How Wikileaks has woken up journalism. →
“News organisations are uneasy with either the philosophy or the required skills of performing the same function as Wikileaks. It would be fascinating to know, if handed the cables on a thumb drive from an original source, how many news organisations would have handed them back, or published far more selectively”

Found these online (29.11.2010)
So, this post came up a bit late mostly because I spent all week watching the crew from LoadingReadyRun playing Desert Bus and raise money for Child’s Play. It was nothing short from amazing, but that meant that I couldn’t really focus on other things. But, this is what I found entertaining and worth reading this week:

Found these online (21.11.2010)
Hey! So this is the first post in a series that I wanted to start from back in the summer, but due to my laziness it got pushed back to now. So, every week I will post a link roundup of the most important articles I came across this week. Now, check these articles out and if you like the selection, check back next week and see what interesting things I found that week.

Look at all the colours
As you can see Not So Well Written changed it’s layout from the bleaky all grey to this new thing that has colours in it too. I changed things because I really wanted to play with Tumblr’s theming engine and also I wanted something easier to read, skim and use.
But why go down this path? Why change everything and present so wildly different approaches for each type of post? OK, maybe I’m...

Why So Mobile?
Although Not So Well Exposed is only visited by a handful of mobile users, I really feel that a mobile version of the website is a must have in this day and age. Why bother? Because some say that more users will browse the Web from a mobile device than from a fixed terminal in the following years. So, switching to Wordpress made it pretty easy to set up a mobile version, in theory at least.

Who’s afraid of the scroll-bar?
As I mentioned earlier the subtle changes in the design of Not So Well Exposed were made to boost efficiency. Basically, I wanted to cut back in all the clicking and dragging and give users everything upfront. Less clicks = better for the users. Comments are right under the photos, not hidden like they used to be, social sharing is next to the permalink and the Series disappeared, now all images...

CMS Migration
Well, a couple of weeks ago I switched the platform that ran Not So Well Exposed from Pixelpost to Wordpress. At first I started playing with Wordpress just to get the hang of it’s theme system, but ended up cleaning the UI of the site and switching all together. One of the main reasons for the switch was the announcement that development for Pixelpost 2 was halted indefinitely and Wordpress has...

Meet Not So Well Designed
A while ago I started rethinking my relationship with design and where down the line we got separated… I couldn’t really remember so I let my not-so-new passion photography wait on the side while I give design another chance. And, things changed. I found a lot more fun in design than in photography so I started work on a super secret, secret project: Not So Well Designed. My new...

Faceți cunoștință cu Not So Well Designed
Acum ceva timp am început să îmi regândesc relația cu design-ul, pentru a vedea când și de ce anume ne-am separat. Nu prea mi-am adus aminte, așa că am făcut o pauză cu fotografia ca să îi mai dau design-ului o șansă. Și, lucrurile s-au schimbat. Am descoperit un design mult mai distractiv decât cel pe care l-am lăsat, așa că am început lucrul la un proiect ultra-secret: Not So Well Designed. De...

Let's see what happens
Pentru varianta în română click aici: Despre viitor, din nou.
Ok, so, I guess it’s time to stop the teasing and, well, step into “the future”. From tomorrow things will change. Yeah, I take myself too seriously. But, the thing is that I came up with a pretty neat plan on posting frequency and subjects, so, I’m good to go. Firts off I’ll be posting new things on Not So Well...

Cred că a venit timpul să reîncep să postez chestii pe aici. Cum am zis nu demult lucrurile se vor schimba pe aici și veți putea vedea schimbările începând de luni.

Pentru varianta în română click aici: Viitorul familiei „Not So Well”
Well, in the past months I really left Not So Well Exposed and Not So Well Written just fade away, because I was really busy with finishing school and stuff like that. Actually, i haven’t really update Not So Well Written because I didn’t really knew what I wanted to do with this page. I always thought I would be a...

Viitorul familiei „Not So Well”
For the English version click here: The future of the “Not So Well” Family
În ultimele luni nu m-am mai ocupat de Not So Well Exposed și de Not So Well Written pentru că am fost ocupat cu terminarea facultății și alte chestii similare. De fapt, nu prea am actualizat Not So Well Written pentru că nu prea știam ce vroiam să fac cu această pagină. Întotdeauna am crezut că va fi un loc în care să pun...

FIRST!: Become the first guy on a list that doesn’t really matter in real life and then brag about it
În ultima vreme I’m achievement whoring… În toate jocurile în care pot și mai nou și cu Not So Well Exposed. Mie nu îmi trebuie mult ca sa fiu happy și faptul că I’m FIRST în România, conform Cool PhotoBlogs, made my day.
Acum tot ce trebuie să fac e să am grijă să...
