Some years ago Web 2.0 was coined as a term for the new Internet. By definition it is not a technological improvement, it was a metaphor for the phenomenom of the web becoming social. Now some of the experiments around the new Web 3.0 are starting to get pretty impressive. Where the Web 2.0 described the Internet as social, the Web 3.0 describes it as semantic. Firstly it needs to be said that Web 3.0 has nothing to do with…
When I was in the army there was one band which I was introduced to, five years later I can still find them in my playlists and I still get suprised over how good they actually are. Now, with their new album Trespassers in their luggage they hosted John Dee, Oslo and did a very good consert. Our expectations are high said Kasper Eistrup, vocal and lead guitar. He wanted the audience to dance and sing along with the music,…

During the last three weeks since the iPad was released, the Technology Press has been flooded by articles about the iPad, Apples newest gadget. The media has been asking questions like, What is iPad going to change? Will it replace the need for a printing press? Which former technology does it compete against? Which applications will be developed? and What will we be able to do with the iPad? It is clear that there are a lot of speculations about…
Berlin – today it is the capital of the Bundesrepublik Deutschland, but it has not always been this way. During the last century, Berlin has been the capital of many countries. This is just one thing which makes the city so exciting. In the beginning of the 20th century, Berlin was the capital of the growing Keiserreich, or Empire, of Wilhelm II. After it’s defeat in the First World War, it became the arena of political conflicts in the Weimar…

Har du hentet ned noe musikk fra nettet i det siste, bare for å sjekke om musikken er verdt å kjøpe? Eller har du lastet ned en film, fordi det var for langt å gå til nærmeste videobutikk? Kjenner du deg igjen? Sjansen for at du da har forbrutt deg mot åndsverksloven er da stor. Åndsverksloven vi i dag benytter oss av i Norge ble lagt til lovverket i 1961, men lover som slår fast de immaterielle rettigheten en person…
Denne teksten er skrevet i forbindelse med kurset SKRIV1101 ved Universitetet i Oslo. Jeg vil i denne artikkelen se nærmere på talerenes troverdighet og viktigheten av denne i samfunnsdebatten. Er det slik at troverdighet kan skapes? Og har troverdigheten noe å si for vår evne til å få frem vårt budskap, og for å gjøre dette overbevisende? Akkurat dette spørsmålet opptok stor plass i mediene da medierådgiver og samfunnsdebattant Kjell Terje Ringdal ga ut boka «kunsten å overbevise». I kjølvannet…
Denne oppgaven er skrevet som en anmeldelse av Kråkerøytalen i forbindelse med kurset SKRIV1101 på Universitetet i Oslo. Jeg skal her anmelde talen friheten og demokratiet i fare som ble holdt i et forsamlingslokale på Kråkerøy utenfor Fredrikstad 29. februar 1948, og siden talen ble holdt her blir den ofte referert til som Kråkerøytalen. Da denne talen ble holdt lå det forventninger til datidens statsminister Einar Gerhardsen om at han skulle kommentere den kommunistiske maktovertagelsen i Tsjekkoslovakia som hadde funnet…
