Twitter is currently tackling some problems with profile images. As of now, people are having trouble with adding new images (they don't upload) or removing images (they don't delete.) Others have seen a sudden shift from their current image to an old image used before.

Depuis deux mois, Twitter a du mal avec l'upload d'images. Une centaine de personnes ayant rencontré le bug se sont manifestées dans les commentaires. Visiblement, c'est difficile à corriger l'upload de fichier en Ruby on Rails.

I did notice however several mentions of the "HTML5 standard" that led me to write this post to remind the community of the current status of the specification, both in practice and on the standards track.. HTML5 isn't a W3C standard. We certainly look forward to the day when it is, but it isn't yet. In fact, the specification, co-authored by Ian Hickson from Google, is still very much a work in progress.

Rappelons que HTML5 est le format "sérialisé à la SGML" du document, pour le standard on devrait écrire HTML 5 (mais Google a plus de mal à le trouver dans ce cas). Et Hickson nous rappelle dans les commentaires comment il peut être pragmatique (cf. hier).

Current collaborative mapping projects using locative media technologies have often overlooked the conventions of the base map as a site for reinvention.

The Photos application is one of Facebook’s most popular features. Up to date, users have uploaded over 15 billion photos which makes Facebook the biggest photo sharing website. For each uploaded photo, Facebook generates and stores four images of different sizes, which translates to a total of 60 billion images and 1.5PB of storage. The current growth rate is 220 million new photos per week, which translates to 25TB of additional storage consumed weekly. At the peak there are 550,000 images served per second. These numbers pose a significant challenge for the Facebook photo storage infrastructure.

The basic idea is to replace the current Concept Series forum with a tool which allows users to post ideas/mockups/prototypes; discuss, rate & collaborate on them and move them forward through the process. Further the tool aggregates content from the wider web to allow users to host their concepts on their own blogs and sites such as flickr.
