I love my MacBook.

Night tour of the Zooomr HQ is funny. Kristopher Tate, the sole programmer at Zooomr.com, records the tour of the HQ with his Mac Pro’s or iMac’s iSight. He doesn’t even close Adium, his instant messager as he spins around in his chair, comments about an applet, then immediately shows off pure geek gold: a 6 x 9 foot whiteboard, a 30 in. flat screen and a 21in flat screen (which he won), a bean bag chair, and a framed Flickr photo (also won).

“It has the amenities of the Googleplex on a very very very miniturized scale.”

“We don’t have a chef, so I have to make my own food.”

Zoomr HQ is basically a house. One in which someone is using the exercise equipment, and “I don’t know why he should be using our equipment, but that’s okay, because we like to share.” One in which there are “a lot of living accommodations for our programming staff at Zooomr HQ: one”. Don’t get me wrong, any professionalism this video lacks reflects positively of the website. Kristopher, who “just got back from Japan,” displays the standard persona of a 20-year old web design wiz kid, wearing a tree-shrubbing Darth Vader t-shirt and asking how tired his eyes look.

Zooomr Mark III is still in development (starting from scratch), so of course the single programmer managing 15,000 users and now infinite storage space looks tired. Zooomr is an amazing operation, frequently referred to as “Flickr on steroids.” It gives away features that Flickr charges for, and incorporates emerging technologies, like OpenID. I still find it hard to believe Zooomr.com is an army of one. Keep up the good work, and do get some sleep, Kris.

This is the origin of my alias, my AKA, my self-created nick name.

Where’s America
MC Andre

This really bites we have rights
Our forefathers put up a fight
They saw the light, why can’t we
It hasn’t dimmed we refuse to see
the truth
is out there but don’t dare
to look you’ll be called a crook,
an anarchist or the Antichrist but
there’s no heist no terrorism worse than the prison
of thought and speech we will reach freedom,
and pull it back from darkness, we need them
to understand there’s a balance of power—I’ll shout it even louder
Between national security and safeguarding our privacy

Structure restricts what you express what’s put in the press.
Standing up for your beliefs is now illegal.
It’s medieval the way they leave all
What was fought for cannot be sought for the fear
nearly exposes the unopposed
Assumption surveillance advancements can be used in conjunction
with unintended functions of technology to monitor activity
we’re in fear and captivity (it’s riveting), now

What you say, what you see,
what you read, what you wrote,
what you think and believe
who you trust, how you vote

All of this the government hears, and uses it for fear.

If you haven’t already guessed it,
I’ll tell you the truth lest it
gets you in jail for being nonconformist be a fundamentalist of the Constitution
America swore to uphold the rights of the few after the Revolution but there’s confusion Yeah I knew this line was insecure. Once again I’ll assure you the fact is
You are tapped, scanned, cross-matched, recorded, and hacked.
Email that fails to avoid inclusion of a pollution of any word in a top-secret list of shifty keywords in a third of all suspected languages causes
Alarms and images, tax-supported, distorted, and unreported
But trust me they activate to ensure the protection of the state, meditate on this, they swallow everything. Remember the following:

Your beliefs should be freely spread or our basic freedoms are dead.
