I found a new blog with some inspiring content: Odopod. I got in touch with it via Twitter when Koen send me a link to the application above (click the picture) called Twittersketch.
This application searches for the words “up”, “down”, “left and “right” or for a color in the latets tweets from the public timeline. This way a kind of painting appears on the screen. This is a huge inspiration for my project Twitter Traces.
More cool apps from Odopod:
Generative Compositional Engine
Audio Spectrum Analyzer

I think youtube can be more successful as it is at this moment without any huge change of the website.
I came to this idea today when I was looking for a vidoe I watched previous week, but couldn’t remeber how it was called. And after half an hour of searching and clicking links that lead to other links to click I finally found it. I also have this problem regarding music. I’ve listened to a new song and a week after it is stuck in my head and I want to know what song it was. WHat do I do? I go to last.fm and look it up in my played tracks.
So I was thinking: Why doesn’t Youtube have this function? A common though among last.fm users is that they “waste” songs when listening to them while they’re not scrobbled, would this also work for video’s? I think so, I would like to tell my friends I watched a video and do it al the time by linking them on Facebook.
My advice to Google: Go and have a peek and learn from last.fm!

Something I would really like the world to be is interactive.. Everything should be interactive. Poals you pass by should bend, tiles should light up, I should be able to influence the colors of the KVK building at the campus..
