SAY Magazine / Summer 2011 05 BY NIERO GONZALEZ Yanier Niero Gonzalez is the mad genius behind Destructoid, a popular independent gaming site that reaches more than 3 million people each month. The thought of just five gaming gadgets gives him vertigo, but when pressed to be selective, he picks the following. Nintendo DS Lite The Nintendo 3DS is hands down the best handheld gaming console the company has ever made. That said, I’m not hooked on any 3-D games and the battery life stinks. I’d rather be stuck with a DS Lite. It has a longer battery life, a bigger screen and more color options — and it plays the best DS games without the terrible 3DS MacBook Pro up-sampling. If I must have a 3DS, beam me five years into For me, the MacBook Pro is like Excalibur. Forged the future. Until then, bury me with my ugly DS Lite. with eight gigs of RAM and dual-wielding OS X (Amazon.com, $129) and Windows (a la VirtualBox), this silver bullet runs my games, my life and my business. I also appreciate that it doesn’t look like a man purse or a Trapper Keeper. (Apple.com, $1,199 and up) First Generation PlayStation 3 HDMI. Netflix. 3-D. Music. Photos. Free multiplayer. Social. Blu-Ray. Demos. Etc. The “George Foreman” PlayStation 3 (a moniker given for its curved design) really does do “everything” — because it’s the only model with the PS2 and PS One backward-compatible chipset. These old George Foreman PS3s are still somewhat pricey because of scarcity, but they’re totally worth it if you love those classics and want to see them in glorious up-scaled 1080p and optical 5.1 surround sound. (still available on eBay) “Phantasy Star II” Sega’s “Phantasy Star II” was one of the first games that dared to show what happened when friends, Ion Drum Rocker families, governments and even ecosystems betray I’ll never be a rock star. My ass looks terrible in spandex. Still, I love each other, and it was among the first titles (spoiler the idea of playing music with my friends and hitting things. For ahead) that killed off a playable character in a shocking guys like me, there’s the Ion Drum Rocker drum set for “Rock Band” plot twist. I wasn’t shocked when games finally outsold — an alternative to the game’s plastic drum set that my household Hollywood last year. And I can’t wait until the masses enthusiastically destroyed in no time.

  • Jeśli to Czytasz, Chcesz Być Blogerem. Może Pracujesz W Pełnym Wy
    Nisza Kładąc podwaliny Jakie jest Twoje imię, prywatne? Jeśli to czytasz, chcesz być blogerem. Może pracujesz w pełnym wymiarze godzin, który ostatecznie nie jest dla Ciebie satysfakcjonujący, a w wolnych chwilach zastanawiasz się nad czymś zupełnie innym. A może jesteś dziennikarzem, który chce wejść na blogową rewolucję i odkryłeś niszę, w której do tej pory niewiele było konkurencji. A może czytasz wiele blogów, konsekwentnie przekonanych, że sam możesz wykonać lepszą pracę. Lub pracujesz nad zostaniem ekspertem w określonej dziedzinie i potrzebujesz pracy, na którą możesz wskazać podczas spotkań. Bam! Jesteś na dobrej drodze do stworzenia bloga. Istnieje wiele blogów, ponieważ fan lub ekspert jest zmęczony czytaniem niewłaściwych rzeczy napisanych na temat jego lub jej zainteresowań. W dawnych czasach nazywałbyś tych ludzi „crackpots”, teraz nazywa się ich blogerami. Będziesz jednak wykonywać tę usługę znacznie bardziej inteligentnie i inteligentnie niż niektóre poręcze przeciw rządowi na stronach wydawniczych. Opowiesz historię za pomocą unikalnego punktu widzenia i zestawu umiejętności. Więc o co ci chodzi? Czym jest blogowanie? Co to jest bloger? A co najważniejsze, jak możesz stać się jednym z nich? Blogowanie to dziennikarstwo w trzydziestominutowym terminie. To najprostszy sposób, aby to wyjaśnić. Podczas gdy w Internecie są różnego rodzaju blogi, najlepsze z nich obejmują wiadomości i szybko je pokrywają, dodając trochę zabawy, dziwactwa lub dodatkowych informacji. Posty w blogu mogą być także recenzjami, esejami, infografikami itp., Ale jeśli pokrywasz niszę, musisz być szybki, odpowiedni i czytelny. Bloger jest dziennikarzem. Powiedzieć inaczej traktować to medium, które długo walczyło o miejsce przy stole medialnym. Najlepsi blogerzy prowadzą kręgi wokół „profesjonalnych” dziennikarzy. Blogowanie jest nadal domeną dedykowanego amatora.

