Ο Steve Jobs στο D8 Συνέδριο

Much has happened since Apple CEO Steve Jobs last appeared on the D stage. At that time, in May 2007, the iPhone had not yet arrived at market, the app ecosystem it would usher in was still gestating and the iPad was simply a long-running rumor.

So the conversation onstage focused largely on the iPod, iTunes and Apple’s (AAPL) relationship with the music industry, and the forthcoming launch of the iPhone. A few months earlier, Jobs had penned a widely read open letter, “Thoughts on Music,” calling on the “big four” music companies to sell their music without digital rights management. iTunes was already the world’s largest online music distribution system, so his thoughts generated quite a bit of discussion–and a fair bit of controversy.

Today, the iPhone is nearly three years old. It has sold 50 million units worldwide, and the multitouch interface and app ecosystem it pioneered have arguably revolutionized the smartphone industry.

Today, the iPad is no longer a rumor. Launched just two months ago, it has already sold two million units and seems poised to revolutionize an industry or two of its own.

And today, Jobs is once again shaking up an industry with another open letter, “Thoughts on Flash,” a withering rumination on Adobe’s (ADBE) Flash platform and the future of online video.

Much has changed in three years. But one thing has remained constant: Apple, under Jobs, continues to drive innovation in every industry it touches.

​Police in Florida this week said 56-year-old Stephen Perry, who wrote for the 1980s cartoon series Thundercats, was murdered. The man had gone missing for nearly two weeks, and police reportedly found his arm inside of his abandoned van on the grounds of a Tampa Bay hotel May 16.

His Zephyrhills, Florida apartment had been ransacked and his two roommates were also discovered to be missing, according to the St. Petersburg Times. Those two were found last week, however, and arrested. James Davis, 45, was being held on suspicion of drug charges and failing to appear in court. Wife, Roxanne Davis, 49, was charged on suspicion of violating probation, burglary and grand theft.

Τα σπάει η Αλίκη!

Disney's 3D phenom "Alice in Wonderland" on Thursday will become the sixth movie to cross $1 billion in worldwide boxoffice and the first spring release to do so.

Tim Burton's adventure fantasy, which bows on home video on June 1, has rung up more than $332 million domestically and $667 million internationally. "Alice" bowed March 5 in most global territories and has grossed an impressive $108 million in Japan since its April 17 debut in the market.

The worldwide tally for "Alice" is Disney's second-highest to date behind "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest," which plundered $1.07 billion globally after launching in July 2006.

"It's an amazing result," Disney vp international distribution David Kornblum said. " 'Alice in Wonderland' has reinvented the culture of cinema-going in a big way."

The industry's previous five $1 billion pics -- "Avatar," "Titanic," "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," "Dead Man's Chest" and "The Dark Knight" -- unspooled during the holiday or summer boxoffice seasons.

"This was a truly unique result, given the time period, and validates that the movie business is a 52-week business," Kornblum said.

Δεν το έχω δει ακόμη το έργο αλλά μου κάνει εντύπωση πως ένα τόσο μεγάλο φαινόμενο όπως την Αλίκη δεν έχει ξεπεράσει τα 2 δισεκατομμύρια δολάρια!

Μάλλον δεν θα είναι τόσο καλό, ε;

Μπράβο στη Disney πάντως. Για πολλοστή φορά, καλά τα πήγαν ;)

Τα χώνουν οι Rage against the Machine και άλλοι, στην Arizona των USA

Rage Against the Machine lead singer Zack de la Rocha has enlisted dozens of musicians and activists to join The Sound Strike, an open call by artists to boycott the state of Arizona over its recently passed immigration law. The law passed by the Arizona state legislature, SB1070, requires local authorities to determine a person's immigration status if he or she is suspected of being undocumented.

Groups like Cypress Hill, Juanes, Conor Oberst, Los Tigres del Norte, Rage Against the Machine, Cafe Tacvba, Kanye West, Calle 13 as well as Oscar winning filmmaker and activist Michael Moore have signed on to the campaign, which was announced on thesoundstrike.net today.

"Fans of our music, our stories, our films and our words can be pulled over and harassed every day because they are brown or black, or for the way they speak, or for the music they listen to," de la Rocha wrote in an open letter announcing the campaign. "People who are poor like some of us used to be could be forced to live in a constant state of fear while just doing what they can to find work and survive. This law opens the door for them to be shaked down, or even worse, detained and deported while just trying to travel home from school, from home to work, or when they just roll out with their friends."

The website calls for additional artists to sign on to the boycott of Arizona, and asks fans to sign an online petition calling for the law's repeal.
