Contenidos Locales [es] covers the recent publication by Jacqueline Gonzalez from the Chilean city of Valparaíso, who writes about the trolley bus that has been running since the 1950s.
Sérgio Amadeu [pt] has just learned that the Brazilian National Standards Organization is considering to have Digital TV setup boxes with DRM (Digital Rights Managements). “It is unfortunate that such an issue is decided by a small group of technicians. This decision is not purely technical, it has extremely serious and extensive socio-cultural impact. Society should be heard. This is a topic of digital citizenship, the right of fair use and to save images the way people want.”
Wanderley Filho [pt] compares, ironically, Brazilian politicians achievements to life on Second Life: a parallel world. “The election air time on TV is a balm to comfort those citizens who imagined that their past elected governments had not done any work for the past 4 years. In a few minutes the mistake is clarified and with surprise we find out that we had misunderstood and things are happening at a hallucinating pace (…) with a little help from computer graphics, it's possible to create a parallel administration”.

Hi! Great picture — thanks for offering it under CC so that it was easy to reuse on my own web site.
There is some confusion, however: your attribution policy says all the work here is CC attribution, but your Flick page of the same picture adds the non-commercial and share-alike clauses. I like the share-alike clause, but if non-commercial applied I don’t think I could use it on my web page which has advertising on it!
