BLOGS COMO FORMA DE COMUNICAÇÃO
Espreitem este artigo da Online Journalism Review sobre a importância dos Blogs como forma de comunicação nos tempos que correm. Excerto:Are Weblogs a passing fad or a revolutionary new form of communication and publishing? That's still an open question, but the presence of blogs in the academic environment makes it more likely that they'll survive and thrive in the long term.
Educational types aren't just using blogs to teach or spread their research. They are turning their research lens on Weblogs themselves, whether the context is within schools of law, journalism, communication or library science. Alex Halavais studied the group dynamic at Slashdot and the way bloggers followed the news. Kaye Trammell studied the political content of celebrity blogs. Jill Walker is studying timestamps on blogs and our modern obsession with time. And Cori Dauber both studies blogs and writes a feisty one.
Though these academic researchers and many others work within different departments at different universities, they are all what I call "blogologists" -- people who are studying the dynamic of blogs and trying to understand how they fit into our society. Not all of their research is related to journalism, because they see blogs as a much larger phenomenon that is changing our modes of communication and group thought. In fact, many of them downplay the effects bloggers have had on the media and discount the idea that bloggers are creating a new New Journalism.

A VOZ
A voz não é sempre igual. Há uma voz ao vivo, de circunstãncia. Há uma voz ao vivo, mais pessoal, mais próxima. Há uma voz ao telefone. Há uma voz ao acordar. Há uma voz ao fim do dia. Adoro ouvir a evolução da voz. E adoro ser surpreendido por uma voz.

COISAS QUE IRRITAM
A falta de indicações claras de direcções um pouco por todo o país, dentro das vilas e cidades. E, sobretudo, a dificuldae em descobrir, na generalidade das cidades e vilas (a começar por Lisboa) o nome das ruas. Aquelas placas nas esquinas dos prédios, em lugar incerto nas mais das vezes, são um desespero total.

POIS É
Não perder a inteligente nota do Homem A Dias, do Alberto Gonçalves, sobre o infeliz e recente disco de Caetano Veloso: Bonitinho mas ordinário
É chato acontecer numa altura em que ele elogia o fatito novo do Homem a Dias, mas uma vez na vida eu haveria de discordar do Ricardo Gross. O Foreign Sound do Caetano é, reconheço, bonitinho. Aliás, é a coisa mais bonitinha, indigente e inócua produzida por um sujeito de talento nos últimos anos.
Arriscando a que me partam um violoncelo na cabeça, aproveito ainda para culpar o sr. Jacques Morelbaum. A colaboração deste senhor com Caetano Veloso, que já vai longa, produziu, por junto, um grande disco (Livro), e bocados de outros dois (O Quatrilho e Noites do Norte). No mais, tornou-se fórmula, cansativa e aconselhável a átrio de hotel.
Tenho, é claro, saudades do Caetano da Tropicália, o melhor de todos. Mas por este andar começo a lembrar com nostalgia as fases (só) aparentemente desorientadas de Cores, Nomes ou Velô: é preferível o falhanço heróico ao aborrecimento de ciência certa.

JOGO E ESTUDO
Sérá que os jogos electrónicos têm efeitos positivos no estudo? Um artigo da Wired diz que sim. Excertos:LOS ANGELES -- The conventional wisdom about the video-game industry is that it's all about entertainment. But a group of 350 game designers, educators and government officials think that games can be used as a tool to teach critical thinking, and in the process, improve American education.
To Henry Jenkins, host of the Education Arcade symposium held here before the Electronic Entertainment Expo, the connection is clear. He said he remembers that during the 1996 presidential campaign, he gave his son a Doonesbury election game to play.
"My son, predictably enough, disappeared into his room, never to be seen from again," said Jenkins. "When he came out, my wife and I were watching election coverage on CNN. And he said, 'Oh, I get it, Dole is in New York, Kemp is in Illinois ... they're all in high electoral-value states. And he was suddenly explaining to us something that most Americans didn't figure out until after Florida 2000."

PORQUÊ?
Porque é que os Iraquianos estão a reagir como reagem? Ora eleiam lá este artigo da New Yorker, que vale bem a pena conhecer. Excerto:Before the American invasion of Iraq, Dr. Shaker said, only one murder victim arrived at the city morgue each month. This statistic underscores two conditions of Iraqi life under Saddam Hussein: the state had a near-monopoly on killing, and most of the victims of the state disappeared into unmarked mass graves. One unintended effect of Iraq’s liberation from Baathist tyranny has been the widespread dispersal of violence. In occupied Iraq, between fifteen and twenty-five murder victims arrive at the Baghdad morgue daily, most of them with gunshot wounds. Shaker estimated that five cases a week involve Baathists executed in reprisal killings; their families typically retrieve the bodies without informing the police. With barely functioning courts, a weak, ill-trained, and often corrupt new police force, a foreign occupier that has failed to provide security, and a pervasive atmosphere of lawlessness, Iraqis don’t expect the justice that was denied them during the reign of Saddam Hussein to materialize anytime soon.

POESIA ENÉRGICA
Impetuoso, o teu corpo é como um rio
Onde o meu se perde.
Se escuto só oiço o teu rumor.
De mim, nem o sinal mais breve.
Imagem dos gestos que tracei,
Irrompe puro e completo.
Por isso, rio foi o nome que lhe dei
E nele o céu fica mais perto.
(Eugénio de Andrade)

E nele o céu fica mais perto.
