Conference

A very quick post to say that I’ll be in Brunei for a conference.

I really should be boarding!

Finally got access!

Participation levels in online services

Ewan McIntosh is surprised to find that participation in YouTube, Flickr and Wikipedia is relatively low compared to the overall visitorship of the respective sites.

I’ve given a few reasons why this may be so. While I wasn’t too surprised, I expected the percentages to be slightly higher. Then again, it’s quite telling that Yahoo! Photos has (soon to be had) more users than Flickr.

Are we, Web 2.0 advocates, making a mountain out of the participative molehill?

Wong Kar Wai Retrospective at Pitch Black Cafe

Wong Kar Wai Retrospective

Pitch Black is a movie-and-art themed cafe along Haji Lane, near Arab Street. It’s a quiet place to chill and there’s a screening room - equipped with a Blu-ray DVD player - on the 2nd floor.

Next week, they are doing a Wong Kar Wai Retrospective. I’ve watched most of the films that will be shown. I’ve not watched Fallen Angels, so I might go down for that on Thu, 10 May.

Food wise, they’ve got nice potato wedges. The drinks are so-so. The teh tarik shake (or something like that) was nice and thick the first time I went there, but was progressively more diluted on my subsequent visits.

The screenings are free with $5 minimum spent. A food item and a drink should more than cover that.

Pitch Black, 63 Haji Lane, +65 6392  3457

It's a Cafe and Screening Room
