open source

Etherwaves

In the keel water of the Google Wave fiasco it is becoming clear that popular co-writing service etherpad.com will be opensourced before it is terminated. Good news indeed, on that day we should have a great candidate for a collaborative manuscript editor to integrate seamlessly with ThePactProject.

Power to the Pixel!

Next week I'm off to Power to the Pixel's, "Cross Media Forum" in London. PTTP seems to be a very nice organization, they write themselves on their homepage: !--break-->

 "Power to the Pixel is a company dedicated to supporting film and the wider media in its transition to a digital age with a passion for connecting creative talent to audiences. All its cross-media services are dedicated to a core idea that success is driven by knowledge – most critically of how to work in a rapidly-evolving, customer-driven international market."

 

 Right up The Pact's alley!

 

The program for the first day is really interesting and will most probably give a lot of inspiration and thoughts from smart people regarding open source and possible business solutions. 

The second day hosts a pitching contest, The Pixel Pitch. There we should see how other intelligent projects have been set up, and we might rip off (be inspired by) some ideas, true to the Open Source-spirit! :) I'll be alert with pen, pad and camera!


Oh, I haven't written anything about what happened at Haugesund. I'm sorry about that. But it was good. I met more Canadians than I thought, and some of them might be helpful further on. Will get back to that when I pick up those thoughts again.
