Deutschlandfunk did an interview about blogs yesterday. It’ll be broadcasted and streamed today at roughly 11:07 am. Alternatively via flash-player.
The interview as Quicktime. (1,3 MB)

Another of yesterday’s interviews was more about social network applications with the Handelsblatt, btw. they have bloggers by now.

As already mentioned someplace, somewhere it’s wrong to adapt the
software to the users and their cultures. Adapt the users and their
cultures to the software. But beforehand architect excellent software.
If
you understand software as an expression of a language with grammar,
syntax aso than it becomes quite clear that it’ll shape us more than
vice versa. It’s only a question of time ’til we decide to adapt to
software.

Michael G Wagner | Weblog:
“Underneath the Counter-Strike identity of eSports, professional
computer gamers therefore actually train and compare competencies in
networked and multimodal communication strategies.
In some sense, eSports can be seen as inverse usability
engineering where users train to optimize their physical and mental
capabilities to accommodate a fixed software environment whereas
traditional usability engineering has the purpose to adapt software
environments to the usersâ needs.”
