iChat AV in CNN interviews…


The big CNN is trying iChat in face-to-face interviews.

I don’t really know why it’s not happening in much more broadcasters.

And i would enjoyed if the people that organizes conferences and such, could use the iChat AV, and it can be very interesting because you can cut costs and time using it.

[ from Macworld UK – CNN commits iChat AV experiment, and the US show is hosted by Wolf Blitzer and is called “Situation Room”. there is one interview with Joi Ito that he talks about in his blog. ]

This little story is funny but tell us a lot about the netherlands way of thinking.

I really like it, practicality and good sense doesn’t describe all of it.

I saw it in Expat Forums, but the news story is in ananova.

Couple had sex on police car

Dutch police have arrested a couple for having sex on the bonnet of their patrol car.

The couple, from Groningen, said they hadn’t noticed the two policemen sitting in the car.

One of the officers got out of the car and told the couple to stop what they were doing and leave.

The 25-year-old man was arrested after he refused and insulted the policeman, reports Het Laatste Nieuws.

His 33-year-old lover was also arrested after she tried to stop the car from taking her boyfriend away.

A police spokesman said: “The law doesn’t say you can’t make love on the bonnet of a police car.

“But the policemen have to be available for duty. If the two lovers had left when they were told, nothing would have happened.”
