OK, I had a "fun" with the Karmic Koala including wireless and graphical drivers, I'm finally on a lead that "might" work for my PPPoE connection, an then I ask myself: What could go worse?
Well, it seems that my new Koala friend is always there with an answer:
Don't worry, it's just my back-up drive! ;)
După o serie de telefoane și discuții cu serviciul de spuport clienți ai RCS&RDS, am într-un final activat serviciul de Internet mobil - Digi Net Mobil!
Ca receptor, am primit un HUAWEI E156G HDSPA USB Stick, ce limitează automat viteza maximă de la 7.2 Mbps la 3.6 Mbps (respectiv 384 Kbps în protocol WCDMA). Normal, aceste viteze variază enorm, în funcție de puterea semnalului.
Spre exemplu, într-un apartament din Iași, cu ziduri ceva mai groase, viteza poate avea valorile următoare:
Azi, 09/11/2009, se împlinesc 20 de ani de la căderea zidului Berlinului.
Cu această ocazie, Centrul Cultural German Iași organizează în această seară un Filmabend, începând cu ora 20:30, la Casa de Cultură "Mihai Ursachi" din Parcul Copou. Filmul ales pentru a ne introduce în atmosfera acelor timpuri este Good bye Lenin! (nominalizat pentru Globul de Aur, plus alte 31 de premii și 14 nominalizări).
Deși l-am vizionat cu plăcere și cu ocazia Festivalului Internațional de Film de la Iași, mă veți regăsi printre spectatori!
Vizionare plăcută!
3. Two years ago I joined shelfari.com, and I liked the idea! It was my first contact with a a social cataloging web application for storing and sharing personal library catalogs and book lists.
2. One year ago (while reading about Pro Django) I found out about an interesting web application that again allowed users to add a dash of social to their book lists, but from what I was able to see, it was way smarter! But it had invitation-only subscriptions. :(
1. Today I read the Reading List apprenticeship pattern, so I remembered the applications mentioned before... could I use those as tools fitted for this job?
So, given this scenario, today I joined readernaut.com. It's the application I mentioned at step 2 and it's still in beta. The main reason for choosing it is the time dimension: I can easily look back on my activity and know when did I start reading a specific book, how much do I still have to read etc.
Another feature that I appreciate most is that I can add notes to a book; this makes it easy to record the ideas I find inspiring.
Readernaut is a social network for book lovers. Although you may find several other sites that tried to merge the books and reading aspects around the social networking features, the completeness of Readernaut's offerings are likely the most important thing that make its users to get excited about it.
Even if I found quite a few smart and helpful features, I wasn't able to find the completeness (at least not yet). Maybe one day I will write an article on my vision of Readernaut's future development...
But until then, I'm asking you: What social-network-for-book-lovers do you use?
My scenario:
I landed on scoaladeeficienta.ro, filled in the subscription form with my:
and I got my instance:
My problem:
My conclusion: Why make your user think instead of making him be more efficient?
I also write about Ruby, Rails, Big Data and more.
I would love to change the world, but they won't give me I'm still looking for the source code!
Welcome to my personal blog;
here I usually write about my (computer scientist) life and things that I (will) do.
