“Like many people we’ve been glued to the news unfolding in Egypt and thinking of what we could do to help people on the ground. Over the weekend we came up with the idea of a speak-to-tweet service—the ability for anyone to tweet using just a voice connection.
We worked with a small team of engineers from Twitter, Google and SayNow, a company weacquired last week, to make this idea a...
Let me remind you Dear Internet Providers what the law that rules over you says...
Silly me, I thought the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications...
On Contracts and Commerce.
Human beings are wired I believe to achieve via consent the value of things and sometimes the value of fictions.
Take money for example, it being just a debt note and we attributing value to it.
But more than that, I want you to go back to the earliest knowledge you have about civilization (whatever that word means). When you think about trade and public markets, you will notice that there were...
Isn't it ironic. Dont you think?
The fact that I went to law school more than a decade ago, and its only now that I realize how far from just and right all laws are.
Ask yourself please, how much law do you really research and understand?
How big of a picture you have about your human status?
Do you think ALL laws apply to you and that you will be forever “persecuted” as a failure to comply to all of them, even if...
We have let public servants to become our absolute masters.

In effect, the constituent power resists to constitutionalisation. “The study of constituent power shows, from the judicial point of view, an exceptional challenge that concerns to his hybrid nature… The potency that constituent power hides is insurgent to a total integration to a hierarchical…

continuations:
We live in a time of amazing transformation. Nowhere has this been more apparent recently than in Tunisia and Egypt where people are fighting against entrenched regimes and for democracy. In both places the Internet has played a critical role as an organizing, information and documentation…

American Idol, reinvented
No, its not your imagination. I am actually writing about American Idol.
Apparently the talk now is that it successfully reinvented itself, even if Simon and the others (sorry for my lack of Idol knowledge) left.
Today I heard stories from the show on the metro, on the street and even in the government office.
On the news you can see the forensic study of the judges and the reason why its going...

spaeth asked: Hey how's it going lol
Remember?
Somewhere there, inside of you, under the layers of education, programming, trending, fashion, idolization, religion and indoctrination lies a human being.
Once upon a time you were free from imposed ideas and opinions. You actually knew much more than you know now. You knew how to read other humans beings and to relate to Nature. It was “natural” for you to laugh, to cry, to hurt, to...

Selfish and Altruistic? Yeah. that's right.
You’ll hear this a lot from me. Standing in honor.
Im not some old dude in a “epoque’ movie on some epic trial talking about the value of my heritage and my doings.
No.
(phew)
When I speak about standing in honor I’m referring to the way we handle ourselves in life. Im talking about that starting point that we use (or should) as reference.
When I feel there is...
Who are we, really.
No, Seriously. Who are we?
Are we them? Are they us?
Call me crazy but I don’t see that division so clear. I don’t have it in me to create judgement so quickly. call me anal when it comes to human you know?
Information is Information. There are facts out there somewhere (in our human created realm) that we interpret (because none of us can help giving it our twist even if it is with...
Bravo for the Alternate History message and a human voice expressing concern.
High Five Naomi Klein. <= You rock.
Labels are for jars and Im just a merchant.
I truly don’t believe there is a limit to human interaction. You might already know that I don’t think we are right or wrong, but what I might have not stated here clearly is that my goal in life is not the search of that “right’ state.
I thrive with your knowledge and wisdom. Your opinions, to me, are the currency I use to trade my own.
You enrich me. An area of...
Je me souviens Haiti. No to Duvalier.

Oh Insecurities.
Of course Im insecure about going back to school. not only it has been more than a decade, but school is the ultimate panel of judgement.
Only preparing my application has taken me to places in my soul I haven’t been in a long time. I am bending my will to play a game of acceptance, doubting some words, because in the end they are not mine.
So i burned that application.
Not literally (its...
