Ugotavljam,da Googlov urejevalnik tabel ni najbolj zmogljivo orodje, če si zaželiš kaj več od enostavne diseminacije podatkov vendar bo za trenutne potrebe kar zadostoval. Tabele, ki sem jih začel prejšni teden sem relativno redno obnavljal za tiste bolj radovedne a vseeno en kratek povzetek rezultatov.

Homer zdaj več kot očitno vodi z dokaj veliko prednostjo pred najbližjimi zasledovalci. Na drugo mesto se je dokaj neslišno prebila Hina, tretje mesto pa si v večnem boju delita Hanibal in Heli. Hooch je žal še vedno najmanjši vendar pogled na relativno pridobitev glede na začetno težo razkriva, da je že prehitel Helvetico, Hano in Heli! Danes so tako vsi že prešli mejo 200% glede na težo prvega dne.

Zdaj so tudi že nekajkrat imeli priložnost ogleda zunanjosti brez strehe nad glavo, zgradili smo tudi novo domovanje vendar o tem več kdaj drugič. Plus fotografije seveda…

Google Spreadsheet isn’t the most fun thing to use when you need something more complex than just sharing tabular data. But it works… I’ve been updating the online weight charts every few days in case anyone was or is interested.

Homer has clearly taken the lead now with Hina sneaking her way into second place. Heli and Hanibal continue to battle it out in shared third place. Hooch is unfortunately still lagging behind however he has overtaken Helvetica, Hana and Heli! in terms of relative weight. All of them have no gone past 200% gain on their birth weight.

They’ve been out in the yard a few times now and we’ve built them a new home for the next few weeks (I hope) but more on that in a later post. And photos of course…

PS: 23 is purely coincidental and in no way related to the movie or Michael Jordan.

BBC should concentrate on quality rather than quantity in online video. At least that’s what Pete Clifton of BBC News Interactive said at Future of News Conference.

“We should think more about what that page does in the round and come up with a piece of video that absolutely complements the text… we should do less video but be much more focused on how it works and give it a higher profile where it can work alongside the story.”

I agree completely, but I would add something extra that maybe doesn’t really apply to news pieces but still… fragments. I may or may not want to see an entire show. Sometimes all I want is a short piece and having the option of going directly to that piece is invaluable. Andraz Tori and others with MMC at RTV Slovenija are definitely onto something with Odprti kop (open pit). Thumbs up for our national public broadcaster for finally doing something exciting and (I’ll dare say it although I cannot confirm) innovative.

For those not fluent in slovene ;) and those that may not understand what it’s all about… in short it’s a service where they combined subtitles (if I remember correctly our public broadcaster is required by law to provide them) with video and in effect making the content searchable, quotable and playable in segments i.e. you have to option to play only the few seconds that are relevant to your search query. They also include links to slovenian chapter of wikipedia which could also prove useful in the future as it expands.

I despise everything Apple, mostly because people, for no apparent reason, tend to turn into sheep at mere mention of white rounded boxes and partly because everytime I find myself around one of their products it tends to die on me. No BSOD or some fancy effect like that either. They just die, freeze or give me some other signal I’m dealing with clearly malfunctioning equipment.

There are two things I do appreciate however:

1. They provide very useful guidelines for Optimizing Web Applications and Content for iPhone By all means follow them for other similar handheld devices
2. They were among the first to support H.264 (otherwise known as MPEG4 part 10). Incidentally, H.264 will be the standard used for slovenian digital terrestrial broadcasting (DVB-T), among other aplications. I wonder if they’ll ever adopt Dirac…
