Here is a program for your mobile phone (with camera) to decrypt the secret message …
Firefox 3.5.4 fades the colors of flickr.com pictures
November 1, 2009I never liked the new Firefox 3.0
1) It crashes more frequently than the last 2.xx (which NEVER crashed)
2) It’s damn’ slow on my eeePC
3) My pictures loaded on flickr.com look almost completely DESATURATED with the new Firefox – not with Explorer, not with the old Firefox
Do I have to switch to Explorer? My flickr.com pictures look like if I left them on a sunny week in my car – only when I browse them with the new Firefox …
Any help?
My Nokia 6700 classic review
October 28, 2009After 1 month I used it both in Europe and USA, I can say:
- Call quality and voice quality is ALWAYS excellent
- Where many other mobile phones do not find the network, my Nokia 6700 ALWAYS does
- When I have now a plastic mobile phone in my hand, I really appreciate the metal shell of mine
- The GPS is quite slow to find satellites from time to time, but it brought me where I needed with the free maps you can download online
- The 5MP camera is ok, but i prefer my Canon EOS 450D ![]()
- I am positively surprised by the MP3 audio quality, but probably because my last phone was very old
- There are for sure longer lasting batteries than this one, but this one is still ok: I’ve to recharge approx. every 3 days.
- Very useful the possibility to recharge the phone via USB
- The keypad is not the best; it is true that the last line is quite small: this is the most annoying feature of this mobile phone. Nevertheless, you CAN write SMS with one hand only.
So, if you need a reliable and solid phone for excellent quality voice calls, this is it!
The age of stupid: somebody should start jumping off the cliff
October 20, 2009Stupid seem to be a fair amount of our population: even a movie was made on them. I can trust this movie as I also meet stupid quite often on my blog. They usually write things like Mother Nature love us, God created this planet as perfect, we are the Chosen ones we have not to worry, the ones having a shitty life deserve it and so on.
If this link still works, watch the Age of stupid. Better, rent it. Fairly enough, this movie is not a catastrophic sci-fi: it is a documentary on past and present situations. Make this movie watched: maybe after it less people will care about their own square of sand while the tsunami approaches..
Hard disk crash? Data recovery? Data Doctor Recovery!
October 17, 2009My eight years old DiamondMAX_Plus Maxtor 120Gb hard disk died last week. First I thought it was only a Windows problem, as the error message I got after crash was: “Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/CONFIG/SYSTEM”. However, when I tried to access the command prompt through the Windows repair console, the new message was: “Disc unreadable” !!! Read the rest of this entry »
After watching U.S television channels for one week …
October 11, 2009
… (just from now and then, not 24 hours/day):
- I appreciate my hotel supplied me with advanced tooth paste
- I got scared I have breast cancer, even if I am a man
- I believe cheerleaders are necessary for a rugby team to win
- I am sure David Letterman was caught into a trap
- Mr. T convinced me I absolutely need his Flavorwave cooking device (watch post’s movie)
- I feel extremely fat and I want to buy that amazing contour sculpting device system
Sadly, if I order it today, the delivery will take from 7 to 10 days. Please, help me finding it in Europe. I see already my six packs developing in just four weeks – as seen on tv.
3 days in close touch with a real American Dream!
October 9, 2009Was this the most exciting summit I’ve ever been? Absolutely YES.
What about 3 days long debate on one of the hottest challenges human kind has to face? What about excellent panels made of the world best experts? What about know-how exchange among researchers, engineers, lawyers, water and farm managers, business planners, business coaches, energy, environmental and political top figures?
How stimulating can be watching such a young association with such positive visions making its first step in the real world? A lot more than what you think.
And last but not least, social networking requirements have been fully accomplished. I hope my suitcase will not be too heavy because of all the business cards I collected.
Now, the question is: what to do in the next two days of holiday under the sunny skies of the West Coast?

Surviving the froths of the mobile phone market
September 26, 2009It took 7 hours (!) online to choose which mobile phone I should buy. That happened because what I am looking for is a quadband mobile phone with … a good audio quality! That’s it. I need a phone not for listening music but to understand my caller.
If you’ve time to loose, surf around and look for: call quality, voice quality and Akustikleistung related to mobile phone. Just read comments from people who bought the phone. I was shocked reading shoppers of high end phones (iPhone included) complaining about the poor voice quality.
With a price threshold around 400-500 CHF, the Nokia 6700 classic seems to be a good choice. Please, let me know if I am wrong – I did not order it yet.
