I am reading “The Life of the Automobile”, because the last time I read something like that I was 16 and I feel I do not know enough about this topic. So I order the book and start reading. I read up to the point when Adolf Hitler orders Ferdinand Porsche to build the Beetle […]

So Sony is selling its Vaio division to some investment fund, because it’s loosing so much money and Sony wants to cut costs. Vaio is a good line of laptops, too bad it is so bad. What I would do is instate a bonus system for people working at Vaio: if you come up with […]

Got really bored and decided to reinstall my Windows7 on my HP Probook notebook. Fairly an easy operation, half an hour to install Windows, half an hour to install all other software and tweak it the way I like it. And while doing it I realized Windows is a piece of crap OS. It really […]

For a few days now Egypt has had a revolution going. People took the street to protest against the government and the president, who has been in that chair since 1981. Basically, we have the beginning of a world hunger crisis. The people would be happy to have food and would not care if the […]

So, there is this Romanian guy, Dragos Roua, who talks a lot about success and entrepreneurship and leading a better life. You know the kind, he is not an expert in any field, but he is riding the “write bullshit about being better” blog train that gullible people read and find useful. Dragos Roua used […]

Bogdan Gavrila, well known stain on Romanian internet, had a problem a few months ago. While he was the dark force behind the World Blogging Forum, none of the respected bloggers from his native country gave him and WBF any love.
