Disclaimer

I strongly advice people who never-ever needed an aspirin in them life to not read this.

Before continue reading bellow, you must know this post is the first episode of a new serie, some based (also) on effects-events I`v writed about back in april.

…………………………..

Introduction

Once upon the time was a blog. That time mean before april 06, 2007.

Content

What happen ?

But I want the thing people see when they come here now to reflect what this blog has always been about, so I’m including a few of my favorite pictures from the last two years here.

One of those pics is this :

A new reader (but with some brain training) will be at least surprised. Start something not from beginning, but from a certain moment ?
How about education training ? Should be started from high school then if knowledges from primary would be needed, do what ?
If is about a relation, push things to a level and start from there ?

Oh, this is nothing ..

Let`s go to ABOUT page.

… is the co-creator of the bestselling Head First books (the brain-friendly series from O’Reilly)…

… since her days as a game developer …

Holly UNIX !

Co-author of a bestseller and have no domain name ? game developer and have no back link on about page ? Just wonder .. she developed tic-tac-toe game ?

No, that`s not all.

Kathy Sierra – because about she`s blog is this post – is the one who generated Tim O`Reilly`s war against freedom of speech back in april.

The shit started from a suposed DEATH THREAT aimed to her by somebody.

But let`s let facts to talk :

So, I’ve moved my original “threats” post–something many people find very difficult to look at– to a different web page — rather than keeping it as a post here. If you want to read the original content of the post (it lost some formatting), it’s here.

Do not bother to click on link, here`s the screen :

I`ll be agree to be converted to any and all existing religion if THERE (see above screenshoot) is anything about the threat …

But .. was there any threat ?

Seems not .. more likely was a missunderstanding. That was also pointed by T. O. on a second instance, AFTER he successfully reacted positive to idea to listen the other side of story .. yet he done that AFTER he put all story on BBC-something, wikipedia and who knows where else.
And AFTER he flamed blogosphere with the idea of badging blogs = segregation = divide et impera = cut the freedom of speech etc.
Sure, T. O. had cared to make others “episodes” about the issue (except the initial one) unavailable to public – and no archive link on his blog too …

Therefore, all issue was blow in the wind – as what had start the “thing” – and big big publicity options for both Tim and Kathy.

However, a shallow passing by on several OLD posts on K.S. blog revealed to me, personaly, that :
- blog is for peoples who are VERY deep into a certain area-culture of USA and native english speakers;
- most of posts are relating – promoting others opinions;
- many times – not allways – she avoid to be very clear on one side or another (do not forget, i`m not native english speaker, not awared who are peoples she keep quoting and so on);
- keep reading there I can`t stop to have a “something sound false” impression.

Yet, certain things I found there – be them K. S. ideas or not – were good and correct.

……….

Conclusions

This post was generated by two main issues :

- from last post`s comments, several are “missing in action”. Surprising (not) is that all I can`t spot`em any more were ones doubting blog author – yet not in threatening way. All is left in comments are “sirup” carebears`s words of worshiping. Whorst : despite all “prays’, no K. S. comment-reply, at least a “thanks guys” …

- this blog and certain “events” there have generated lot of newspappers and internet articles willing to enforce a wrong idea in the name of a “looks good” ideal, yet false and dangerous.

Well, well ..

Again subject of blogwrestling© post was changed in last minute, again for objective reasons.

I want to spread the word about a blog I watch for some time now. The guy is the author or coauthor of at least three projects – about cycling-coaching, about punk music and about .. wait a minute! .. about :

I’m generally a nice guy, but when it comes to all the get-rich-quick gurus, I get pretty irritated, and it shows!

This is the guy’s name and purposes, but you are here to read about his :

Well, if this blog isn’t a good one – one of best I noticed on blogosphere – then is the 747 who hit the Pentagon building on 9 / 11.

What I think, and strongly belive and powerfully backup, is that one can’t get bored reading it.

Get some samples :

I figured it was some new ad service from Google, like their radio ads, that would allow you to earn money that Google could keep for themselves after banning your account.

The $97 ebook phenomenon might slow down, only to see a surge of $37/month membership blogs. This in turn will give blogging a bad name, much like the internet marketing industry as a whole.

This will be soooo different than anything else in the past. I have a feeling that this will be the biggest trend yet, so remember, you heard it here first!

–

Ya see, the blog is challenged to this wrestling is rather a team mate than a .. enemy. Sure, I may say sometime is not harsh enough but however, while so few are outthere going to rant about true faces of so called gurus, about the realities on blogosphere – and not only – or about real good-bad potential of certain things, internet marketing sucks dot com worth a close follow.
