Second Life metaverse assault on Anshe Chung
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under Movies
A bunch of griefers in Second Life staged a members-only metaverse assault on “virtual real estate tycoon” Anshe Chung yesterday, during a staged SL event with CNET reporter Daniel Terdiman. A torrent of pixelated male genitals rained upon the victim, whose offline name is Ailin Graef.
Steve Hutcheon of the Sydney Morning Herald filed a comprehensive report of the incident here. Snip from Steve’s report:
“She is very popular, and some people don’t like her,” said CNET reporter Daniel Terdiman, whose Second Life avatar (online persona), GreeterDan Godel, was interviewing Anshe at the time of the attack.
“She’s made a lot of money, and is one of the most prominent of all Second Life residents. So to some people, some griefers, that makes her a target.”
Griefers are so-called because they create grief. Their antics are designed to interrupt proceedings in virtual worlds and games usually for no other reason than because they can.
Attacks like the one launched against Anshe are triggered by a program code that generates self-replicating objects.
Much like email spam, these “griefspawn” attacks can chew up system resources and slowing down performance. They can sometimes even trigger network crashes.

First Emakina Hackademy this sunday
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under Movies
Our Emakina Academy events, targeted to our customer and prospects, are a great success, usually the room is full. So I had that new idea (monthes before Yahoo even think of its Yahoo Hack Day) : an Emakina Hackademy for our passionate staff and this sunday was the first edition…
Seems the first Emakina Hackademy was a complete failure. I should have probably avoided picking the sunday after the Nuit Blanche 2006, which was coincidally the sunday of 0110, free concerts all around belgium… AND the day of the only event of Watermael-Boisfort, a brocante that blocked the whole access to the office.
So I was alone this sunday, but … I had great fun. I have been evaluating those hot web technologies :
- Drupal in VideoCasts
- Django in Screencast
- Plone in Movies
- Rails in ScreenCasts
- TurboGears in Video
- Cake PHP in silent ScreenCasts
- Symphony in two Screencasts
Also interesting stuff I watched this sunday :
- Sean Kelly’ comparison of Web Application Dev Frameworks
- Jason Goldberg’ (CEO of Jobster) talk about the Future of Hiring Technology
- Danah Boyd lesson about Social Network Video
- Dan Gilbert’ about humans inability at predicting what will make us happy
- Seth Godin about Permission Marketing, Ideas as virus, marketing as stories, etc. He also claims that technology without marketing can’t win in the marketplace.

All Of MP3 est-il legal ?
Posted by Brice Le Blevennec | Filed under Movies
Le site russe All of MP3 offre une collection gigantesque de CD téléchargeables au prix ahurissant d’environ 1 EUR chacun ! Le site est légal car en Russie ce type de site est assimilé aux radios et donc parfaitement autorisé. Il y a toutes les fonctionnalités : pré-écoute, charts, etc. Le paiement via VISA est sécurisé. Bien sûr, le téléchargement est soumis aux lois applicables dans le pays de l’acheteur (donc, uniquement copie privée). Après lecture détaillée de Is Allofmp3 legal? je m’interroge encore. Est-ce legal en belgique ? N’hesitez pas a poster vos commentaires sur ce sujet.
