Comandante - How can we understand the lies of this world?

Last night I saw this documentary about Fidel Castro. After it, I don't understant how reality was so modified to "sell" a demoniced history about Cuba and his history. I wish some kind of this documenarys with another dirigents, to see if they can do some arguments like the clever, vitalist, paternal, anti iimperialist and anticapitalism point of view of Fidel.



You can see the english vesion here.
The spanish version:




P.D.: Fidel was a son of a rich spanish inmigrant. Every day that pass, I thing stronger that spanish and the spanish view of life, is a more powerfull tool to build the next step of this world.

Twisting the screen

There is a lot of hurry these days. On a month, 3 Spanish televisions launch their online clones. The video on demand can be considered a realistic way for television, or the meaning of how we watch at that.

But there are curious and interesting concepts that will be forced to evolve as the same way. Ads, users, PVRs …

Last months, we were working on a new format promotion. It was focused on the user generated content, and there was a kindly and viral promotion.

You can test it here (login required)

The aplication was able to generate more tv contents on the own channel, and, surprising, on other channels.



The recorded interview on T5 site
This situation is hilarious...xD

The channel and us, as creators, was very happy with the response of the users. But thinking about and with the facts, there is a starting evolution for the role of user. A new role with clever and interesting offers for evolve the web 2.0 social concept.

Gentlemen, start your engines!

PUBLIC Spanish television

I'm very happy and surprise of the amazing start of the daily news at Rtve, the Spanish public television.

The video on the news site

Only for the screenshot it has to be written on the history books :)
And, if you analize all the project, there will be a very good example of sharing, public and evolved concepts.


P.D: The skin of the player was produced by me, a curious joke of destiny: P

Gandhi's top10 fundamentals

1. Change yourself.
“You must be the change you want to see in the world.”
“As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves.”

2. You are in control.
“Nobody can hurt me without my permission.”

3. Forgive and let it go.
“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.”
“An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind.”

4. Without action you aren’t going anywhere.
“An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.”

5. Take care of this moment.
“I do not want to foresee the future. I am concerned with taking care of the present. God has given me no control over the moment following.”

6. Everyone is human.
“I claim to be a simple individual liable to err like any other fellow mortal. I own, however, that I have humility enough to confess my errors and to retrace my steps.”
“It is unwise to be too sure of one’s own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.”

7. Persist.
“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”

8. See the good in people and help them.
“I look only to the good qualities of men. Not being faultless myself, I won’t presume to probe into the faults of others.”
“Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men.”
“I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people.”

9. Be congruent, be authentic, be your true self.
“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”
“Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.”

10. Continue to grow and evolve.
”Constant development is the law of life, and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position.”

Adobe brings the new window

Today was announced that Adobe and a big group of tech brands launches de Open Screen Project. That is a very good step for the Flash Platform, and one more of the good way for establish a standard to sharing experiences and information across the air.



Personally, I thought that to enjoy and understand all the things that come with this hurry-future, humans need actions like this. There is a lot of information, everyday and, like our brains has empower his capabilities to ingest more and more information, trying to understand and categorize it on a human knowledge way, the objectives of companies evolved unconsciently to a major priority and a bigger and profit market.

I expect that on a few months I will start a post with a phrase like this: Welcome to the new window, and use it to be more clever and agile. It will be wonderful :)

A new point of view for the window

Last days, i'm working on the second phase of Tvpro. This project is actually online, and you can visit and enjoy the channels and movies that were free online (spanish version).

Visit Tvpro.es

The second phase will improve a lot of features and the team will do a hard work to focus the usability to a new levels. A lot of phases are in mind ^_^

A dossier is been doing to empower the sales presentations. You can see a preliminar version here.

Actually a lot of televisions are migrating they contents to the internet platform. BBC is breaking with his Iplayer. In Spain, a lot of televisions are following the steeps of BBC, and we ara finishing the new site for RTVE (the spanish public channel), we launch recendly Telecinco, and we are talking with other televisions and other enterprises to deliver their contents to the biggest audience (multichannel is supported).

I think , this movement is necessary to follow the future, and I'm surprised about the speed of this "migration"

The corporation; knowing the enemy

I saw a post from cfetherston that question about how we can separate the brand with emotions. This is a bizarre process, but very necessary actually. I think, a first step is know the enemy, and their plan, and to help this objective, nothing better than "The Corporation", a distribution free film by Mark Archbar, Jennifer Abbott and Joel Bakan.

The Corporation is today's dominant institution, creating great wealth but also great harm. This 26 award-winning documentary examines the nature, evolution, impacts and future of the modern business corporation and the increasing role it plays in society and our everyday lives.

See and share it:

YOUTUBE - Chapter 1 of 23


Enjoy and learn :)

The future of elections

The firts spanish elections debate can be analised with this interactive tool.
I think it is a wonderfull aplication for everyone, and movements like that, from a public enterprise, improve the power of the information.



A bigger version here.

Communi (where I'm working actually) develops this kind of widget trying to encourage and simplify the way like people understand the issues of a general elections.

Thanks to Raúl , David, Xavi, Hernán and Ezequiel for their efforts.