Reblogging Gender: Non-Binary Transgender Subjectivities and the Internet By Lee Fraser Abstract: This thesis is an examination of non-binary transgender communities on the internet and the new, non-binary modes of subjectivity that can be read within these spaces. After my first introductory chapter, which situates my work in the context of previous contributions to transgender theory, I approach non-binary online communities from different perspectives. My second chapter reads certain codes of communication within non-binary friendly online spaces (such as Tumblr) as a form of neo-Dadaism, as well as cyborgian manifestations. My third chapter contends with the interactions of non-binary online communities within a society structured by neo-liberal institutional capitalism.

  • Lies, Damn Lies, and Viral Content
    3 Tow Center for Digital Journalism LIES, A Tow/Knight Report DAMN LIES, AND VIRAL CONTENT CRAIG SILVERMAN Funded by the Tow Foundation and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation 5 Acknowledgments Tow’s research director, Taylor Owen, provided the important, initial encour- agement for me to submit a research proposal for the topic of debunking and misinformation in the online press. Tow director Emily Bell was also a critical early supporter. I’m grateful to both of them, and to the Tow Center’s funders, for enabling me to complete this work. Fergus Pitt provided a wealth of valuable feedback and guidance to ensure this paper stayed focused (and on deadline). I’m grateful to Jocelyn Jurich who, as a Ph.D. candidate at Columbia, was in many ways overqualified for the role of research assistant on this project. She added value to the data gathering and analysis, and this work is the better for it. I was also lucky to retain the services of Adam Hooper, a talented example of the new breed of journalist- programmers. He was my first choice to help build the Emergent database. I’m thankful for his many contributions. This paper also benefited from the eagle eye and fast turnaround of Abigail Ronck. She fixed errors, trimmed flabby copy, and improved the work in many ways. I’d like to express my gratitude to the journalists, paranormal investigators, skeptics, and others who spoke with me, filled out questionnaires, or provided other forms of assistance. I’m also indebted to the psychologists, sociologists, linguists, political scientists, and others who have conducted research around rumor, cognitive biases, and how humans process (mis)information.

  • 'I DON't MISS WYOMING' Douglas Coupland Exclusive Download
    I Don’t Miss Wyoming Douglas Coupland ! 1. Introduction Miss Wyoming Book Tour Diary November 2020 The release of the novel Miss Wyoming was promoted with a book tour in 2000. The experience was logged with entries faxed and emailed from the road to a webmaster that posted them onto the Coupland.com website. The following compilation is the recovered diary along with written works related to this time. * * * The tagline in the print advertisements for Miss Wyoming read: “Reinvent yourself today — tomorrow may be too late.” ! 2. Day 01 Vancouver - Montreal January 03, 2000 Canada's National Post newspaper ran a small article I wrote on the difference between truth and fiction. At the end of the article they wrote a list of my books, and included one called Beach Music ...huh? Question: how on earth does a glitch like that happen? It's like an Evelyn Waugh novel. Good photo, though. It looks like I'm a Canadian flag, with my head in the middle of two trees. Oh, in the National Post's Toronto edition, the editors left out the first two letters in 'FICTION' in the headline, thus creating a new word for the English language, 'CTION.' I flew on Air Canada today. They now own Canadian Airlines, so this was my maiden flight on Canada's new air monopoly, 'Mapleflot.' I truly dread the next few years. The hotel is dead empty in Montreal. The absolute end of the holiday season, and I nearly have the whole place to myself. This actually did happen to me once, in Edmonton, Alberta, during a previous book tour.
