Happy 20th birthday! - Two decades since the fall of the Berlin Wall

In 1959, just fifty years ago, I was in Berlin with the British Army. The infamous wall had not yet been built round the whole city, which was divided into four sectors, Russian, American, French and British.

Berlin Wall Series: Bulgaria

By contrast to Czechoslovakia, it would be fair to say Bulgaria is for many a “far off country of which we know little”. Today it is a member of NATO and the EU, which would have been almost impossible to conceive 20 years ago. However, Bulgaria’s importance is underestimated, being one of those countries on the “frontline” of the Iron Curtain bordering Greece and therefore...

On fertility, Colombia, climate change, food, the Berlin Wall, zombies, enterprise

SIR – Although much of the developing world now benefits from declining fertility (“Go forth and multiply a lot less”, October 31st), the demographic prospects for sub-Saharan Africa are grim. Its average fertility is more than double that of Asia and Latin America and its population is expected to grow by one billion over the next half century. Pervasive poverty causes parents to...

Letter: Reagan helped bring down Berlin Wall

Mikhail Gorbachev got credit, and even President John F. Kennedy got a mention, but nothing for former President Reagan. How soon we forget! Let’s not allow the revisionists to reverse true history.

Twitter Makes Geotagging Tweets Possible

Back in the summer, Twitter announced that it was working on an API to give developers the ability to geotag tweets. The company has now made that available. There is no geotagging on Twitter.com yet, but Twitter apps will now be able to support it. So potentially, you will be able to geotag tweets and show the location from where you tweeted. "The added information provides valuable context...

Obama did better than just okay in China

If the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the end of communism in eastern Europe ushered in an era of unparalleled US dominance, Mr Obama’s first visit to China 20 years later arguably marks another once-in-a-generation revolution in...

Good Communists

In this period marking the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall -filled with such grief, silence and commemoration- it's worth re-visiting other, more personal storylines of communist utopia.

Twitter API Gets Geotagging; Web Geotagging Coming Soon?

Earlier this spring, Twitter announced it would soon be adding location-based information to tweets . Typical of what we like to think of as the company's "mysterious charm," the feature has been unveiled six months later with a brief post on the Twitter blog. The new geotagging capabilities can already be seen in certain third-party apps and might even come to the web interface sometime...

Twitter finally enables geotagged tweets with new location API

Twitter finally rolled out its new application programming interface for tagging tweets with your location. It won’t appear on Twitter.com, but it will be enabled for location-based services like Birdfeed, Seesmic Web, Foursquare, Gowalla, Twidroid and Twittelator Pro. Tweetie already switched on some geotagging functionality earlier this year, so you can see nearby tweets. This is probably...

Think Globally, Tweet Locally

This release is unique in that it's API-only which means you won't see any changes on twitter.com , yet. Instead, Twitter applications like Birdfeed , Seesmic Web , Foursquare , Gowalla , Twidroid , Twittelator Pro and others are...

Reconciliation

I went to the Wall Memorial at Bernauer Str. last weekend. The memorial is very visible, takes up a lot of land, and enables you to really see and feel what went on from 1961-89. One of the central points of the Memorial is the Chapel of Reconciliation (http://www.kirche-versoehnung.de/). This church was left in no-man's-land while the Berlin Wall was up, and was blown up by the DDR in 1985. It is...
