A blog about life in general, in as many languages as I can manage. Ενα ιστολόγιο περι ζωής, πολυγλωσσο - σε όσες γλωσσες εχω μεράκι να γράψω.

Χριστός Ανέστη!

Χρόνια πολλά σε όλους!Η αλήθεια είναι πως φέτος, όσο και πέρισι, το Πάσχα ήρθε και δεν το πήρα χαμπάρι. Αμά δεν ήταν η μπλογκόσφαιρα, η twitterορσφαιρα και το facebook μάλλον θα ερχόταν καλοκαίρι και θ' αναρωτιόμουν που πήγε το Πάσχα.Η

Google Transcription & Translation

OK, so yesterday I wrote about the funny Greek captions on the iPad intro video on YouTube. I started transcribing the Greek, but two minutes in I got tired (too much work). The original video can be found on youtube (see previous post) and Engadget's English caption screenshots can be found here (click)Anyway - here is the Greek:Είναι αλήθεια επωφελέις για όλους κάτι

The iPad video, as captioned by Google - in GREEK

I came across this story from Engadget. If you head over to YouTube you can access some beta features such as automatic captioning of videos and automatic translation of said videos. Now, I had never viewed the iPad intro video, so this was all new to me. I clicked on the Closed Captioning to enable it and the English was somewhat amusing. The fun really kicked in when I clicked on Greek translation.

Colbert on the Greek Economy

I saw this the other night when I got home after having seen it on Twitter (via @asteris).Honestly the situation seems like a major clusterfuck. It seems like a classic north south divide and the unfortunate (or just callous use of the PIGS acronym) is making things worse. -- Post From My iPhone

Κατσίκες, γιαγιάδες και μπίζνες

Ο titanas στο pestaola.gr λεει πως ίσως αυτή η διαφήμιση να είναι η χειρότερη διαφήμιση της cosmote. Εντάξει, μπορεί να έχει δίκιο, δεν τις έχω δεί όλες τις διαφημίσεις της cosmote γιατί δεν μένω Ελλάδα. Εγώ πάλι όμως γέλασα με αυτή την διαφήμιση

Windows Phone Series 7 - Finally!

Finally a Windows Phone that I am jazzed about!After many years of Microsoft holding onto backward compatibility, they've decided to pull a MacOS and move forward! This is something they needed to do for a while because, as I've said before, the older code base was holding them back! Now they can finally move forth without the ball-and-chain of backward compatibility, innovate AND finally integrate
