i somehow missed this. it is always amazing to me how many people in switzerland still cling to obsolete email providers like gmx or whatever their ISP gives them.

Very Moloko. Me like.
Japan GDP
The second image shows Japanese GDP plotted from 1980 to 2006. It shows our once 18% GDP down to a a modest 9.1% in 2006. Furthermore, the text on the right explains that we’ve gone from the world’s highest GDP per capita to the world’s 18th. It’s really no wonder we’re having a hard time getting attention in Japan. With an aging population and a less-than-competitive economy, there are ways to manage, but you don’t get there by denying the facts and continuing to beat you chest IMHO.
why japan is screwed. the same thing will happen to switzerland as well
No Swiss DMCA
A dangerous law has been passed on the 5th October by both the Parliment and the National Council almost without resistance. The revision represents massive advances for legal protection of copy protection mechanisms. It is my conviction that such technical copy protection measures are of no merit for the consumer and will ultimately also harm the content producers. A law that puts such measures under special protection is hence just as ill advised.
i am really curious if my swiss friends will pull this off.

Swiss Craft Brewing
In der Schweiz spriessen Kleinbrauereien wie Pilze aus dem Boden. Da ist es gar nicht so einfach, die Spreu vom Weizen zu trennen. 20 Minuten stellt 5 Perlen der hiesigen Braukunst vor.
there is still hope for the first decent swiss-made beer
ATLAS experiment at CERN
Swiss Cheese making
Switzerland is an ideal study tour locale for learning about cheese making and aging. In many of the small villages, there are still family operations of 2 or 3 people that make very high quality specialty cheeses.
mmmm
