  • Just How FAR Can Facebook Advertising Go? ...and Would Goolge Put Up With XXX Tactics

    Facebook has become a social media behemoth with an insane reach, more than a billion users around the planet, the majority logging into the site several times daily, it’s hard to see how advertisers can go wrong. When it comes to advertising on the world’s biggest social media network it isn’t simply the mass of users that Facebook push, the huge amount of data the company keeps on each user is it’s major draw, advertisers are coaxed with the opportunity to target exactly the audience they want. Among mainstream advertisers theres still apprehension, a bunch of discussion on whether Facebook advertising is affective, deeper; does Facebook advertising simply generate leads, or does it drive direct sales? Clearly the argument isn’t simple, Facebook offers advertisers several layers, from sponsored posts, full pages and mobile feeds to tradition button ads. And with multiple formats within its 10 categories, the offer is extensive. With such a long reach, a massive combination of placement options, sidled up to metrics that are more measurable than almost any other platform, why wouldn't you advertise on Facebook? :: Read the full article »»»»

  • Alison Brie! SEXTING?

    We’ve been on a rant for the last six months – SEXTING! – nasty, dirty celebrities taking nasty dirty pix of themselves NAKED! Our tag has been all about the irresponsible behavior these supposed grown-ups have inflicted on young impressionable minds. Along the way we’ve been truly surprised at who has popped up in the SEXTING STAKES. Everyone expected Lilo to get her kit off, no one was hugely shocked at Gossip Girls Blake Lively admiring her breast bits? Scarlett Johansson kind of came out of left field! BUT: ALISON BRIE????

  • CIA Global Jihad Unit Chief OUTED

    Two independant documentary makers have uncovered conclusive proof that the CIA bungled, then covered up the bungle of pre-9/11 intelegence. In the process of investigating what seems like a script written for Chevy Chase, the film-makers have coerced - gently – the CIA to Out one of it’s own covert agents. The hi-jinks the CIA has undertaken pre and post 9/11 are well documented. The FBI has since 2004 been overtly critical of the renegade agency and it’s seemingly gung-ho approach to national security, intelligence and the inept use of it’s covert agents. It seems the CIA operative in charge of the agency’s Global Jihad Unit had serious lapses in judgement, bungling not only the pre-9/11 intel gathered, but losing a suspect – who later flew flight 77 into the Pentagon. ”In plain English, the 2004 FBI report says that the CIA knew a year and a half before the attacks that a known Al Qaeda bad guy named Khalid Al Mihdhar was likely heading to the United States and didn’t tell FBI or INS. Mihdhar would be one of the first two 9/11 hijackers to arrive for the plot, the one reportedly closest to Osama Bin Laden himself” According to Ray Nowosielski and John Duffy, her name is Alfreda Frances Bikowsky and she is a CIA analyst who is partially responsible for intelligence lapses that led to Al Qaida’s 9/11 attacks on the U.S.A.

  • NY's Steampunk Home?!

    WE LOVE STEAMPUNK! New York Film-maker Jeremy Noritz has taken a bog standard New York box and created his fantasy – A Steampunk Home! It certainly isn’t everymans taste - it’s a heap of fun though. The Steampunk house has now possibly outgrown Mr Noritz in it’s notoriety. . The apartment is a much lighter rendition of K. W. Jeter’s view of Steampunk, much more livable. This homage to anachronistic technology is 1,800-square-meters of punked-up bliss. Enter this odd-world through it’s Portal - literally, the front door is modeled on a ships sealed steel hatch, complete with porthole - and you are in a fantasy right up our alley. A private terrace and two full bathrooms, wide open kitchen and an office, all hidden away by walls of antique gears, cogs and piping. Although he loves his house very much, Jeremy Noritz says his job has him traveling a lot, so it’s time for somebody else to enjoy it full time” Some of the world’s most wonderfilled properties can be found in New York City.120 West 29th Street, Chelsea sits right in the middle of this category! Noritz has created an amazing retro-futuristic submarine fantasy inside an apartment co-op in Chelsea on West 29th Street. It’s Jules Verne meets Tim Burton, said his broker, Parul Brahmbhatt, of Core. She describes this brilliant space as “An 1800-square foot surreal apartment featuring retro industrial, and steam punk elements” And just for a change, an agent has undersold . . . V★P READ MORE

  • They Said What!? Julian Assange

    In Australia it’s a rarity to require a good reason to ditch a once-loved-hero! Over the past 18 months Julian Assange has been our pinup boy for freedom, taking the powers that be to task, keeping the bastards honest blah blah. Oh how the mighty fall ! ! In a true THEY SAID WHAT? moment, the WikiLeaks founder denounced – with much vitriol – a new unauthorised autobiography after he failed to prevent the publisher printing an unfinished manuscript. Titled Julian Assange: The Unauthorised Autobiography, the book is the result of more than 50 hours of interviews between Assange and a ghost writer. The transcripts were handed over to British publisher Canongate in March. Assange says he asked for more time to finish the book, but Canongate says that after reading the first draft Mr Assange declared that “all memoir is prostitution” and withdrew his support. Canongate has admitted Assange had attempted to stop the publication but said it was proud to publish the “passionate, provocative and opinionated” book. M★C READ MORE

