Amazon FPS

Written by Zealus on August 6, 2007 – 7:05 pm -

Last Friday I have signed up for Amazon’s FPS (no, not First Person Shooter), but Flexible Payment Service. That’s about all the news I have for now, but we’re working on an e-commerce web site that probably will be using AFPS for payments. Stay tuned.

Impress me

There are (mostly) two ways of telling a story. One (the common approach) is to lay out the dull facts. Another is to lay out the facts in such a form that will keep me (or anyone else for that sense) interested. Dish depends on a sauce, as we all know. The only reason I remember that French Navy fleet won one (and the only) battle while protecting US from Great Britain is because it was told in an unforgettable way.

The problem, it seems, is that now “audience” has seen it all. What’s the sauce of the day?

In the recent article Wired tells about the artist and Rutgers professor Hasan Elahi, who was mistakenly targeted by FBI as a suspected terrorist. Yep, he’s the one who decided to put all his life out there in the open to make sure authorities know he’s innocent. “I’ve discovered that the best way to protect your privacy is to give it away” – damn, now every paranoid would set up his lifeblog online. Hear me, good people of Internet – next thing you know would be some smart ass sending out bulk spam with his/her daily activities.
