Ever since I started writing this blog, I wanted to use a software that was easy to use and allowed me to focus on the important stuff, namely writing the posts, but also putting code snippets, images, etc. For more than 5 years I kept using Pebble, which is a Java-based blog web app, and […]
The second day of Google I/O was filled with session. There are different tracks that you can choose which include topics like Android, Google Glass, Google+, GAE, Google Maps, Youtube, etc. Some sessions were more popular than others, of course. For example, there was one Google Glass session “Developing For Glass” that was completely full, […]
Wednesday was the first day of the Google I/O 2013 conference. The doors opened at 7 am to let close to five thousand individuals into the breakfast area and into the line that eventually led to where the keynote was to take place. The organization went pretty well, with most people forming a single line, […]
It was the day before the conference. There wasn’t much to do except register, get your NFC enabled badge and maybe do some early shopping at the Google store. Registration opened at 2 pm sharp, and even though there was a big line the process went smoothly. You just had to scan your registration QR […]
Wow. It’s been over 2 years since my last post. How did I let that happen? Well, for once, I’ve been thinking about moving the blog from Pebble to WordPress (I like pebble, but there is more support and tools on wordpress), but I haven’t had the time (or the inclination) to actually do it. I […]

It’s really been a long time since I’ve updated this site. I could make up excuses like too much work, too little time, or simply that I didn’t think there was anything worth to say. Some of it may be true, but the important thing here is that what I wanted to do with this […]
I was looking at the new Windows Live Messenger application that Microsoft released to replace the MSN Messenger. One of the things that I found really odd is that on of the terms on the EULA (End User License Agreement) states: 2. HOW WE MAY MODIFY THIS CONTRACT. We may change this contract at any […]
An ancient bronze artifact scooped out of a shipwreck in 1900 by sponge divers and kept at the Athens National Archaeological Museum has been analyzed by a team of Greek and British scientists and has been established that it is the world’s oldest Astronomy computer. With over 30 bronze wheels and more than a thousand […]
Being a parent isn’t always easy, because kids still don’t quite get what’s really wrong or what is just a simple prank. I have a 3 and a half year old son, and boy, does he make me go mad sometimes… But there are sometimes when you can’t do anything but laugh at the imagination […]
