Pigeon-Empowered Wireless Internet

Friday, April 29th, 2005

pasta and vinegar reports (via RIM - Ami Ben-Bassat’s Blog) how Dr. Yossi Vardi, with Ami Ben-Bassat, a science writer, and Guy Vardi, “the CPO (chief pigeon/technical officer)” ran a test of Pigeon-Empowered Wireless Internet to “try and improve Wi-Fly - pigeon-empowered wireless internet and to confront this technology against ADSL”. Looks like it worked. Nice […]

Why, Madrid?

Tuesday, April 26th, 2005

“Oh dear.” That’s how the BBC News website put it, when trying to be polite about Madrid’s Olympic website.

Unfortunately, there’s no arguing with the BBC’s point of view (”Right from the start, the […]

Subversion

Tuesday, April 19th, 2005

Just a few days ago, I moved over to using Subversion for version control instead of good ‘ol CVS. Although it’s basically CVS evolved, it somehow feels different. Anyway, so far so good. I’ll report back here if there’s anything interesting to report.

Headph0ne Phet1sh is pretty impressive for the sheer quantity of content and as they say, “don’t knock it until you’ve tried it”.

Barcelona or Bust!

Friday, April 8th, 2005

I’ve just got a new flat sorted out in Barcelona, so I’M BACK! I have to say, it’s nice to be in BCN again. Big shout out and ’nuff respeck to Lio for the use of his fun bouncy sofa bed while I was looking for a flat. The new flat, which I’ll be sharing with […]

The complete lack of design on this site is growing on me. Maybe I’ll just leave it like this…

Wordpress 1.5 update

Monday, April 4th, 2005

I’ve been threatening to upgrade this blog to Wordpress 1.5 for a while, to bring it up to date with domipix and Brown Bear. Now I have, but the style is just a plain version of the theme from domipix.com. It’ll be changin’…
