Today Google announced a brand new product, protocol and platform. It is a very wide concept that will change the Internet as we know it, so lets me explain what it is and why is it important?
They started by thinking: mail is old, there are copies of the mail everywhere so it’s impossible to edit [...]

I had never been in an Ignite event, but I had heard of the rules and really wanted to live one!

The first presentation started very funny… It was a guy trying to give us tips on how to get up [...]

State of the O3D

In: technology

28 May 2009

I assisted a great session today about O3D at the Google I/O.

Ok this is probably the most shocking, useful and controversial talk in the Google I/O this year. We had two of the creators of SVN (very cool guys) telling us (in a very FULL room) that there are no genius and that honestly if we have so much diversity and anonymity in Internet: everyone is [...]

This year could not be an exception and here is what happened.
First we started by buying the next [...]

Having enough control and perspective of a situation will enable you to ponder the next move; but in most situations that’s just not possible. No wonder, therefore,  there’s such a huge need for leaders and visionaries in this world. But you don’t need to be a genius, tycoon or high mandatoryto ask one simple question: [...]

This is probably one of the best lessons a geek can teach other people and one of the easiest to apply, too! The concept is very clear: if something is meant to do just one thing, make sure it does that and nothing more.
This can apply to all sorts of situations but the most important [...]
