3 Skypephones
Now, this is fun. We have five awesome 3 Skypephones to give away to randomly selected Lost At E Minor subscribers. These stylish mobile phones call, text and take pictures, but also enables you to do Instant Message and make calls through Skype too. For free. The 3G 3 Skypephone has a 2-megapixel camera, mp3 player, mobile TV and internet. The giveaway is open to residents of the United Kingdom, Australia, Italy, Hong Kong, Sweden, Denmark, Austria, and Republic of Ireland.
To be in with a chance of winning a 3 Skypephone, be a Lost At E Minor subscriber, and leave a message under this post saying: ‘Ah, yeah. I will take that, thank you very much’. Entries close Monday morning New York time and the winners will be announced shortly thereafter.
Oh, and to celebrate the power of the phone, Aussie girl Rebecca Campbell has been given the best job going. The Skype Nomad challenge has seen Campbell embark on a 33 day round-the-world trip across 15 countries including China, Australia, America, Italy and Estonia to product test and demonstrate how Skype can be used wherever you are.
She is constantly blogging, video blogging, facebooking, podcasting, twittering and using Skype to keep people up to date with her travels live, using a variety of Skype enabled gadgets from 3 Skypephone to the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet to keep in contact.
Yup, it’s a tough life …

Is Google becoming our collective brain?
By some estimates, Google has over half a million servers that each month crunch the equivalent of all the data in the entire library of congress 240 times over. Well over half of web users go to Google for answers to their questions, asking the machine over 400 million queries per day. Slowly but surely, Google is becoming our collective brain. Consider this: Google can now predict flu outbreaks weeks in advance simply by monitoring searches for flu terms (’sore throat’), and aggregating this based on location. They’ve launched this service as Google Flu Trends. ‘From a technological perspective, it is the beginning’, says Eric E. Schmidt, Google’s chief executive. So where is this is all heading? Read more

HAVE YOUR SAY
We asked New York-based photographer Baldomero Fernandez about his Cuba series and whether there was a particular mood that he was looking to capture: ‘Usually I tend to photograph quiet scenes that are empty and have a feeling of solitude. The surreal part that comes through is usually more because of anachronisms, or maybe something is just out of place. It’s not straightforward surrealism. Reality usually tends to be far stranger than fiction’. There’s an exclusive interview with Baldomero Fernandez on the Feature Shoot website.
