	Last month, during my EuroIA week end in Copenaghen, I ran into <a href="http://www.100places.com/en/">100 places to remember before they disappear</a>.<br />
	The idea: the world is beautiful but climate change is going to erase 100 wonderful places.</p>
<p>
	The comunication isn&#39;t using fear but is lead by aesthetics: climate change will destroy beauty.</p>
<p>
	I love this approach. It works. The photos are stunning.<br />
	I saw a lot of people moving towards the exibition attracted by the pictures, without any idea in matter of climate change: a smart way to involve new people on this cause!</p>
<p>
	You can also use the <a href="http://www.100places.com/en/the100places0/" target="_blank">map of the 100 places</a> to see what are we going to lose.</p>
<p>
	The 100 places is a multimedia communication project (made by Co+Life) that includes exhibitions, books, posters, postcards, television slots of the 100 stories, a good website for a planned user experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>London is looking for an <strong>identity strategy</strong> (<a target="_blank" href="http://abrandforlondon.wordpress.com/the-brief/">brief</a>).<br />
The brand of the city is <a title="London identity crisis" target="_blank" href="http://abrandforlondon.wordpress.com/about/">confused</a> and needs to be <span onclick="dr4sdgryt(event)">synthesized</span>.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://abrandforlondon.wordpress.com"><img width="550" height="403" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-245" title="London brand identity crisis" alt="London brand identity crisis" src="http://www.rainwiz.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/identity_crisis.png" /></a></p>
<p>Territorial branding is a dangerous field.<br />
Corporations have identities based on marketing factors: products, target, price, etc.<br />
Places have a different mission: they have to represent everyone!</p>
<p>Despite the bad habits that are consolidated in my Country (see <a href="http://sdz.aiap.it/notizie/11283">Magic italy</a> and some other national shame), <a href="http://www.movingbrands.com">Moving Brands</a> have decided to open a debate on the Web. Anyone can contribute simply interacting with <a href="http://twitter.com/we_are_london" target="_blank">@we_are_london</a> on Twitter.</p>
<p><strong>S</strong>imple. <strong>S</strong>hared. <strong>S</strong>ocial.<br />
Maybe <strong>S</strong>urprising, for <strong>S</strong>illy over-aged governors that are <strong>S</strong>hoving Italy into decline.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This morning I saw the <a target="_blank" href="http://wave.google.com/">video preview of Google Wave</a>.</p>
<p><img width="256" height="256" style="border: medium none ;" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-157" title="Google Wave Logo" alt="Google Wave Logo" src="http://www.rainwiz.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/google_wave_logo-760260.png" /></p>
<p>As they say, a product, a platform, a protocol (three P).</p>
<p>It&#8217;s really impressive. It seems that the GooGuys have combined the intuition of wiki (collaboration), messaging (instant and delayed), social networking, tagging into an open source project (the 4th P).<br />
The first sensation is: WOW. Is that possible?<br />
The second one is: what about the experience of being overwhelmed by too much information?</p>
<p>After &quot;the cloud&quot;, a new metaphor is served! The wave is an engaging concept: let&#8217;s surf it!<br />
But old sailors know that waves are dangerous. In fact it&#8217;s really hard to imagine the interaction with a web application that is spread everywhere (API &amp; Extensions).</p>
<p>Will Google give consistency and paths to waves? Will Google allow us to pass over and surf them?<br />
As WebSailors, we&#8217;ll see. By the way, I&#8217;ve a lot of thoughts to share after this viewing:</p>
<ul>
<li>Connectivity is the power and the browser is the new operating system.</li>
<li>There isn&#8217;t any message, just conversations (so cluterian!).</li>
<li>Blogspace is affected by broadcast paradigma: post and comments.</li>
<li>There isn&#8217;t any difference between message and feedback. Both are old words.</li>
<li>Playback culture will defeat log culture.</li>
</ul>
<p>P.S.</p>
<p>Come on folks, stop clapping at every feature&#8230; It&#8217;s sit-com style! Evertything seems unreal.</p>
