casually erotic nudes. Francisco de Goya, Caravaggio, Andy Warhol, Tracey Emin: they all felt the heat. Crumb's 'rape fantasy' cartoons are, actually, often about strong women turning the tables on men: one victim terrifies an attacker by leaping into a crazily sexy pose. Most 15-year-old boys you know would find it hilarious and titillating, along with Crumb's gags about farts. Rape victims - and women generally - are probably less likely to appreciate the joke. This is the principal occupational hazard of art: not everybody is going to like it. Crumb might be tartly honest about his youthful screwed-upness, but he doesn't pretend to be surprised when people object to the notion of women as vaginas-on-legs or his depictions of African Americans as big-lipped golliwogs. He set out to shock.

Funny, I thought civilisation was about everyone being allowed to have a say. I don't think anyone wants to hurt Crumb. But plenty of people want to express a view about his work. Some of them don't like it. Is that so shocking? Read more at www.dailytelegraph.com.au

New Yorkers are flocking to see Banksy´s works – but the world's most notorious graffiti artist isn't happy.

Amplify’d from www.independent.co.uk

Hacked Off: The art show that's driven Banksy up the wall

The Keszler Gallery in the Hamptons, Wall Street's favourite holiday destination, is facing stern criticism from Banksy representatives and his fans after attempting to sell two high-profile works of public art, which were originally intended to brighten up the streets of Bethlehem.

The pieces, referred to as Stop & Search and Wet Dog, were stencilled on to prominent walls in the West Bank city during a visit by the British artist in 2007. They disappeared shortly afterwards, only to re-emerge at the Keszler Gallery in Southampton Village late last month.

News of the sale has angered Banksy enthusiasts, who argue that the works were meant for public consumption. They argue that street art is meaningless – and therefore value-less – outside of its original context, and say that foreign art dealers had no right to participate in their removal.

The gallery takes an opposing view. It insists that the pieces, among seven large Banksy works in its new show, were legitimately purchased and exported from the Palestinian territory. If left unprotected in their original location, they were in severe danger of deteriorating, and by now would almost certainly have been vandalised.

Not everyone's convinced, though. "I just find this so sad," said Sebastian Buck, who runs the street art blog Unurth. "Some hedge fund dude is going to be able to buy these things that would otherwise have remained out in public for thousands of people to enjoy. Street art is meant to be viewed in its natural environment, not in a gallery or in some rich guy's house. That's why it's called street art." Read more at www.independent.co.uk

Primavera árabe completa nove meses e bate à porta da Europa

Amplify’d from m.noticias.uol.com.br

Enric González El País

Nem o Afeganistão nem a Líbia jamais tiveram instituições sólidas, ou um sistema judiciário à margem das tradições clássicas, ou uma classe média, e isso torna improvável que se transformem em sociedades do tipo ocidental em um futuro previsível. Acontece que as palavras "liberdade" e "democracia" funcionam nesses casos como código que justifica intervenções bélicas de tipo neocolonial, e encobrem tanto o desconhecimento como os interesses pouco confessáveis.

O que já se intui com alguma clareza é que o livro de referência para interpretar esses compassos introdutórios não parece ser "O Choque de Civilizações", de Samuel Huntington, no qual se vaticinava uma era de conflito permanente entre o Ocidente e o islã, mas sim "Orientalismo", de Edward Said. Em sua obra, o ensaísta palestino proclamou que o Ocidente só era capaz de olhar para o mundo árabe através de um caleidoscópio de preconceitos e de um profundo complexo de superioridade, e por isso sua visão sofria uma distorção que de alguma forma alcançava a visão que os próprios árabes tinham de si mesmos.

Por enquanto, ficam muitas perguntas sem respostas. E o fragor revolucionário aumenta dia a dia. Read more at m.noticias.uol.com.br

The article that left Robert Crumb afraid to go to Australia

Amplify’d from eddiecampbell.blogspot.com

Smutty show a comic outrage

A SELF-CONFESSED sex pervert whose explicit comic drawings cannot be shown in Australia is to deliver a talk and hold a special exhibition at the Sydney Opera House. Cartoonist Robert Crumb's visit, funded by the Opera House and endorsed by the City of Sydney, has sparked outrage with sexual assault crisis groups describing the France-based American artist as "sick and deranged". Crumb, a "seminal" cult comic cartoonist from the 1960s regarded by fans - including the City of Sydney - as legendary, and a genius, is renowned for extreme drug-fuelled drawings, depicting incest, rape, paedophilia and bestiality.

