Εδώ και κάτι χρόνια τρέχω να βγάλω την Ελληνική υπηκοότητα, κάτι που νόμιζα πως είχα ήδη αφού τελείωσα γυμνάσιο στην Ελλάδα και οι γονείς μου ήταν Έλληνες, αλλά τέλος πάντων (οι παλιές καλές μέρες του «είμαι φοβερός και το

I can't wait for the Hollowmen to come back! Yes, I know it's an Australian show, but politics is absurd no matter what the country ;-)

I've got Chomsky in the brain...along with a lot of other linguistics stuff. These past few weeks I've been reading a lot about tech and non-tech issues that I have random thoughts on, but by the time I get to writing about them I could care less ;-) I think for the rest of the semester you'll probably see a lot of linguistics related posts as I continue to work on my classics research paper, psycholinguistics

What a crazy week! One month down...three more to go in this ultimate semester! I've kept off blogging mostly and consuming the content that I left on my Instapaper account instead so that it doesn't go stale.

I was listening to Leo Laporte on Twit the other day and he and Robert Scoble were talking about how great Twitter is (all hacking of the twitter homepage aside) when trying to find some information.

I highly recommend that

Ψςςςς! Πριν κάτι εβδομάδες είχα πάει στο σπίτι του πατέρα μου. Η αποστολή ήταν αποστολή καθαρισμού! Πήγα να καθαρίσω το παλιό μου δωμάτιο έτσι ώστε ο πατέρας μου να μπορεί να πετάξει το παλιό γραφείο και τις βιβλιοθήκες για

Well, I got this in my inbox the other day: Vox has been a fun place to explore, create and connect with your friends.