  • UC Berkeley Scientists Use Magnetic Brain Imaging to Reveal the Movies In Our Mind

    Researchers from the University of California-Berkeley have used functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging – fMRI – and computational models to watch clips of movies inside the minds of people who just viewed them . . . researchers were able to decipher and reconstruct movies from peoples minds! As you move through the world or you watch a movie, a dynamic, ever-changing pattern of activity is evoked in the brain. The goal of movie reconstruction is to use the evoked activity to recreate the movie you observed. To do this, we create encoding models that describe how movies are transformed into brain activity, and then we use those models to decode brain activity and reconstruct the stimulus. Jack L. Gallant and his Berkeley team have decoded brain signals created by viewing moving pictures. The researchers were able to “read the mind” by deciphering and rebuilding the human visual experience. “This is a major leap toward reconstructing internal imagery,” said Professor Jack Gallant, a UC Berkeley neuroscientist and coauthor of the study published in the journal Current Biology. “We are opening a window into the movies in our minds.” The research may lay the groundwork for brain-machine interface allowing people with cerebral palsy or paralysis, for example, to guide computers with their minds. The goal of the experiment was to design a process for decoding dynamic natural visual experiences from human visual cortex. M★S READ MORE

  • READ A BOOK! Mark Mazower: Dark Continent

    I would normally churn through a book in a day, not skimming but reading. Mazower’s Dark Continent took 3 days and I’m now on my 3rd round, simply, I LOVE THIS BOOK. The premise is one that I’ve always found arduous to put into words: Our now perspective of history has little to do with the events that took place, the events that created what we now call history. Mazower invites current day Europeans to come to embrace the latest governing ethos - The European Union - to come alive in their continent . Nations subscribing to it, distinct in language, religion, law, and historical experience, have little to guide them in their adventure into the unknown except the previous collective experiments with which, in this century, the continent has been hounded near to death. In todays Europe this is more relevant than ever before. Dark Continent provides an alternative history of the twentieth century, one in which the triumph of democracy was anything but a forgone conclusion and fascism and communism provided rival political solutions that battled and sometimes triumphed in an effort to determine the course the continent would take. Mark Mazower strips away myths that have comforted us since World War II, revealing Europe as an entity constantly engaged in a bloody project of self-invention. Here is a history not of inevitable victories and forward marches, but of narrow squeaks and unexpected twists, where townships boast a bronze of Mussolini on horseback one moment, only to melt it down and recast it as a pair of noble partisans the next. Unflinching, intelligent, Dark Continent provides a provocative vision of Europe’s past, present, and future! M★C READ MORE

  • SEXTING! Lindsay Lohan

    According to our source Lindsay Lohan came scrapingly close to being the next celebrity to fall the victim of a cell phone leak – Sexting, Naked Self Portrait via iPhone. Luckily for LiLo, the samaritan who found her phone had no interest in getting involved in all that Hollywood gossip – you have to love a New Yorker. Our favorite 25-year-old starlet reportedly lost her phone while out and about in NYC for Fashion Week. LiLo apparently dropped the phone while leaving the V Magazine party. How did the finder know that it was LiLo’s phone? Apparently the phone said “Lindsay Lohan’s Phone” when the semaritan turned it on! She’s a clever girl our LiLo. The phone doubtlessly held some incriminating photos that LiLo wouldn’t want anyone to see! Don’t worry though, there won’t be any naked pix of Lindsay hitting this here interweb anytime soon. LiLo was said to be “ecstatic” when her phone was returned. She was also relieved that the person who found it didn’t try to extort money from her or sell the photos to the tabloids. Lucky for LiLo, one of the few remaining nice people in the world did the right thing. … the phone contained a heap of important contacts, phone numbers and emails, as well as personal photos and “a lot of stuff” that she wouldn’t want published. Looks as though our LiLo’s luck has finally turned!? D★D

  • HTC’s Sensational Beats Audio: Sensation XE

    Introduced back in May, HTC’s 4.3-inch Sensation flagship smartphone is now available in an upgraded überversion – The HTC Sensation XE. There are two major differences between the original and the new XE. The main improvement will the incorporation Beats Audio, a technology that improves the audio playback on the model by enhancing both software and hardware that is supplied with the phone. Hardware wise, the update is via high quality new headphones, offering a much better frequency response especially on lower frequency sounds.
