Alleys, street corners, parking lots. Do you know where light would help a bit more nocturnal comfort and security? this is the call by the Stockholm City to create a brighter and safer environment for Stockholm citizens and visitors.
Simple app with very nice use of re-coloring in the Flash API- a blackened map with lit markers[sic], you can place lantern(marker) where you think the light is needed most. Very impressive! Thanks @pamelafox to sharing.

Very cool campaign for Sharkweek on Discovery Channel. Both Discovery Channel and National Geographic have understood very well how the internet 2.0 works. No hard selling that scares away consumers, but honest sharing of video content that is entertaining and unique.
National geographic uploaded 1400 videos in the last 3,5 years and has a 220.000+ fanbase (via viralblog). To obtain those numbers they opened up their database of videos instead of protecting them because "DVD-sales would go down, if people can just download it on the internet".
National Geographic understood that if you don't share your videos yourself someone else will. And if someone else is doing it you're no longer in control of the quality which immediately reflects upon National Geographic as a brand. Go check it out.
München - Auf der Suche nach Fotos eines bestimmten Shootings oder auch nur auf Motivrecherche in allen Regionen der Welt: Grafik- und Werbeabteilungen steht nun mit "Geotagging" eine komfortable Suche zur Verfügung- die der Münchner Mediendienstleister w&co MediaServices als PlugIn in seine Multichannel-Marketing-Lösung OnlineMediaNet integriert hat.
Das von w&co und seinen Partnern Meyle+Müller und Stuber entwickelte OnlineMediaNet bietet dem Versandhandel und Handel, der Verlagsbranche und der Industrie als vollständig integriertes Multichannel-System eine zentrale und modular aufgebaute Lösung zur Planung, Erstellung und Veröffentlichung von Marketingmaßnahmen für...Wo immer das Shooting stattfand: Nur ein Klick zum gewünschten Foto bei Pressehof komplett lesenAs you may have seen, the Google Docs blog announced a preview of the Google Checkout store gadget back in July. The Google Checkout store gadget, available in Google Labs, allows you to create an online store with inventory managed from a Google spreadsheet and payments accepted through Google Checkout.Since then, our engineers have been exploring ways to simplify store creation. Today, we're excited to introduce a new feature for the store gadget: a wizard that streamlines the store creation process. By automating the manual steps in the original instruction guide, the new store gadget wizard should leave you with even more time to focus on your business.As with the original release, no complicated coding or technical tasks are required, and you can get your first online store up-and-running in under five minutes. The new wizard helps you embed the store on Blogger, Google Sites, iGoogle, and other websites. We hope you'll find the new version more intuitive and enjoyable to use.
Building a website is becoming easier and easier. You don’t need to know how to program to build a website. Now you don’t even need to know how to program to build applications or online storefronts. I particularly like Google’s approach of creating web-tools based on the way non-programmers think. It says a lot about their philosophies around user experience.
Let’s say that someone wants to build an online store. They aren’t thinking about what that looks like in terms of database schema , relationships, and tables. They never really give thought to the idea of checkout flow. No, the average person thinks of their spreadsheet which contains last month’s inventory. They can’t figure out why they can’t just upload their spreadsheet and a store gets formed. Why not build a tool that actually lets users do this?
It’s easier said than done, but that’s exactly what Google has done with Docs + Checkout. This project may seem like a small one for a giant like Google, but it’s actually pretty significant what they are doing. They are making normal spreadsheets functional. They’ve also got a form creator that lets people create polls and field email addresses for newsletters. They even have samples up that allow you to create Google Maps applications with Google Docs Spreadsheets: Spreadsheets Powered Map.
It wasn’t too long ago when the only way of creating a store online was by coding something yourself, using generic software which was terrible, or spending hundreds of dollars on proprietary software that was just slightly less terrible. Now you can do pretty much everything... from a spreadsheet... for free.
