In the form of traditional Club Admiralty, where I had a change log page for my site (man, those were the days), here's a change log resulting from the getting rid of the digital tumbleweed :-) So gone are the references to jaiku, to mySpace and to Plaxo from the jumper page. Adieu old networks :-) From the Articles page I got rid of the Google Reader widget of shared items and I created a page

OK, so this past week I took the opportunity to take care of some digital tumbleweed - online social services that I signed up for in order to try and I've just not used in a while. While  going through these services I also discovered that some of them had gone belly up (or were closing shortly!)  So first of all, a very quick adieu  to Radar (the picture sharing service, ember (a service

There are  some people that I have been following on Twitter that I have now started following on Google+ because they are quite interesting and quite a few times they give you some food for thought. Two of these people are Panagiotis and Nikos (both post in English and Greek).  The origin of this post comes from a question that Panagiotis (@vrypan) had about the utility

Τις προάλλες έτυχε να πετύχω μια δημοσίευση του Παναγιώτη Βρυώνη (γνωστός στο διαδίκτυο ως @vrypan) στο Google+. Είναι μερικά άτομα στο ίντερνετ τα οποία ακολουθώ στο twitter και σε παρόμοιες υπηρεσίες γιατί αρκετές φορές δημοσιεύουν

Nice!  I just found this trailer for a new PSP Assassin's Creed and Ezio's last Chapter (Haven't played bloodlines yet, but there is still time, despite the crappy reviews it got). The game? Assassin's Creed: Ember ... looking forward to it!

Apprentice Rank Insignia This weekend has been a video game bonanza (and lots of video game relate frustration, but I guess this is what they term "good stress").  This past weekend I started off with Halo 3, in which I continued the same mission I've been on for the past 2 weeks...the damned mission to "find cortana." I have to say that this level has been the most frustrating Halo level ever

PhD comics is coming out with a movie version! I have to say that I really like the comic strip but I don't really know how well it will translate into a movie.  The Garfield movie seemed ridiculous (disclaimer: I have not seen it but I may if it's on Netflix) and no one has made a Calvin and Hobbes movie yet ;-)  I fear that what seems like witty in a five panel comic strip will look pretty

Το περασμένο σαββατοκύριακο, απ’ ότι είδατε στο χτεσινό μου μπλόγκ ποστ, έκατσα και τελείωσα το βιβλίο starship troopers. Ήταν περίπου 60 σελίδες, οπότε με ένα κρύο φραππεδάκι στην βεράντα και μερικές ωρίτσες στον ήλιο το βιβλίο