"These cartoons are not funny or artistic - they are just crude and perverted images emanating from what is clearly a sick mind," she said Read more at eddiecampbell.blogspot.com

A carta que Crumb escreveu justificando a sua ausência (em ingles)

Amplify’d from www.smh.com.au

Why I can't visit Sydney

the right-wing media sharks at the Sunday Telegraph verily jumped on this juicy morsel. Me, I know nothing of Australian politics. I had no clue that there were such nasty right-wing media manipulators there. Crumb was somebody they could use against the liberals in the City of Sydney . They obviously did a little research, made some calls to the right people, like ''anti-child abuse campaigner'' Hetty Johnston, and got them to rant about what a bad person I am, that ''the Sydney Opera House was endorsing the depraved thought processes of this very warped human being'', ''These cartoons are not funny or artistic - they are just crude and perverted images emanating from what is clearly a sick mind.''

''Cartoonist Robert Crumb's visit, funded by the Opera House and endorsed by the City of Sydney, has sparked outrage with sexual assault groups describing the France-based American artist as 'sick and deranged'.''

The worst part is the apparent irresponsibility of these cynical media hacks. What if I'd gone there, and what if some Mark Chapman-type person who'd read that article decided the world needed to be cleansed of scum like R. Crumb? (Mark Chapman shot John Lennon.) This possibility worried Aline deeply. Read more at www.smh.com.au

Crumb cancelled visit fearing assassination

THE celebrated cartoonist Robert Crumb says he cancelled his headlining appearance at Sydney's Graphic festival next weekend over fears he might have been attacked or, like John Lennon, even killed.

Breaking his silence over his withdrawal from the Sydney Opera House festival, the American comic-book giant said he had been alarmed by the ''hateful Machiavellian tactics'' behind a recent newspaper article labelling him a sex pervert and, he believed, implying he was a child abuser. His wife, Aline, feared for his safety in Australia and told him: ''That's it, you're not going.'' Read more at www.smh.com.au

E agora, o que vai acontecer com os ingressos dos Gaddafis?

Como é divertido ler jornais passados:


Filho de ditador líbio reserva cerca de mil entradas para Jogos

DE SÃO PAULO - Filho de Muammar Gaddafi, Colonel reservou cerca de mil ingressos para a Olimpíada de Londres-2012.
A notícia foi divulgada pelo jornal inglês "Telegraph".
O comitê líbio é presidido pelo ditador. Segundo o jornal, o governo britânico teme que ocorra um grande embaraço diplomático caso Gaddafi decida ir aos Jogos ingleses.
Os organizadores da Olimpíada são obrigados a vender tíquetes a todos os comitês nacionais. A organização ainda lida com críticas a respeito da falta de disponibilidade de ingressos para o público local.

SONHOS

Disse para Haroldo Mourão e Felipe Flexa antes de sair de férias: Dessa vez não vou a Salvador, quero ir a um lugar diferente. 

Fomos então eu e Ana Pinta para o interior. Na Chapada, ficamos chapados pela beleza agreste. A viagem para lá foi de carona, na boléia de um caminhão que sacudia muito. Ana conversava com os matutos sobre a criação de ovelhas. 

No segundo dia acordei cedo e caminhei até a margem de um imenso lago cristalino, silente, profundo que se comportava como um mar, por ter suas marés, nível subindo e descendo no decorrer do dia como a respiração lenta e lunar de ser ancestral caído das estrelas em meio ao sertão baiano. Até onde a vista alcançava. Cansado, me quedei em visita silenciosa.

Quando as águas estão em baixa, me tinha dito Luís Pimentel, voce desce nas pedras pela trilha que começa no poste com a caveira de boi espetada, e chega numa caverna maravilhosa cavada pela água na rocha. De estalactites pingava água tamborilando no solo como os dedos de um gigante entediado. E lá estava Capinan.  

- Sou viramundo virado nas rondas da maravilha - ele disse. 
Pensei: - Quem me dera agora eu tivesse a viola pra cantar.

Um dia, pra cantar.
