This mission statement has a strong foundation in metaphysics: Synchronization is a common denominator for the forces that govern the universe and is a sign of consciousness. For example..

• Particles in stars and planets are synchronized as they spin around their own axii and along other trajectories, just as solar systems are synchronized in their motion around the center of the galaxy
• Cells in every living thing are synchronized in terms of function just as they are synchronized against day / night cycles

I consider synchronization an all-encompassing phenomenon driven by “conscious features” from large to small through spatial notions like gravity / attraction and informational notions like communication / intent.

Humans have expanded in spatial & informational terms greatly in the last centuries to the point that travel and access to information is available around the planet and even beyond, through proven technologies.

However, “temporal navigation” references used by the general public seem to remain arbitrary, ambiguous and limited in terms of device use & engineering.

In general use, i made it my purpose to help people and machines synchronize, by offering a family of free browser / HTTP-based services with lightweight protocols.

Beyond general use, there is also a need to synchronize the “synchronizers” at the software engineering level, by offering straight-forward browser-based time conversion tools and by crystallizing time engineering standards.

But more importantly, the aim is to connect time engineering knowledge with time conversion and time navigation by using a functional red line that defines a strategy, such as it is, for time-keeping in the future.

Design Principles

• “Explicit Persistence”
  The ability to use software as a service (without heavy-weight protocols such as authentication) is amazing. Avoiding server-side state (such as sessions) or client-side state (such as cookies) gives us an incredible opportunity to persist data in something which is shared between humans and processed by machines seamlessly: a URL. In addition, “persistence in the URL” is transparent to the user and allows not only full customization but high-speed customization as well.

• “Practical Moonshooting”
  A continuous succession of development / evaluation iterations for several features at once, to filter out experiments until those features that are useful remain. They are ambitious and ingenious steps, but not over-reaching, so that the next principle, that of , can be applied to link services together into a family.

• Consistency
  To think of consistency as the ability to be remembered is empowering. When you expect a button to be there and it actually is: this is a ticket to a nice ride. When it looks and feels the same across a family of services, you instantly recognize it and you know what it does. This allows you, as a user, to think ahead and use your brain-power closer to its potential.

World View

The mentioned strategy and design principles emerge from a certain world view of everything and everyone being subject to and . One of the most relevant ideas that arise from such a model, beside the cosmological and scientific implications, is the fact that we all originate from (and are subject to) the same universal phenomena and that, in the end, we are collectively responsible for the resources we share – such as the Earth. Thus we have to elevate our consciousness so that it’s capable not only of individual or local but also of collective and global perception of problems and solutions.

I really liked the movie, it kind of invites you to bring your own wine. There’s a lot of probing into modern life and relationships, and it’s up to you what you take from the film and what you feel for each of the characters. I was quite grateful for having seen Reitman’s Thank You For Smoking (2005) previously, because both movies are really arch in the way they set up people in thoroughly pariah job roles and then get you to warm to them. So it didn’t really come as a shock to see Clooney as an HR consultant (Ryan Bingham) whose job is to fire people in redundancy exercises where the management are too yeller, instead it rated an amused and knowing eyebrow raise.

Although a lot of the movie concerns the workplace, the disconnect between the interests of corporates and the interests of society (a link that was present historically in America, but which has been irrevocably decoupled), and how to work in that environment, the interest for me was more to do with relationships. From my male perspective there are some fairly poisonous insights into the female mind (though it may be unfair to generalise), the young Cornell grad Natalie Keener (played by Anna Kendrick) talks about her preconceptions of the man she will meet, the kind of name he will have, apparently the only thing he will love more than her is their “golden lab”. The slightly older perspective from Alex Goran (played by Vera Farmiga) is that the man should be taller, should earn more, and come from a good family. To go with the aeronautical theme of the movie, the theatre should have provided some sick bags.

The main theme is, for me, pure Frank Borzage, it’s about earning the right to love and be loved. In common with 80 years ago when those movies were being made, it’s an onus that only weighs upon the male of the species, which makes the film a little hackneyed.

My favourite ambiguity of the film would have to be the backpack lectures that Bingham (Clooney) gives. He has a whole metaphor about everything in your life, the people, the trinkets, all the stuff you can collect, being in a backpack and weighing you down. He says that people aren’t swans, they’re not meant to be together forever, that they’re actually sharks, who have to keep swimming continually, weighed down by nothing. I think there’s an element of truth to both poles, I can see both arguments. I just love going to a Hollywood movie and not having an opinion shoved down my throat.

I had a slight problem regarding the level of realism in the film, I felt that the air-commuter lifestyle that was being shown was over-slicked, like I was watching something of a feather with The Consequences Of Love (or Giulia Doesn’t Sleep At Night, two of the great modern hyper-stylised films from Italy). Nothing wrong with stylisation, except that I think Jason was trying to go for a film that had a lot of resonance with Recession America. I felt it was awkward to introduce real-life folks at the end, and also realistic looking termination assessments (or whatever they’re called when you can someone), when the actors such as Clooney and Vera Farmiga were just so damned suave, as if from a different universe.

And this is to Claire.
