Την περασμένη εβδομάδα δύο συνεργάτες πήγαν σε μια διάσκεψη στο Ορλάντο, πιο συγκεκριμένα στην 17η διάσκεψη για ασύγχρονα δίκτυα εκμαθήσεως. Το καλό ήταν πως η δουλειά πλήρωσε ώστε εμείς στο γραφείο να έχουμε πρόσβαση τουλάχιστον

Now this was pretty funny! I kept nodding "uh-huh!!!" while watching... that damn croutch keeps getting stuck just when I want to run :-)  No jokes about metal gear and hiding in a box though...perhaps for a future skit :-)

Microsoft, steal this idea! I was listening to Windows Weekly the other day and Laporte and Thurott were discussing ARM based Windows 8 tablets, versus Intel desktops, and how Microsoft's strategy is windows everywhere (as opposed to some sort of fragmented windows like we have now, and which was much worse in the past).  What seems to be escaping people is the idea of the dock! You could have

I came across this video on YouTube (by hearing about it on Windows Weekly) and  I have to say that it is a riot! The tablets are bulky, they still use the stylus as inefficiently as they did back in 2005 (when this video was made) and...well it's so corporate!  At least the Knowledge Navigator video by Apple was a little more "real life." This video reminded me of the awesome motorola handset

OK, the title of this blog post is a little tongue in cheek :-) I was listening to TWig this morning (this week in Google) and Laporte and friends were talking about the new look of Google Reader.  As I've written previously, I don't dislike the new look; I was actually on the same boat as one of the guests of the program in that I just dislike the dramatic cut-back of sharing features.  Google

OK, this was pretty humorous.  In S37E5 of Saturday Night Live we have a skit of the Greek pantheon attempting to tackle the Greek financial crisis...pretty funny! :-)

I took opportunity of daylight savings (or whatever the heck it's called in November) to get an extra hour of game play in and finish up Alpha Protocol for the xbox360. I honestly don't remember what setting I started playing the game on (maybe easy?) but the game didn't take that long to finish (at least compared to other games). XPlay didn't give the game that great of a review, it was

Man, I have to say, what a FAIL.  Yesterday morning, when I came into work I still had the "old" Google Reader interface because I had left the computer on sleep all night so when I came in I was back to where I left it.  Read a few items...shared a few others and then I refreshed...bad idea!  I got the new interface! So, I have to say, the new interface isn't bad. It's the same as

Το περασμένο σαββατοκύριακο είχα πάει επίσκεψη στον πατέρα και πήρα μαζί και το iPad2 ως συνήθως. Το έδειξα στον πατέρα μου και φάνηκε εντυπωσιασμένος (αλλά δεν είπε τίποτα) και με ρώτησε πόσο το πήρα - του είπα $500, και με ρώτησε

A Greek song (original in music video form bellow) sung IN GREEK by a Japanese band. Now that's what I call Freakin' Awesome! I wonder if the band is learning (or speaks) Greek, or if it was all transliterated to katakana
